Efficiency. Collaboration. Simplification. These are all advantages experienced with Egan’s Construction team. With multiple, in-house trades, Egan provides an opportunity to work cohesively with a single contact for a job that could require five or more different trades. This is accomplished with streamlined planning, prefabrication, and collaborative jobsite and project management.
The success of any job is dependent on finding the right team. With our collaborative mechanical, electrical, and systems approach, we have positioned ourselves to be the best possible partner for any construction project.
– Bret Young, Egan Company Vice President
In August 2016, the Construction team evolved under the single leadership of Bret Young, Egan Company Vice President. With over 28 years of experience in the construction industry, Bret will be managing all aspects of construction – from project planning and estimating to design, engineering, and field services – ensuring we continue to keep our promises and create one construction customer experience.
Early detection with a fire alarm system is the key to protecting people and property. But it’s hard to tell if they are fully operational just by looking at them – that’s why it pays to schedule Egan annually for fire alarm inspections.
The inspection will not only determine if a property is code-compliant, but also provide feedback on potential areas to upgrade. And buildings are even protected outside of an annual inspection with our 24/7 emergency support.
When it comes to Egan Company’s new Champlin facility, collaboration is the name of the game. With the consolidation of four metro offices into two – the new Champlin location and corporate office/shops in Brooklyn Park – more Egan employees are now able to work together under one roof. The result is improved production and work-flow; and the benefits are seen no better than in the renovation process itself, during which Egan was able to experience its own capabilities first-hand. The renovations began soon after the purchase of the building, starting in September 2015. By the end of the project, Egan had completed 75 to 80 percent of the retrofit in-house.
The decision to buy the manufacturing plant was made not only to meet growing needs, but also in order to provide customers with a more seamless delivery and overall experience, starting with Egan’s Tom Buirge – the construction manager who was appointed the ‘single point’ on behalf of all trades on the renovation project. Having an Egan project leader coordinating all trades helped ensure deadlines were enforced, but also created flexibility with timelines.
Since the 1960s, Egan Company has provided operational support for buildings and their internal systems. Egan’s in-house 24/7/365 call center dispatches qualified trades personnel to service building infrastructures and controls.
Promises Made
Staying nimble and accurate is crucial to success, and Egan Company project managers are seeking every edge available to make sure they’re prepared to fulfill customers’ needs. One strategy paying off exceptionally well is the use of tablets equipped with construction apps on project sites.
