Work with us

For partners who would rather co-develop than hire a builder.

Some relationships do not fit a construction contract. A partner with money to invest does not need a general contractor so much as a partner who can find good projects and build them.

That is the third way to work with us, alongside hiring us as a general contractor or buying steel from us.

What we contribute

What we bring to a deal.

Not a bid. Our own construction costs, projects we have found ourselves, and the building risk we carry ourselves.

Sites, permits, and approvals
Sites we have found and taken through permits and approvals ourselves, with the local government work already done rather than still to be discovered.
A real cost basis
Because we make the structure ourselves and build the project, our construction budget is grounded in production cost, not a hopeful bid.
Execution risk we hold ourselves
We are not passing construction risk through to a third party and then explaining it to you. The build is ours.
Delivery you can underwrite
One team carries the project from site to energization, with the schedule and scope risk held by us.

Land to light switch

We are in the deal at every stage.

A partner is not handing work to a builder and hoping. We are on the same side of the table from finding the site to running the finished project.

  1. 01

    Find

    We originate the site and carry entitlement and permitting risk ourselves, so that risk sits with us, not you.

  2. 02

    Plan

    We model project cost and revenue and size the capital plan to what the asset can support.

  3. 03

    Fund

    Capital stack structured before notice to proceed: senior debt, JV and sponsor equity, public-partner capital, and available federal and state incentives.

  4. 04

    Build

    We build to defense standards with steel from our own U.S. plant, and one team stays accountable for the schedule.

  5. 05

    Own

    We retain an equity position alongside local and institutional partners. Lifecycle operating cost is our cost, so it is engineered out during design.

  6. 06

    Repeat

    Proven designs, our own steel plant, and experienced crews let us repeat the model in the next market.

Structures

How partnerships are set up.

  • Development joint ventures on sites we have found and secured
  • Programmatic partnerships across multiple sites in a defined market
  • Capital partnership on energy and housing projects inside a master plan
  • Institutional partnerships of the kind that back firms like Wadsworth and Mortenson
