EMI architects has had a decades long working relationship with Jason Gassett in a Construction Manager capacity on both small and very large, complex construction projects.
It did not seem to matter how large or complex the project was, Jason's construction expertise and formidable people skills, always seemed to shine bright. Jason's ability to effectively manage large, complex projects involving multiple phases and staggered timelines has been impressive.
The problems, and associated pressures, that often accompany both small, but especially larger, more complex work, have been handled professionally, responsibly and always with the goal of looking ahead, solving the problems at hand, and moving forward in a positive and proactive manner.
Jason also has a unique ability to develop consensus agreements and understandings on construction related issues that are complex, sensitive and the substance of which involve considerable skill in navigating. These are qualities that Jason has nurtured and developed over decades of hard work. The result of this effort has been to build the trust and confidence of a team of Trade Contractors that he has developed solid relationships with over his many years in construction.
