Why SFC?

Our owner’s representatives and project managers represent your best interest throughout the design and construction process. This includes services designed to maximize the potential of the project and streamline the process for owners. We bring our unique expertise to the process of building sports, recreation, and entertainment facilities, including working with design teams, budget evaluation, securing and managing contractors, and coordinating the procurement of materials. 

Venue Design

SFC selects and leads the design team to ensure that requirements related to spaces utilized by end users (sports leagues, special programming) are met. Leveraging our facility operational experience, we utilize best practices to optimize the design layout considering several key elements, including guest experience, storage, and technology.

Project Management

We not only create the construction management plan including schedule and budget, but we execute and report. Through our extensive experience with sports, recreation, and entertainment facilities, the SFC team ensures the project takes into account current trends for material and labor costs and works closely with the construction team to ensure that the project stays on budget and is completed on time.

Team Selection

SFC leads the process of creating the best team for your project including design partners, contractors, and vendors. We serve as a single point of contact for the owners and manage the working relationships between these parties to simplify and streamline the process.

Procurement

The SFC team leads and manages the procurement process of furnishings, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) and operating supplies and equipment (OS&E) for your new facility. This process includes obtaining vendors and materials through the creation of RFP’s, evaluating all products and services, and making recommendations. Once FF&E items have been procured, we manage its installation, provide operational training, and maintenance plans.
