AES Group provides innovative designs with our senior professional engineers building lasting relationships, upon the cornerstone of quality services. Sound design and constructible projects at AES Group develop as a result of several important factors: project experience, design experience, technology, materials analysis and data gathering. All of these factors working together create quality and well-crafted products.
AES Group is thoroughly familiar with the design requirements associated with construction, renovation, maintenance, and repair for various government facilities throughout the US, including the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of the Army, the National Mine Safety & Health Academy (MSHA), and the US Air Force. The Team is knowledgeable and compliant with government design criteria including DOD, USACE and United Facilities Criteria standards and specifications.
AES Group takes pride in the quality of our work and we build time for quality control into our schedules. Quality in a project is much more than merely quality assurance/control programs carried out by the project participants. It is a state of mind of all involved in the project that places quality foremost. It requires a major communication effort during the entire process to keep all parties informed of the vital elements of work and the concerns of the owner, design professional, and constructor. It also requires mutual understanding of those concerns and determination by all parties.
