Quality Commitment

Quality is our utmost concern, beginning at the submittals and shop drawings phase, extending to the procurement phase and continuing all the way through the balance of your project. All supporting documentation requested – including the product literature, samples, mockups and shop drawings – is submitted for your review.

Manufactured items are reviewed from catalog cut-sheets through technical specifications. Commodities, both organic and inorganic – including soil amendments, mulches, topsoil, gravel, sand, peat and geotextile fiber fabrics – are reviewed from lab test results, sieve analyses and other related testing. Once this is accomplished, all of these items are again inspected onsite to determine if the tested samples are in agreement with your project specifications and our own standards of performance.

Project Management

Our experience suggests that each sports field has unique concerns that directly impact the success of the project. Your Project Manager guarantees that any of these quality considerations are accommodated on the project. These considerations can include a variety of specific solutions.

All work begins with the assembly of budgets and cost estimates. The application of technology thus begins within our Preconstruction Services Department. Project managers use critical path scheduling software as well as project documentation and cost tracking software. In addition, each FIELDS satellite jobsite is computerized and linked to our corporate office network through the Internet. The resulting level of interconnectivity allows staff to share real-time data, review project status, and communicate via e-mail both internally and with customers as needed.
