At Big Dog Construction Services, our Core Values set us apart.
They are reflected in every decision for every project on every day.
Core Values
Integrity: We do the right thing, even when nobody is watching.
Professionalism: We are professional “constructors.”
Challenges Excite Us: We don’t shy away from challenges, rather we relish in finding solutions.
Communication: We keep you updated regularly and as circumstances require.
Empathy: We sincerely care about our clients, employees and subcontractors which creates strong and mutually supportive relationships.
Ownership: Setbacks are inevitable in construction and development; but we own up to our own setbacks, help others on the team to recover from theirs, and then immediately focus on making it right.
We Look Out for YOU: You deserve a contractor who looks out for you, your project, your time and your budget.
Enjoyment: Construction and development are our passions. We take great joy in turning our clients’ dreams into reality. Most importantly, we strive to create an enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
Leadership
“Clients love my ability to anticipate and deal with unanticipated and complex situations.”
“My passions for processes, technology, and training drive my pursuit of operational excellence.”
“I lead by example. In construction, a willingness to ‘roll up your sleeves’ to get the job done is critical.”
“I take pride in managing each project to ensure quality, timeliness, and ongoing communication.”
Technology
During preconstruction, it is used to manage drawings and specifications, scope details, RFIs, as well as subcontractor bids and proposals. As construction commences, it is used to track all financial matters including budget, schedule of values, subcontractor agreements, change orders, submittals, and purchases.
Throughout the project, it is used to store photos, meeting minutes, contact directory, and project correspondence. Procore is used to track comprehensive daily logs, quality assurance reviews, inspections, punch lists, and more.
Clients, subcontractors, and other stakeholders are invited to work with us in Procore. This will enable them to view relevant information, facilitate a quicker turn-around, and provide a platform for organizing project information.
Please let us know if you would like to learn more about our Procore platform and how it will help us to effectively manage your job.

Each page features a beautiful, professional full-color photograph that humorously shares lessons in business—and in life—that you can learn from “man’s best friend.” It is a fast and fun read and a great gift.
