Prefabrication
Prefabrication of a wide variety of components for industrial projects is a big part of our self-perform construction services.
Historically, prefabrication was typically the outsourcing of production and assembly of components or materials by subcontractors or original equipment manufacturers, who would fabricate specified components and often preassemble them in modules or skids. These groupings would then be secured off-site until needed at the project location.
Today, more owners and general contractors are opting to move back to the tried-and-true method of having fabricated components for large-scale projects preassembled in climate-controlled shop environments.
