Our Position
We are in a very unique position within the foodservice industry in that we provide both design and procurement
services that are equally respected.
There are few firms who can match our capabilities in both design and
procurement. Whether you select us for design or design/build services, there are numerous advantages to our
position.
We are often involved in a project from start to finish and, as a result, must defend
our documentation in the field as both a designer and purveyor. With a single point of responsibility, there
are no fingers to point. The accuracy of our documentation is a necessity, not a luxury.
Due to our first hand involvement in the field, our design skills are always improving.
We are amongst the first to learn of code issues. The interaction with other trades in the field also provides
valuable information, which is incorporated into our designs. The inclusion of such feedback reduces the potential
for conflicts in the field, reduces cost, and improves the overall atmosphere of the job site.
As one of the nation’s top foodservice equipment and supplies manufacturers and providers
(based on total volume), we have direct relationships with many of the industry’s world leading manufacturers.
These relationships, built over the course of many years and projects, are extremely valuable. At times, we will
involve the manufacturer in the design process. Other times, we will leverage our relationships and buying power
to resolve problems or offer solutions that might not otherwise be available.
Our knowledge of equipment costs enables us to provide accurate cost estimates that
lead to proper allocation of a project’s funding and helps prevent miscalculations.
Our array of services, including design, equipment supply, and small wares procurement,
has us looking at each end user as a potential long-term client. We are a company that has been built on
relationships, and we have every incentive to make sure that all members of both the design and operations
teams are completely satisfied.
