Rubinov Construction procures projects privately utilizing various methodologies, including design, budget, schedule, safety, and project management. Effective planning is crucial to support successful project execution and ideal outcomes. Rubinov Construction generates detailed plans and maintains careful oversight of all projects in-house. With every project, we consider many factors, including environmental impact, local building authority regulations, economies pertaining to scale, availability of material, and qualified tradespeople. By remaining committed to following these practices, we avoid the cost and time overruns. Rubinov Construction offers significant experience in developing and managing global construction projects as well as government contracting projects. Our group has more than 25 years in managing complex construction projects on behalf of both private and public clients around the world. Projects range from multi-family apartments in Italy, to 500,000 SF industrial spaces in the Pacific Northwest, to 20,000 SF commercial buildings in the Southeast. We are uniquely qualified to support clients through the technical programming (project development), design and construction execution process.
