The Teamwork Behind Gulf Stream

Built on a Foundation of Excellence
When you work with the best general contractor, you ensure the best finished product. We are proud to provide comprehensive site development and construction services on all of our projects. Our principals and senior team members are active in the budgeting, planning, execution and completion of every Gulf Stream project to ensure the best results for our clients.
Gulf Stream’s proven methods of quality assurance allow us to avoid conflicts and potential problems in the field, thereby minimizing delays, budget overruns and re-work of installed infrastructure. The result is a project that remains on schedule, within budget, and satisfies our clients’ needs and exceeds their expectations.
Quality assurance helps minimize:
- Project delays
- Budget overruns
- Re-work of installed infrastructure
Timing is everything. With that in mind, we train each team member to understand not only their individual job, but also how all the components of a project come together. A sense of context combined with our advanced time-task resource software ensures adequate staffing and materials for each phase of development. Furthermore, we own and maintain a state of the art fleet of more than 700 pieces of heavy construction equipment, enabling us to schedule the equipment’s availability according to our clients’ needs. We use a critical path chart to guarantee that decisions and actions occur in a timely manner.
To complete tasks in a timely manner, we:
- Train each team member
- Utilize our advanced time-task resource software
- Own and maintain a fleet of heavy construction equipment
- Utilize a critical path chart
We know how much your investment in a project with Gulf Stream means to you. That’s why we calculate costs and research all possible alternatives as we plan each project to deliver a comprehensive budget that intersects the most cost effective and the highest quality components.
After performing a total budget evaluation, we adjust the budget according to design and documentation requirements to reflect realistic project costs. Our clients ultimately control any changes to the budget and estimated project costs.
At Gulf Stream Construction, our team:
- Calculates costs
- Researches all possible alternatives
- Evaluates, adjusts and delivers comprehensive budgets
Gulf Stream is committed to the equal opportunity for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) to participate on our projects.
