The Construction Source

JANUARY 2020 Through their growth, Cali- ber Projects has been highly successful at forming strong relationships with real estate companies and developers like Vesta Properties, Infinity Prop- erties, Qualico + Chow & Li and others. Jerry and Kevin credit that success to the company’s core values of Own It, Crush It, and Love It. “We’re about long-term rela- tionships,” Kevin says. “We don’t want to be just another compa- ny that’s there to make a bunch of money quickly and move on. We want to build relationships with developers who we can work with and grow with for many years. With every job we go into, it’s never about how we can maximize our fee. It’s about how we can add value and max- imize the relationship.” “We take that same approach with our sub-trades and sup- pliers as well,” he says. “We go to specific subtrades for pricing because they are aligned with us and our values. They care about quality, they care about staying on schedule, and they care about keeping their prom- ises.” A prime example is Fleetwood Glass, one of the company’s glazing installation sub-contrac- tors. Like Caliber, they believe that integrity is the basis of a strong client relationship. Cal- iber relies on companies like Fleetwood to be there when needed and complete the work Crushing It and Moving Forward “We have an excellent process where we work with the Developers in the design development, consultant coordination & building permit draw- ing development.” - Kevin Leyenhorst
