Performance Feedback
What Our Customers Are Saying
JB CFM
I could go on and on about RKE exceptional overall performance, scheduling abilities, technical proficiency, and ability to control costs. RKE properly staffs the project with knowledgeable and motivated onsite field personnel and off-site project management personnel align the documentation with their suppliers and construction forces. This contractor can self-perform work as needed as well as manage multiple specialty subcontractors and suppliers through each phase of construction. In addition, RKE has great communication and coordination skills which are key in both a fast-moving construction site that is closed to the public and coordinating phased work on or adjacent to an active VA medical center that is open to the public, where public access must be safely maintained during the entire construction project duration. I highly recommend RKE for your next project.
