At Walmart, enhancing quality is integral to how we innovate.

I want to pass along my appreciation to you regarding the AOEM build-out. The willingness for all teams to collaborate AND to complete ahead of schedule is not lost on the AOEM team! Allowing us to get into the space early helps mitigate risk with the overall project schedule. It may seem like a small item, but it only takes a few small successes to create a great win!"

Director, AOEM Manufacturing (Garmin) | Garmin Building 5 - AOEM Buildout Project

Partnering with McCownGordon on our biofuel expansion project has been a game-changer. During preconstruction, they introduced the latest laser scanning technology, providing us with an accurate picture of the existing facility down to the millimeter. This approach, which also incorporated 3D photography, significantly enhanced our existing facility's documentation, and helped us visualize how the new equipment fit into the space. Their proactive planning and innovative ideas saved us an incredible amount of time. McCownGordon streamlined the design process, resulting in substantial time and cost savings. We are so happy with the results."

The value McCownGordon brought to our project was priceless. They provided technology innovation we had not seen before that allowed for maximized communication and quality construction. I was very impressed with the communication between the field and office. I can’t say enough about the quality of the employees at McCownGordon and I look forward to the next project."
