Letters of Recommendation
“Contrary to what some in the community believed was not possible, the
UNIT COMPANY and the subcontractors on the project completed the project in
seven months, and the Russian Jack students were back together in the new
school in less than eleven months time from the fire that destroyed their
original school. Throughout this project the level of cooperation with the
District’s staff, teachers and community was exceptional, high quality of
work was maintained, the schedule was achieved and the budget not exceeded.”

"They surgically do our remodels. They understand our expectations; that
we never shut anything down. Customers will not tolerate the bakery not
being there, the deli not being open. Unit Company makes sure production
areas are up and running. They get in and do a job on time and with the
least disturbance to the environment of the store."

I would like to say thanks for a job well done. It is
not too often that a group of Companies can work together on a project such
as we have and developed a team sprit. This project has not been easy and
the level of commitment from everyone is commendable. But most of all I
would like to say that the commitment towards safety has been exemplary.
From the newest apprentice to the management of each company, safety has
been number one.
Over the past few years a new safety culture has come
to life, and this group has proven that that culture is working. We as a
group have been proactive and not reactive, that’s what makes this safety
culture work, it’s the buy in from management and the employees that make
this happen. Our company’s goal is that everyone goes home safe and uses
what they learn about safety at home. Safety is just not about what you do
at work; but what you do in life.
We at ASCT would like to say thank you and are looking
forward to the next construction season. Have a safe Holiday season and see
you next year.
Sincerely
John McCoy,
HSE Manager

Re: UNIT Company
Letter of Recommendation
To All Interested Parties:
In less than a month the Volunteers of America will move their Adolescent
Residential
Center for Help (ARCH) program into a new $4.8 million facility located on
Hiland Road in
Eagle River, Alaska. An exceptional (14,000 sf) facility, built in a rural
residential
neighborhood, ARCH blends into its environment and enhances the neighborhood
it has
been a part of for over 25 years. This project is an excellent example of
fast-track
construction and a best-value selection process.
This facility provides a new home for a successful treatment program for
adolescents ages
12 – 18 with substance use disorders and mental health issues. The new
facility will house
24 residents.
As the project manager for the project, I want to commend our contractor,
Unit Company,
for creating such a fine and well constructed facility. Unit Company is made
up of a team of
dedicated professionals at all levels of their organization. They truly
deliver a quality
product in a timely manner and have treated our project as if it were their
own. All
members of their team have taken great pride in their work and reputation.
They have
exceeded expectation s with their ability to incorporate owner generated
changes with
absolutely minimal disruption to a fast schedule. The team oriented and open
approach
they have taken with this project works very well and builds an environment
that makes a
client truly feel a part of the process. They have worked very closely with
us to insure all
the special requirements this type of facility needs were addressed to OUR
satisfaction.
What an enjoyable process. I would readily work with Unit Company again.
Please call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
John F. Conway
Sr. Project Manager
