Our Approach
AKS takes a uniquely multi-disciplinary approach to construction support. Our construction team consists of senior construction managers, inspectors, licensed civil engineers, and certified arborists. They actively apply their experience in safety, project documentation, labor compliance, environmental permitting, erosion control, scheduling, and cost control. In keeping with AKS’ approach to projects, the team is experienced with all aspects of development including land use planning, dry utilities, stormwater, water, wastewater, roads/streets, trails, parks, and buildings. Construction managers begin work on projects in the design stage and are consulted along the way to make sure the plans are realistic and fit within the construction budget. The construction support team is always on the lookout for potential issues that the team can address before they become change orders.
