    Project Delivery Icon

    Saunders Heath understands each project requires a specific delivery approach. Whether serving as a construction manager, design-builder or general contractor, we aim to provide integrated services delivered by proven leaders across the full continuum of design, construction and facility operations. Our project experience ranges from multi-million dollar ground up facilities to minor tenant finish spaces and facility maintenance projects.

    We employ lean principles and the latest in virtual technologies to optimize value, eliminate waste and assure our clients are engaged throughout the project process.

    Saunders Heath understands the transition into a new facility is one of the most critical and stressful components of the project process. Our construction teams are trained to support this process with proven best practices in move management, tool and equipment installation, commissioning, and warranty management to ensure the transition to sustainable operations is achieved smoothly and efficiently.

    Additionally, Saunders Heath has a dedicated team that specializes in ongoing facility upgrades and micro fabrication equipment installations. From minor tenant finish projects to complicated semi-conductor fabrication facility installations, our team has refined the planning and execution processes to meet critical deadlines and ensure timely, accurate and efficient installations. We understand the critical nature of these installations and their impact on our client’s core business processes. Accordingly, we have developed a loyal, highly-specialized group of key subcontractor partners to support this complex work program. This group has worked together for years and continues to refine its delivery processes to the benefit of our clients.

    We believe it is the primary responsibility of every employee to ensure we are fully implementing best practices, continuous training and safety management systems throughout every phase of construction on all our projects.
