Sargent’s Experience

Alternative-delivery projects are some of the most exciting that we build, thanks to their collaborative nature. Our resume includes alternative-delivery projects with values in the tens of millions of dollars, and we’ve done our best to provide valuable pre-construction insight and construction expertise on each one.

This includes tactics like optimizing site grading eliminates the need to export surplus soils from the project site or import soils to meet the project design limits or processing aggregates needed for the project within project limits.

Minimized Downtime

We respect the resource that is your infrastructure's uptime. Downtime of utilities or roads applies undue pressure to the remaining infrastructure and causes frustration with the public. Safe and efficient return of your facility's operation — and the savings related to reduced project durations — checks every box in our core purpose and values.

Trusted and Collaborative Team Members

The Sargent project management team has centuries of experience managing both our own work and that of subcontractors. Whether it's coordination between subcontractors, other contractors, or the general public, Sargent's willingness and ability to lead cooperatively is second to none.

Creating Win-Win Propositions

We love what we do, and it shows in our work and job sites. However, we're only happy if everyone wins. We win when all stakeholders in a project — including the owner, subcontractors, and the public — win first. It's why every project we work on is a true labor of love.

Delivering Real Value

While we're not always the lowest bidder, we're always determined to bring real value to every project. This applies to the estimating and pre-construction processes as much as it does the construction itself. Thanks to our core purpose and values, we aim to be the most valuable contractor you've ever worked with.

Always Doing the Right Thing

As one of our core values states, we conduct ourselves with honesty and integrity regardless of personal or financial consequences. Sargent’s employee-owners refuse to dignify a mistake by burying it. In the unlikely event of an error, our people are duty-bound to make things right, as they’ve proven for decades.

“Sargent is one of the most responsive contractors I know. When there are issues, they don’t shy away from them. Sargent steps up to the plate every time.”
