“Bob Moberg and the staff at AE2S, provided the City of Williston Public Works, with excellent Owner’s Rep/Construction Project Service and advice, on our two-year, two-phase, $30 million-dollar facility construction project.
The space needs for our Public Works Department was quite apparent with our growing community. Our City limits has grown three times its original size and our current facility was no longer meeting our demands. Before we could build a new facility, we first needed to know what was going to be required to meet our size and space needs. AE2S staff prior to our construction project, conducted a complete assessment based on not only our current staff and equipment counts, but what we could expect in the future based on our current growth rate.
As Public Works Director, myself and our Engineering Department did not have the time or staff to manage such a detailed project. Bob Moberg and the AE2S staff kept in constant communication with our Architectural Group and our Construction Management team to assure us that the project was going to be completed on time and on budget. AE2S’s work continued after construction, following up on the completion of key punch-list items, training and warranty work.
Bob Moberg and AE2S staff maintained a continuous project and budget summary throughout the entire project. This information was kept up to date and available to us whenever needed and was also provided in a semi-monthly construction update meeting. The detailed project and budget summary kept us updated on aI initial construction items on Phases 1 and 2, all the owner added construction items and all our soft cost items.
I cannot express how professional and thorough the AE25 team is. This type of integrity was exactly what we were looking for as a partner in our project. We greatly appreciate the final facility results and the fact the we came in on time and on budget.
It was my pleasure working with AE2S and their staff. A special thank you to Bob Moberg for leading the project successfully.”
“We appreciate Bob Moberg’s help as we prepared for and orchestrated the relocation of public safety functions. This is a complex project, and your highly organized and professional approach was of great assistance to us. Thank you!”
