Why does our experience matter ? If we don ’ t have an immediate solution to a problem , we will bring it up in our weekly roundtable meeting with over 20 highly experienced superintendents . All problems are discussed and put on the table until we have all agreed to a solution . Communication is the key to a successful project . Our superintendents ensure our field personnel have this knowledge specific to the task at hand and fully implement the design that the architect , owner and the construction team expect .
Why is our Craftsmen Specification important ? It is the result of our experience over the last 45 years with the current group of people at Shaw & Sons . We are the same people who developed and built projects such as the 2nd phase of the Getty Villas , San Bernardino Federal Courthouse , Los Angeles Federal Courthouse , Long Beach Federal Courthouse , Grand Park in Los Angeles , Tongva Park in Santa Monica , and the complete renovation of the Griffith Observatory .
