What truly makes us different are these five things:
1. Agile Management and Process. In the end it's really all about people, not tools or technology. We use modern management ideas borrowed from the agile software development and lean manufacturing worlds to quickly deliver on the challenges our projects bring to us. This allows us to get the most from our teams, and to move fast on many issues at the same time, while keeping the clients involved, in control, and informed at every step of the project.
2. Building Information Modeling and Integrated Practice. A major part of any project is managing all the information therein. We use the latest in Building Information Modeling applications along with project Wikis and online document management systems to increase efficiency, reduce errors, and encourage tight communication within the team. This allows us to welcome changes, move quickly while keeping everyone together, and it allows our clients to know exactly where things are and what's going on within their Projects at any time.
3. Automated fabrication and mass customization. While we might not have flying cars and jet packs in the 21st century, we do have big robots that make things. We use computer automated tools to directly produce parts for the project right from the same design files we're using to generate the presentation, shop, and contract drawings. This automation reduces the price of custom work into the range of more typical mass produced work while retaining all of the design intent and creativity. This allows us to deliver totally unique and wildly creative projects yet keep to accessible budgets.
4. Sustainable materials and building practices. Building something always means something else is destroyed. We're in it for the long haul, so we focus on using sustainable, recycled, and/or local materials and labor. We don't want to work with toxic materials or in a bad environment and our clients shouldn't have to live with such things either. We also try to make our projects in the
