"Now that we are nearing the end of our building project, I just want you to know how great it is working with The Gale Company. You definitely understand our school's needs and are most cooperative; a real pleasure to work with.
The project manager is great and always helpful in moving things along and seems to have everything under control. The superintendent is terrific and seems to be able to juggle a thousand balls at once and never loses his composure, no matter what comes his way. Both men are true professionals and very kind; it's a real privilege working with this team." |

"My heart-felt gratitude for the wonderful work your company has done constructing our new school. Your commitment to our project as been exemplary. From spending time understanding our mission before construction and bringing vendors to visit to do the same, to completing construction in only 11 months, your firm has been terrific. Most impressive, all Gale employees who spent time repeatedly with us, performed their duties with unwavering professionalism and sincere concern that the job be done right. The Project Manager's leadership during construction was remarkable; he kept the project moving without delays, met with us weekly and organized information and tasks and was often found working on-site on weekends and evenings. The leadership provided by Gale Construction Company helped the architect, owner's representative, and Gale personnel work amicably from start to finish. Your firm's capabilities are extensive and impressive. You brought those capabilities to the table at bid time and you delivered, as you promised, throughout construction. I am so pleased, and so is our board of trustees, that you partnered with us to create what our children need." |

"From the beginning your Project Manager took the lead on all facets of the construction - not allowing any area to go unattended. He managed the flow of work from the construction documents and budget management to the paint finishes and signage. His attention to detail is unmatched.
After months of intense planning that included the demolition, to the final jaw dropping build-out of our new space - he never missed a beat. We moved in exactly on our target date, which is simple unprecedented.
Our journey from One Gateway to One Newark Center was a seamless transition and this was a direct result of the unselfish effort and energy that your Project Manager offered this project. In the months following our move, we have had a continued stream of communication from your Project Manager that has covered every aspect of our punch list. On behalf of Littler - we would like to express our heartfelt thanks for offering us the chance to work with your team on this project and highlight the fact that your Project Manager's competence and skill set far exceeded what we could have ever expected." |
