Benchmark 39 acre Retail Project

DFI  is one of the few general contractors in the United States that employs a full-time staff and owns their own equipment. DFI has an architectural/engineering division, project managers, project coordinators, in-house craftspeople, custom millwork shop, and an extensive equipment inventory - the necessary components to ensure reduced costs, fast track delivery, enhanced quality, reduced administration burden and a single point of responsibility for the entire project. The design/build services offer a time-saving element, by eliminating the bid phase between design and construction, overlapping design and construction tasks, fostering timesaving value engineering concepts. The design/build team helps the client reach their goals by identifying and addressing problems before they arise. DFI clearly states goals and keeps in constant communicatio with each client. The process allows DFI to closely monitor the project as it progresses providing total company-wide teamwork.

DFI arrives at the site with its own equipment, insuring timelines are met and budgets are controlled, despite the weather and the various obstacles that are faced during construction. The DFI team transforms this raw acreage into a buildable retail site designing and providing a turnkey site improvement package

"I enjoy getting up and going to the office or my jobsites every day. What I enjoy most is winning new work, closing out projects with a satisfied client, making the impossible-possible, and developing new expansion opportunities for the business" Adam Facciobene.

IFacciobene saw the samedisciplined approach in successful contractors and skilled tradesmen, an approach to life and the profession he found irresistible. "When I stated out I would pull 'all-nighters', like I was cramming for finals, before I submitted a bid. I saw myself as a student of the craft."...a pursuit he is relentless in following today.

DFI has been able toadapt and change in the face of the ever changing construction market.

"First, I am pretty conservative in my approach; debt is something that keeps me up at night, so I try to avoid it. Though we have a lot of money invested in equipment, we endeavor to stay debt free." That equipment and the fact that many of DFI's employees do the work that is usually done by independent subcontractors, gives DFI a significant edge. "we're able to think fast, move fast and adapt fast since we control most aspects of the construction process." In an industry where 'time is money', the edge of being able to provide most of theservices from architecture to finish carpentry 'in house' is a decisive advantage.
