Construction Corner​ – Brent Erekson

Our construction process starts with the knowledge we have, from field personnel, to office staff, and all the way to the top management.  Our team is confident in the processes and procedures we have put in place over the 36 plus years we have been doing this.

Our bidding software, and our pricing templates give us the ability to provide our customers consistent proposals, that detail exactly how that number is arrived at.  It also helps in maintaining work flow, and creating workable schedules.  You must first create profit on paper, to be able to make it in the field.  These proposals and budgets allow us to keep a close eye on ongoing costs, as well as warn us of any potential change orders.    

Building a convenience store with fuel starts at conception, then goes through design, revisions, bidding, permitting, and construction.  This requires relationships be established with owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and municipalities.  These long term relationships have allowed Cochise to place itself with the elite contractors in our area of expertise. 

One of our biggest advantages is we self-perform our electrical, and our concrete. This eliminates our dependency on sub-contractors. 

Our construction success can be attributed to the great team that we have assembled over the years like Bob DeGroff (operations), Cliff Cogswell (sales), Dave DeGroff (project management), Dave Norval (electrical),  Eli Alvarez (concrete), Steve Kaler (field operations and scheduling), and Jamie Kruger (construction manager).  And of course, our team in the field that makes it all happen!
