Logic [loj-ik] - principles of reasoning and sound judgement
Core Values are the guiding principles that outline our business goals - what we want to stand for and what we want our team (and partners) to strive to be the best at. These are a part of our culture, and how we evaluate our performance and success.
And it happens to be a clever acronym...
Organized
Gratitude
Collaboration
Leadership
Innovation
- Committed to listening and remaining focused on our client’s goals and objectives - we help to physically build a tool for our clients to accomplish their goals.
- We have designed hundreds of projects from backyard pergolas to large commercial developments, worked with many municipalities and overcome hurdles to successfully deliver for our clients – it is our responsibility as leaders to share our experiences and anticipate potential hurdles whenever possible.
- Lead by example, with integrity, and accountability for our decisions and actions.
- We have the courage to not always support the popular answer or solution; we are committed to finding the right solution for our client, staying open-minded throughout the process, and reaching out to our partners for specialist expertise when beneficial. (see “collaborate” below)
- Often the project team “core”; staying organized, timely, proactive and a source of open and honest communication is essential to success.
- Keep small firm simplicity – client and partnership focused, budget conscious, value driven and no bureaucracy.
- Prepared for and engaged in meetings; always strategically planning to deliver milestones on schedule.
- You, our client, are the most important component to our firm’s success – we are committed to not forgetting that.

- As a business, maintain a culture that attracts, develops, & retains the best talent to serve our clients.
- Constantly exploring value engineering and cost avoidance solutions.
- Frequently implement process and procedural improvements to more efficiently support change management and speed to market.

- We empower our partners to share their expertise and contribute their opinions and experiences.
- Build teams specific to each project, with appropriate and timely involvement from civil, structural, MEP, and GC partners.
