With over 200 years of combined project management experience and more than $400 million in glazing contracts performed under our belt, we leverage our in-depth knowledge to support architects, façade engineers, and contractors in making critical decisions early in the process.
Here’s what Design Assist with CGC entails:
Early Collaboration
From the outset, we work alongside your design team to help shape the façade. We offer valuable insight into glazing materials, systems, and their performance in various environments. Our goal is to bring your vision to life while ensuring the design is functional, durable, and cost-effective.
Feasibility & Budgeting
By engaging with us early, we help identify potential challenges in the design phase, reducing costly revisions later. Our team provides precise Class D budgeting, allowing you to allocate resources effectively and avoid project delays due to unforeseen glazing-related issues.
INTEGRATION WITH OTHER DISCIPLINES
A major benefit of our Design Assist service is how we help coordinate the glazing scope with other construction disciplines. By addressing the technical and logistical requirements upfront, we eliminate potential conflicts with structural elements, building systems, and mechanical trades, keeping the project moving smoothly.
STREAMLINING PROJECT EXECUTION
Our early involvement helps accelerate the construction schedule. By addressing all details from the start—such as material procurement, custom shop drawings, and production timelines—we ensure a seamless transition from design to fabrication, installation, and final completion. This reduces delays and streamlines the overall construction process.
ONGOING SUPPORT AND ADAPTATION
We don’t just help during the design phase—we provide continuous support throughout the project lifecycle. If any changes or unforeseen challenges arise during construction, we quickly adapt and work alongside you to find efficient, cost-effective solutions.
BALANCE DESIGN AND ENGINEERING
By incorporating Design Assist, you gain a partner who understands both the technical and practical aspects of glazing, ensuring your project stays on schedule, within budget, and fully aligned with your design intentions. Let us help you transform your vision into reality while avoiding delays and disruptions along the way.
