John Mark Construction Company named TOP 5 General Contractors in Pasadena, CA
Challenge
Lisi Aerospace spent 3 years working with internal staff to consider and budget a new plating line building to support their high-end aerospace fastener manufacturing business. Lisi has plants around the world, and inherited a collection of buildings over 50 years old, owned by the City of Torrance, adjacent to the Torrance Airport when they purchased Hi Shear. Internal staff was not able to consider all the elements of master planning or get equivalent cost estimates for accomplishable construction elements.
Solution
Jack Kozakar assembled a team of experts to review the mountain of paperwork that Lisi had accumulated in their years of planning, and reduced that mountain to a concise scope, site master plan, alternative master plan and RFP requirements. Jack helped select the right General Contractor, the right GMP/design-build delivery methodology and negotiated a contract that satisfied Lisi’s needs for tight controls on Budget and Quality. Among the subprojects that emerged: process planning, raw materials planning, ideal factory flow analysis, complete facility electrical service and primary distribution upgrade, parking lot upgrades, site security upgrades, various phasing plans, and various safety upgrades.
