We are a development company based in Seattle, WA and this was our first construction project in the Salt Lake City market. They have a capable and diligent team, and we’ve established an excellent working relationship with them… We value our connection with Kier. It’s clear they uphold a culture of integrity and performance, and we look forward to our continued working relationship with them in Utah.

The Kier team dealt with some really, we hope, once in a lifetime challenges including; covid delays, volatile materials costs, as well as the heaviest winter in 20 years to name a few. They met each challenge with a proactive, solutions-oriented attitude and they were able to deliver a tremendous project pretty close to the original construction time-line and on budget.

The team worked closely with me to overcome every obstacle placed in our way which included permit issues, prompting re-engineering design conflicts, and concurrently juggling numerous subcontractors to avoid losing momentum or causing delays. Our weekly meetings were key to anticipating problems and generally resulted in action plans which solved the issue. This project concluded with an excellent finished product which is now operating successfully.

The great success of this project can be attributed to the Kier Construction Team. From Estimating, to Project Management, Site Supervision, Subcontractor Selection, and down to every detail on the project, Kier proved to be second to none!

Kier’s organizational and management expertise along with their anticipation of scheduling and cost was instrumental when dealing with sub-contractors, city officials, architects, engineers, and COVID pandemic. Kier’s commitment and attention to detail was also integral to the success and completion of our project. Brayden Burrell and his team were knowledgeable and exhibited professionalism and a well-received proactive approach to keep the project running smoothly.

Working with Kier Corporation I found that their team was very competent and professional… Most importantly a major construction project will always have unplanned issues that will occur that need to be worked through. I found that Kier representatives were especially interested in leaving a legacy of building an important community asset such as a fire station that will serve a community for years to come.

Your team’s onsite work in trying to save money and come up with ideas to include cost saving tradeoffs when a field condition blind-sided everyone is most appreciated. The level of attention to detail paid by the team assisted in interpreting the architect’ drawings when there could have been a misreading. I can honestly say that it is a please working with Kier.

From the beginning or our relationship, Kier Construction was proactive and responsive. Their project managers and site supervisors were very good at communicating both with us as owners and with our engineers and architects. We never had to guess about the stage of the project or the progress being made. Regular coordination meetings were brief and effective. As a general contractor, they held all of their subcontractors to high quality standards and delivered an excellent finished product. The onsite staff was personable and willing to adapt as the needs of the project evolved. They were invaluable in keeping the project on schedule even when it meant becoming extremely flexible on their part to allow outside contractors onto the site before their appointed time.

Kier’s business development and the estimating team worked with our group to help align this project to a price that fit our budget to get this project rolling forward. In addition, Kier’s estimating team was professional and efficient in the startup stages of this project. The on-site project team continued Kier’s professionalism at the conception throughout the project… Our team has been developing projects for decades, and Kier Construction was top-notch.
