“The construction industry’s competitive landscape forces us into price wars to win projects. We have grown accustomed to perpetuating a self-defeating cycle, where we willingly reduce our fee until there’s hardly anything left.” Keyan Zandy explains several reasons why this cycle is destructive for us – as individual businesses and as a collective industry – in this article for Constructor Magazine:?https://lnkd.in/guFNyRDc #WeAreSkilesGroup #BetterWayToBuild

We recently enjoyed a Hawaiian-themed family picnic with our team and their families at the Frisco RoughRiders Field. We had a ball (see what we did there?) floating in the lazy river, enjoying a cookout—and watching the Frisco Roughriders vs. Springfield Cardinals game, of course! This video shares some of our time together, and captures our staff's feelings about the event. #WeAreSkilesGroup

September is National Suicide Prevention Month, and because workers in construction have one of the highest suicide rates compared to other industries, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is urging employers to discuss suicide prevention efforts and help raise awareness. Our Director of Safety, Brian Webster, will be hosting safety standdowns across our job sites this entire month to bring this topic out in the open and top of mind. These conversations can be awkward to have, but simply sharing facts and available resources for help is much needed. Valuable information on this subject can be found at the following links:?https://lnkd.in/dZ3p36t?here:?https://lnkd.in/g-NPEdvU?here:?https://lnkd.in/g3NnpWft?and here:?https://lnkd.in/g4gft9v Please help us in getting the word out to support all workers in our industry. #OSHA #NationalSuicidePreventionMonth #WeAreSkilesGroup #SGStigmaFree #YouAreNotAlone

We are terribly sad to share the news that our friend and employee, Buddy Brumley, passed away on Sunday. It’s difficult to articulate the scale of this loss, not just to his family and all of us at Skiles Group, but to scores of others in our industry community. If we had to pick one word to describe him, it would be "dedicated." Buddy was a selfless servant leader who was tirelessly supportive, loyal, patient, and kind—completely dedicated to his company, profession, and people. We’re a better construction company because of him, and he is irreplaceable. We’ll share funeral details when we learn them; in the meantime, we welcome you to share your memories and stories in the comments.

Where would we be without our wonderful staff? From the office to the field, every single person who works with us makes the work we do possible, and we’re so grateful they’re part of our team. Please join us in saying “happy anniversary” to Kelly Groves, David Andrews, CCIFP, Ryan Pence, Sean Hughes, Dara Davulcu, Brian Webster, and Arturo Martinez, who celebrated a milestone this month! #WeAreSkilesGroup

“Known for its relentless demands – long hours, design and financial constraints, and unwavering deadlines – the construction industry presents a distinct set of obstacles to achieving a harmonious work-life balance.” Keyan Zandy explores four methods to actively prioritize self-care, both individually and within our professional environment in this article for Constructor Magazine, here:?https://lnkd.in/ghUQbXhq #WeAreSkilesGroup #BetterWayToBuild

Peterson Health has recently finished construction on their new three-story, 43,300 SF ambulatory surgery center (ASC) complex. The facility includes four operating rooms and four endoscopy rooms, effectively doubling their capacity to accommodate the high demand for outpatient surgical services. The second floor houses medical offices and a modern conference space, while the third floor has shell space available for future expansion to serve the needs of the local community. Seamlessly integrated into their scenic campus, the complex features a welcoming, expansive canopy, stone facades that reflect the charm of the Hill Country, and abundant glazing to flood the interior with natural light. Sleek metal panels contribute to the building's sophisticated and technologically advanced design. Congratulations to Peterson Health,?Tyler Calder?(with ADAMS Management Services Corporation), Jonathan Crookham and?Mark Criswell, AIA, LEED AP?(with GUIDE Architecture, LLC),?Kevin Miller,?Jake Thomas,?Derek Cornell, and?Danna Jensen?(with Certus Consulting Engineers); our team: Sean Hughes, Sean Williams, Phillip Rose, Seth Harrison, Dwayne Hodges,?Kari Westrup; and our wonderful trade partners named in the comments on the completion of this important project! #WeAreSkilesGroup?#BetterWayToBuild?#ConstructionSimplified?#LeanConstruction?#BuildTexasProud
