February 24, 2020C1S and Vision+Architecture Studio Partner as your Turnkey PACE Project Team
As your development advisers and PACE experts, Vision+Architecture is committed to assembling a full turnkey project delivery team to help you get the most out of your existing investment and do the right thing. An integral part of that turnkey team is the engineers and construction managers who begin the project with the end result in mind, to help see your vision become a reality – maximizing efficiency, within budget, and on schedule.
The sustainability experts at C1S Group are part of the project from inception to completion, helping property owners make the best decisions for their buildings and the environment. C1S, engineers and contractors, have long served as LEED and sustainability consultants for design build projects, helping clients with energy and environmentally efficient initiatives.
“Often, these sustainability focused aspects of a construction project are eliminated due to cost – they become ‘want to haves’ rather than ‘need to haves,’” says Cameron Smith with C1S. “But PACE has created a low-cost, long-term vehicle for funding energy efficiency and conservation aspects by including these as part of the entire construction project and budget. The PACE program enables owners to get all of the things they want for their property to be efficient and be good for the environment, too. It’s a winning situation all around.”
Like Vision+Architecture Studio, the team at C1S is passionate about helping owners implement sustainable solutions that drive business forward without interrupting operations. The group has been involved in numerous LEED buildings, but sees PACE as the next step in making a huge impact on both the operational costs for a building and the environment.
“Making good decisions for the Earth shouldn’t have to come down to cost of implementation. PACE ensures the tools and funding are there from the beginning. It helps a small business owner realize their passion projects, lower operational costs, and operate efficiently; all while making the world a better place for our children and grandchildren.”
Having a well-rounded development team for your PACE project expedites the construction process, getting you into your building on schedule and seeing an immediate return on the investment. By working alongside the PACE experts, architects and project managers at Vision+Architecture from beginning to completion, the engineers and construction managers at C1S Group are able to implement design solutions in the field – keeping the project on track, saving money and opening quicker.
“As the construction manager, I understand what it takes to get the building completed, so I start with the end in mind during pre-construction. The collaboration between C1S and Vision+Architecture from the very beginning of a project ensures we make decisions throughout the process to stay on schedule and budget – and do right for the environment.”
