AWC BU I LDERS On the AWC Builders side, the company’s projects can range greatly in value, from tenant improvement jobs valued under $1 million to new builds valued all the way to $25 million. For Danzante Living – which is “extremely busy these days,” Daniel says – their new homes tend to range in value from $400,000 to $2 million. In both the commercial and residential sectors, Daniel believes that AWC is set apart by their depth of in-house capability. “In our market, very few companies are built and structured the way we are,” he explains. “First of all, we do inhouse drafting. Secondly, an architect is our construction manager. Third, that architect has an interior design degree. That’s all very rare.” “Most companies farm those services out,” he adds. “They have third parties that take care of it for them. We have it all in-house. We can take our clients through the whole entire process. We can introduce them to one person, and they can walk the client through their project right to the end.” AWC is also set apart, Daniel says, by their in-house service department. “We’re not a company that subcontracts everything out. We do a lot of in-house work. A lot of companies our size subcontract almost 90 per cent of their work out. We do not. We’re probably closer to 50 per cent.” AWC also owns and operates their own design centre. Again, Daniel says, that’s very rare among companies of their size. “We buy everything through there,” he says. “So we truly provide a one-stop-shop. Once a client comes through our door, we can walk them through the entire process from start to finish. A lot of companies say that, but at AWC it’s really the truth.” According to Daniel, being so hands-on and providing such an in-depth service has paid
