CORD's Responsibility
Construction Management
Key Points

Cord was hired as a construction manager for a new 20,000 square-foot bank location in Rockford, Ill. The project was designed to accommodate multi-tenant capabilities as well as house the local headquarters for Rockford Bank & Trust, an expanding regional banking institution. The high-end finishes included in the design created an elegant environment for customers and employees.
Cord was hired early in the planning stages to provide assistance with budgeting and scheduling in relation to the overall building design. As part of Cord’s construction management services, costs were evaluated for various heating, air conditioning and ventilation as well as building envelope systems for the client. Cord prepared the site and coordinated installation of a temporary banking facility for use during the construction of the main building.
As a result of Cord’s involvement, the project met the client’s budgetary and scheduling goals.
