As the general contractor, Precision will provide all the necessary materials, labor, equipment, and supervision in order to fulfill the scope of construction. In addition, Precision will provide the following:

• Perform an extensive evaluation of the current sewage pump system and provide recommendations
• Create and continue to maintain the project schedule
• Prepare and deliver Quality Control Plan, Safety Plan, Product Data, and Shop Drawing Submittals for BOP Review
• Submit Certified Material Test Reports and MSDS’s
• Coordinate meetings with the owner

Adam Strauss, General Contractor at Precision, said: “It’s been really interesting working inside of a prison! Although sewage isn’t glamorous, it’s crucial – especially in such a large facility that needs to be functioning 24/7. I’m happy to be a part of something so important.”

The project completion is anticipated to be in the second week of September 2019.
