Testimonials
“Skender’s management of this project was entirely professional from start to finish, with minimal impact on our operations (So minimal, in fact, that we were able to exceed our sales plans during the construction period – a feat that cannot be achieved without exceptional coordination with the construction crews). And the quality of workmanship is quite excellent.”
Steven Baskin, Co-President, Mark Shale
“Our project required a high level of coordination in order to ensure that all materials were in place to meet our completion date. Skender provided us with the leadership that we needed in order to complete this project on time and within budget.”
Terri Hamill, Real Estate Coordinator, Hewitt Associates
“Your team’s ability to solve complex challenges with innovative and creative solutions is most impressive. Our project was unique, and the 22-week start-to-completion schedule allowed no time for delays. Nothing – not even when the helicopter that was required to lift 20 tons of MEP equipment to the 14th floor suddenly cancelled in order to tend to wild fires in the south – slowed you down.”
Terry Prisk, NAVTEQ
"The experience with Skender was not only better than I had envisioned, but as positive as it could have been. Your team did everything that you said you would do, and then some, in terms of customer relations, efficiency, and timeliness of the work, and generally taking us through what could have been a very difficult process with as little stress or distraction as possible."
Howard A. Nagelberg, Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP

Joanne M. O’Connor, Chapman and Cutler LLP
“Thank you for all the cooperation and Skender’s diligence in the completion of the Maverick Trading construction project at 175 W. Jackson. We have received just a week after move in the warranty books, As Built drawings and the certificate of occupancy which I would normally have to chase the general contractor for months after the project is completed to get these items. I hope we get the chance to work together again.”
Bruce Hill, Extell Development Company
“Due to the ‘no down time’ effect of the trading floor and necessity to secure their servers, the immense coordination was handled perfectly by Skender. IA is looking forward to working with their team again in the future.”
Denise Makar and Thomas E. Powers, IA Interiors Architects
“I am a very hands-on project manager and this is the first project I felt comfortable not visiting on a regular basis. I have received nothing but compliments from the landlord about how well-run our project has gone. The landlord representative attends our weekly construction meeting and is all smiles. I think he is amazed with how smoothly our project has run. This has been, without a doubt, the most stress-free project I have experienced to date.”
