FGX Highlights: A Look Back At 2020 And How We Can Help In 2021

February 1, 2021

Here at FGX, we’ve been grateful to work on a variety of projects, from corporate office complexes to dental offices, hospitals to universities, self-storage facilities to retail spaces, and everything in-between. While we’re based here in the Philadelphia area, our projects have a national and even international reach, stretching from San Francisco, California to Orlando, Florida, and even north to Toronto, Canada.

We know running every facet of a design and construction project can be overwhelming, which is why our expertise in site selection, land development, planning, budgeting, municipal approvals, design oversight, and construction management can be so valuable. We’re there alongside you every step of the way, from the very beginning to close-out. We can help with renovation, building addition, and ground-up projects. As owner representatives and program managers, we can oversee entire projects or concentrate on specific portions, depending on your needs and requirements.

As cost estimators, we know how critical it is for clients to understand the construction costs for a project early in the design process. Having current knowledge of material and labor costs is instrumental in securing the right financing prior to construction start. We at FGX take pride in helping our design firm clients with our estimating services.

If you’re looking for help on an upcoming project in 2021, please reach out. But first, check out all that we’ve done this past year. We’re proud of our work, and hope you’ll choose to work with us in the near future.

Testimonials

Corporate Renovation for DPS Group - Conshohocken, PA

Due to the extreme pace our business has been growing, we were in need of new office space sooner than later. However, we didn’t have the bandwidth to manage the process internally. The FGX Group was able to get started immediately with assembling an overall project budget and schedule in order to set proper expectations, particularly important in today’s real estate climate. He was instrumental in design oversight, and assembling the balance of the project team including the general contractor, IT related vendors, the furniture dealer, and all other pertinent firms. We are thrilled to be in our new space and couldn’t be more grateful for having Frank to assist us with the process so we could concentrate on continuing to grow our business.

Self Storage Renovation Projects for Home Star Storage - Various Locations

As someone who works in self storage conversions, I work with The FGX Group on all my major projects. Unlike ground-up construction, conversion projects often have unexpected circumstances and last-minute surprises that don't necessarily jump out from the beginning of the project, even with careful planning. Working with The FGX Group, I know our team is ready for the unexpected in each project – whatever that may be. We appreciate working closely with them to bring more well-built storage projects to fruition on-time and on-budget up and down the eastern United States.

Renovations to Children's Dental Management - Philadelphia, PA

Frank Gallagher and The FGX Group were instrumental in assisting me to assemble the project team and formulate a plan to complete our new Orthodontics and Surgery Center suites in Philadelphia. With Frank’s help in managing the contractors, various vendors, and coordination activities with the landlord, it allowed me to concentrate on other responsibilities at CDM. Frank has a knack to bring everyone together to focus on one goal. I would work with him again.

Renovation of Medical Office for Pure Dental Brands - Upper Darby, PA

From my perspective, here is what The FGX Group did that helped us achieve a successful build out of our new office location: Their contract spelled out all of the responsibilities that they would own, and they carefully broke down all of the job functions and steps with milestones; they also made it clear what were their vs. our tasks; they outlined the project timeline and costs and lived by them; they were 100% successful as a project manager because they kept us on track and had excellent communication and follow-up skills; they owned a number of key tasks around permitting and working with the local town/city that we could not have known about or handled – and they were done successfully; and they escalated issues when appropriate and prepared us in advance of issues, so that when they came up, we could quickly resolve.

The results were excellent – the office is beautiful, and it has helped us grow our business!
