How a project will be designed and constructed, or choosing the right delivery method, is one of the most important decisions every owner must make before embarking on a construction project. We help coach you through the entire process, from start to finish, guiding you and your project in a successful direction.
Meyer Najem’s Special Projects Division performs tenant improvement and renovation work along with ground-up projects. Our team has the skills and experience to meet the unique requirements of construction projects ranging from Conception to Stamp Drawings, along with critical fast-paced smaller projects, while focusing on flexibility and efficiency. Our clients benefit from our vast industry relationships and our full spectrum of services in order to obtain the best pricing possible. We are able to meet both their budgets and quicker turn-around times.
Led by Maynard Soukup, who has been in the construction industry for more than 25 years, Meyer Najem’s Special Projects Division offers the following innovative solutions:
No matter the size or type of the project, customer satisfaction is our top priority.
During the pre-construction phase, we work with you to finalize budgets, designs, construction drawings, permitting, schedules and logistics. We take care to include every single line item so your project runs as smoothly as possible, without any surprises down the road. Every detail is important to your budget and your peace of mind. Throughout the project, we present all viable options, make a recommendation, and give you enough time to make decisions carefully and thoughtfully.
With a focus on achieving your goals, Meyer Najem works in tandem with the design team to select systems and materials, as well as adjust designs for constructability. This proven methodology guides the design process, establishes milestone dates and develops accurate budget estimates.
As the building owner, you are at the heart of our construction process and have continuous visibility into our progress through check-in meetings and updates. We use technology such as drones to capture aerial views, iPads onsite to view the same planning documents at all times, and an online project management tool so our communication is as efficient, productive and transparent as possible. We honor our deadlines and ensure quality and safety, always staying respectful of your time and resources. Through the LEAN process, we reduce redundancies, streamline communication, and ensure alignment across all project teams: from owner to architect, engineer to subcontractor.

We guide you through a smooth handoff process including walk-throughs, video reference manuals from our construction team, and digital records of blueprints, manuals, warranties and materials information so you understand how every piece of equipment works together to keep your building running. As we wrap-up the construction process, we complete the finishing touches in a 30- or 60-day punchlist, ensuring that your building is just as you imagined. And after you’ve been in your building for a year, we’ll stop by for a walk-through and address anything that’s causing you trouble or needs fixing.
Improving things such as energy efficiency and water efficiency greatly reduce the monthly utility bills, as LEED- certified buildings cost less to operate. Energy and water bills can be reduced by as much as 40%
Studies show that buildings that employ LEED have higher occupancy rates, lower tenant turn-over, and lease more quickly and for more dollars per square foot than non LEED-certified buildings. There are also incentives like tax rebates and utility programs available to many LEED-certified buildings.
LEED saves energy, water and other resources, reducing the overall environmental impact. Additionally, buildings that are built and operated in environmentally-friendly ways often contain less unhealthy indoor environments that can cause absenteeism and decreased productivity for employees. The bottom line is, the healthier your indoor environment is, the more comfortable it will be.
