PROJECT MANANGEMENT

At American Glass Solutions, our unwavering commitment to project management lies at the heart of our success, fostering long-term relationships with developers, general contractors, and architects. Our operations teams prioritize vigilance in schedule adherence, unwavering dedication to uncompromising quality, and meticulous cost control to ensure timely delivery of the enclosure scope. This dedication to a seamless project delivery journey commences early during preconstruction services, maintaining continuity of accountability throughout the project’s lifecycle. Our proven process and steadfast commitment to operational continuity, refined over the completion of numerous remarkable facade and curtain wall installations, mitigate inherent risks, enhancing the predictability of performance, schedule adherence, and cost management.

BEHIND THE SCENES:

Before the first unit arrives on-site, a comprehensive groundwork is laid by our experienced team to ensure a successful delivery of the enclosure scope. The leadership and project management oversee design development, means and methods planning, production engineering, fabrication, and assembly, orchestrating a backlog of completed units prepared for future delivery to the site.

THE ROLE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT:

Managing the complex logistics of project delivery is undertaken by our team of experienced and empowered project management personnel, who receive extensive training and on-the-job experience before taking on project leadership. Understanding the critical importance of on-time and on-budget delivery, our project management professionals ensure a seamless project execution from inception to completion.

PROCUREMENT:

Our project management team casts a wide net of material suppliers and manufacturing solutions, ensuring that we deliver the quality and economy specific to each project. With diverse materials featuring in the architecture of building envelopes, our extensive network of vendor relationships spans North America, Europe, and Asia, offering us unmatched flexibility in material sourcing for dozens of domestic projects.

MANUFACTURING:

For projects where domestic supply offers advantages or is desired, American Glass Solutions maintains both dedicated fabrication and assembly facilities, as well as qualified domestic suppliers. Final assembly often occurs in regional proximity to the building site, affording us unmatched flexibility in delivery.

QUALITY ASSURANCE:

With years of experience in delivering complex unitized enclosures, we have developed detailed quality assurance and quality control programs. These comprehensive programs, whether implemented in our Enclos shop or that of a qualified supplier, prioritize identifying and resolving all quality and tolerance matters before materials leave the shop. Each program is customized for the unique design and delivery characteristics of each project, ensuring confidence in our field installation crews to execute efficient installations.

CENTER STAGE – EXECUTING ON SITE:

The building site holds paramount importance in the construction process, where coordination among contracting trades must be precise. Consequently, all precursor activities, including design, engineering, fabrication, assembly, and delivery, must anticipate site-specific requirements and develop effective installation strategies to ensure optimal on-site performance.

SITE OPERATIONS:

Field operations form a core strength of American Glass Solutions, distinguishing us within the building community. Our on-site performance effectively mitigates risk for design and build teams, helping architects realize their design vision while supporting general contractors in maintaining project schedules. Our reputation for excellence on building sites has earned us numerous projects and many repeat customers.

UNION FIELD PERSONNEL:

At American Glass Solutions, we take pride in fostering long and productive relationships with both ironworker and glazier unions in each region. Our mobile group of superintendents, backed by national support, efficiently manages field operations, providing training, promoting safety and quality standards, and coordinating with labor unions. Our skilled union crews exemplify our commitment to excellence on building sites and set us apart from competitors.

SAFETY: WORK SAFE, HOME SAFE

At American Glass Solutions, the safety and well-being of our employees are of paramount importance. We uphold an uncompromising commitment to the health and safety of ourselves and our teammates, ensuring that every Enclos employee returns home safely. Our unwavering belief is that the safest jobs are also the most profitable and productive, making no compromises when it comes to safety. Safety remains our highest priority, guiding our every action and decision, and shaping our unwavering commitment to project management excellence.
