meets the Client’s quality and budget expectations. We con- tinually strive to provide value every step of the way.” Caliber Projects grew to its current size and scope – and acquired their current capabil- ities – through intentional ef- fort and seized opportunities. The journey began in 2008 with founder Justin Bontkes fresh off graduating with a construction management degree and eager to make a name for himself in the highly competitive Fraser Valley. He started by purchas- ing three lots in Surrey, building and selling homes on them, and then moved into luxury cus- tom-built homes, single family, and multi-family developments. The company continued to grow into multi-family and mixed-use construction and project man- agement, tailoring their skills to meet the needs of multi-family residential Developers in the Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley area. In 2018 the senior management team attended a Scaling Up conference – which was the catalyst for intentional growth – and began dedicating themselves to growing a great unique company. With the as- sistance of a business coach, Caliber started a journey of es- tablishing a strategic plan, the foundation of which is Caliber’s 3 core values: Own It, Crush It, Love It. “We started actively trying to expand our recognition in the Fraser Valley,” Kevin recalls. “At the time, we had a relatively un-diversified client base. We wanted to maintain and honour our existing relationships, while also realizing that we needed to create new relationships in our sandbox.” JANUARY 2020
