Synchro Building Corporation | 17 special asphalt and coating which exceed recommended standards. Hancock says, “Af- ter twelve years, there’s not a single crack in the concrete. Doing it the right way helps save them the maintenance costs which re- sult from cheaply-paved roads ... quality pays off every time.” In terms of the future, Hancock is encour- aged by trends involving LEED certification, emphasis on sustainability and ergonom- ics. He says that the want for workplaces to be more energy efficient and conducive for employee health and productivity are val- ues which not only resonate with his phi- losophy but also correspond with Synchro’s capabilities in design-build. Hancock also says Houston has seen an influx of European companies establishing a base in the market and he is encouraged to see so many coming to Synchro for solutions. Ironically, Europe- an enterprises were embracing design-build long before it became popular in America. While Synchro’s portfolio of projects and its standards in safety and quality represent meaningful attributes to attract future cli- ents, the teamwork and streamlining of ser- vices associated with design-build continue to resonate as Synchro’s greatest strength. As Hancock affirms, “Design-Build is the best project delivery model, with the best quality and best results for the project owner.”
