“The GCCCD team worked tirelessly to have the Performance and Visual Arts Center ready for a performance while the new building was still under construction. Working in a partnered approach with the contractor, College, the design team, Gafcon led the effort to make the building ready, even without achieving substantial completion.”

Joan Ahrens, Ed.D.
Senior Dean, College Planning & Institutional Effectiveness
Grossmont College

“Serious professionals provide service at a high level of efficiency and standard of care. But Gafcon goes far beyond. Not only is their level of preparation and execution unmatched in the profession, but their planning and foresight is nearly unbelievable, leading to an exceptional track record in getting the job done on a timely basis, while keeping the client and CBOC fully informed of all material facts.”
