Services - Architects
GSM architects are experts at listening to GSM clients. They combine what they hear with financial analysis, site analysis and the security matrix applied for safe and functional interiors. The result is a master plan that meets the clients’ needs for function, form and financial consideration.
GSM architects design to meet codes established by Federal and State Governments, as well as the American Correctional Association and American Disability Act.
GSM architects strive for detail, clarity and lack of ambiguity. A typical construction document may be 50 – 80 pages of technical blueprint pages. It shows the contractor the details of the facility. The quality of the documents GSM provides has historically enabled projects to be built for a lower price than many of our competitors.
Value engineering means GSM considers budget when planning. So adjustments can be made before construction begins. The firm continues to work closely with bidders throughout construction so that contract costs may be reduced without comprising either building quality or budget. In addition, GSM reviews contractor payment applications and the timing of cash payments.
GSM architects believe that administration and follow-through are essential. With periodic job-site inspections they assure that design intent, quality of construction, and the integrity of your building are maintained.
