A SKILLED ADVOCATE FOR YOUR PROJECT.
Project Understanding and Key Challenges
1.
Continuity of Courthouse Operations
Challenge: Court proceedings, public access, and staff functions must continue uninterrupted throughout construction.
Our Response: We coordinate closely with court administration and user groups to phase work around court schedules, isolate active work zones, and implement sound, dust, and vibration control measures during sensitive hours.
2.
Secure Circulation & Access Control
Challenge: Maintaining separation between public, staff, and in-custody traffic is critical for safety and legal compliance.
Our Response: We work with the County and design team to phase and sequence work in a way that protects all secure corridors and ensures no cross-contamination between public and restricted circulation paths.
3.
Structural Tie-Ins & Building Connections
Challenge: Connecting new construction to an existing, operational structure especially one with complex foundations, envelope systems, and utilities carries significant risk.
Our Response: We conduct detailed field investigations, use 3D laser scanning where needed, and schedule tie-in work during off-hours or courthouse recess periods to minimize impact.
4.
MEP System Integration
Challenge: Integrating new systems with existing HVAC, electrical, life safety, and security infrastructure requires precision and minimal downtime.
Our Response: We work closely with the design team and County Facilities Maintenance and IT/ Security teams to plan MEP cutovers well in advance, using temporary systems or after-hours work where needed to ensure continuity.
5.
Public Perception & Safety
Challenge: The courthouse is a civic symbol, therefore, public expectations around cleanliness, noise, and access are high.
Our Response: We maintain a clean, professional jobsite, set up high-quality temporary barriers, and keep stakeholders informed with visual progress updates and proactive communication.

Courthouse Lessons Learned - Key Cost Drivers
Foundation / Structure
Complex soil conditions, significant grade changes, and structural tie-ins to the existing courthouse require robust foundation systems and carefully engineered structural connections. These elements drive cost due to specialized labor, sequencing requirements, and increased material quantities.
MEP Systems
Court facilities demand highly reliable, redundant, and secure mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. Costs are driven by the need for robust HVAC for occupant comfort, electrical capacity for technology-heavy spaces, and plumbing for public, staff, and secure areas - all integrated with the existing building systems.
Security / Access Controls
As a functioning courthouse, strict security is non-negotiable. Costs are driven by electronic access control systems, secure holding areas, sally ports, surveillance cameras, and integration with existing county security protocols. These systems require specialized subcontractors and high-quality, vetted equipment.
Millwork
Courtrooms feature significant custom millwork including judge’s benches, jury boxes, witness stands, and clerk stations - often with ballistic protection and premium finishes. These items are labor-intensive, require precision fabrication, and must meet durability and aesthetic standards, which makes them a major cost driver.
Audio / Visual
Modern courtrooms are technology-rich, requiring integrated A/V systems for evidence presentation, video conferencing, recording, and public display. Costs are driven by both the equipment itself and the infrastructure needed to support it such as conduit, cabling, power, and coordination with other trades.

What It Means For You:
• Exceptional Safety Record
Our EMR of 0.34 is well below the industry average of 1.0, demonstrating a longstanding track record of safe jobsite practices and injury prevention.
•
Lower Risk to Your District
A low EMR reflects fewer incidents, claims, and disruptions - meaning your project is less likely to face delays, liability concerns, or unexpected issues related to jobsite safety.
•
Reduced Costs Through Lower Insurance Premiums
Safer contractors carry lower workers’ compensation insurance costs, which can lead to savings within general conditions and reduce the Owner’s exposure to riskbased costs.
•
A Culture of Accountability and Care
Our field teams are trained, empowered, and held to high safety standards. Safety is not just a checklist - it’s built into our planning, sequencing, and daily jobsite management.
At Crossland Construction, safety is our top priority. Our current EMR is 0.34, consistently below industry averages, reflecting our proactive safety culture. Through rigorous training, site-specific safety plans, and strict compliance with OSHA standards, we ensure a safe work environment.
SAFETY MANAGEMENT PLAN
SAFETY IS OUR #1 PRIORITY
Crossland’s safety plan focuses on Education, Engineering, and Enforcement. Employees receive site-specific orientations, daily planning, and weekly meetings. Our site-specific safety and logistics plan ensures minimal disruption and maximum protection for students, staff, and visitors. We will implement full perimeter fencing, designate clear laydown and work zones, and maintain separate construction access routes with directional signage to eliminate pedestrian conflicts. All personnel will be badged and trained, with security protocols in place to restrict access to authorized workers only. This controlled, low-impact approach allows us to deliver the project efficiently - without compromising safety or campus operations.
01 / DOWN Program
Crossland’s DOWN Program goes beyond safety standards to address dust, odor, water, and noise, ensuring a safer, more efficient project. This approach builds client trust and accelerates start.
03 / Inspections + Compliance
Outline procedures for regular safety inspections, including frequency and responsible personnel, to ensure that safety measures are being properly implemented and followed.
02 / Barrier + Active Areas
Detail the layout and types of barriers used to separate construction zones from active areas. Include how barriers will be monitored, maintained, and access controlled to prevent unauthorized entry.
04 / Coordination with Community
Plan construction around school events, avoiding peak times, providing advance notice, and adjusting schedules to minimize impact on daily school operations, community events, and traffic.
ASSESSMENT
Connect with the Owner early, plan logistics for community traffic, and maintain open communication. Address key issues like smoking and jobsite cleanliness during onboarding.
BUILD A PLAN
Set up and monitor barriers, communicate construction zones, avoid deliveries during peak traffic times, schedule high-risk work accordingly, and maintain a clean jobsite.
COMMUNICATE
Communicate openly, update on safety and changes, speak with the community, provide monthly progress updates, and attend community meetings if needed.
