“Safety performance was first class and we observed that Caddell placed a very high priority on site safety and health. …The site was located in the middle of a busy college campus and effective safety protections and precautions were critical.”

“You can be very proud of what your team accomplished.”

- Gary Pemberton, Project Engineer, USACE, Kansas City District

“Pull Planning saved our schedule and gave us a practical way forward. This intense interaction with the subs also identified some schedule busting elements that the design documents had missed. We not only met our original schedule completion date, but finished critical activities early and ended the project with an official “Outstanding” performance rating in all categories— including scheduling.”

- Jeremy Clegg, Caddell Project Manager

“The Contractor’s project team was comprised of qualified individuals and their communication and early identification of issues led to early resolution on many items. All in all it was a very enjoyable project team to get to be apart of.”

- Aaron Sundberg, Construction Manager, NAVFAC Hawaii

“This project is a shining example that a project performed in a true spirit of partnering can produce a quality facility”

- Ms. Donna Lamb, GSA Contracting Officer

“I wanted to commend your project team for a job very well done.  I have had the privilege of designing numerous exchange and commissary facilities and would count this project as among the best managed and organized of my career.”

“I have been serving the Savannah District’s Fort Bragg office since 2000 and would rate this project among the best of my career.”

- Karl A. Gabzdyl, Resident Engineer, USACE / Fort Bragg Office

“Navigating extreme logistical challenges, a multi-national workforce, and an ever-evolving security environment were all uniquely amplified in this project, all while working on an active post whose critical mission could not be interrupted. The Caddell team did all of this and achieved the project’s objectives. Congratulations on a job well done!”
