The Holmstad

Leopardo’s services were retained by Covenant Retirement Communities following schematic design. Our preconstruction role was predominately focused on the areas of value engineering, construction phase planning, scheduling and subcontractor bidding.

  • Over $1,000,000 in potential value engineering savings were identified – a substantial portion of these savings ideas were incorporated into the final construction documents
  • Project consisted of both new construction and remodeling, causing phasing to be an extremely important issue
  • A phasing plan was developed that allowed the briefest construction duration within an occupied facility
  • Ultimately, our highest priority was to minimize disruption to the resident community
  • Retailored a project stalled with design and budget obstacles into a successfully completed project
Leopardo is as sophisticated of a contractor as I see... they are a contractor's contractor.
