Melissa High School proudly chose Crossland Construction when in need of a significant addition to the school. This project was multi-faceted, including a gym addition, a café addition, a Performing Arts Center (PAC), and a storm shelter. This 63,000 SF addition enhanced the school on many levels.
The gym addition was designed to include a full basketball court with additional basketball courts, creating a space that could also be used for volleyball. In addition, the new facility boasts telescopic bleachers, scoreboards, two locker rooms, and multiple coach offices. The café was completely renovated, with decorative wall paneling, a curtain wall, special flooring, and a coffee bar with additional kitchen equipment.
The newly enhanced PAC exemplifies craftsmanship and attention to detail, with 1,000 auditorium seats, decorative stretched fabric throughout the audience chamber, decorative wall panels, porcelain tile floors, and bathrooms complete with decorative ceramic tiles. Additionally, Crossland added a lobby complete with terrazzo flooring, a catwalk, dressing rooms, playrooms, and 70-foot tall ceilings throughout the performance space. Crossland's invaluable team brought this design to life by successfully handling all coordination between the multiple additions, protecting all the original school property, and the challenge of bad weather. Pulling from our experience and thinking strategically, the team was able to save the school money by repurposing many of the materials of the original space, helping to keep costs down.

Hands on Learning is Redefined in New, Innovative Facility
This project involved the expansion and renovation of the Frisco ISD Career & Technical Education Center to redefine hands-on learning in an innovative facility. The 59,000 SF expansion includes new veterinary technology classrooms, a floral lab, an architecture build lab, architecture/animation labs for health science, and renovation of AV sound control rooms for virtual learning. The goal is to benefit more than 7,500 students by enhancing educational programs at the center.
The CTE’s robust programming allows students to explore over 15 career pathways and earn certifications or licenses in more than two dozen specialties. New offerings include state-of-the-art facilities for artificial intelligence, e-sports, veterinary technology, architecture, animation, and floral labs. Health science students benefit from enhanced build labs, and AV sound control rooms have been updated to support virtual learning. The expansion adds 30 new classrooms and seven multi-use spaces, designed for collaborative and hands-on learning, including a one-story expansion to the south and a two-story wing on the east side of the existing building.

As part of McKinney ISD’s 2021 bond initiative, Crossland Construction was selected as Construction Manager at Risk to deliver targeted upgrades at McKinney Boyd High School, enhancing the campus’s fine arts and student support facilities. With a total project budget of approximately $3.25 million—including design fees, permitting, testing, and contingencies—the construction package was established with a guaranteed maximum price of $2.93 million, approved by the district in July 2024.
The scope of work features a 2,400-square-foot addition built within the school’s existing courtyard, providing new locker rooms and storage designed to support performing arts programming more effectively. In addition, 3,000 square feet of existing instructional space, including classrooms and a dance studio, are being comprehensively renovated. The design by Corgan Architects emphasizes modern, flexible environments with improved acoustics, lighting, and functionality, while expanded storage and support spaces improve the logistics of fine arts operations.
Construction officially began in late July 2024 and is scheduled for completion in mid-August 2025, following accessibility certification and final inspections. Once complete, the project will deliver a seamless addition that blends with the existing campus while significantly elevating Boyd High School’s fine arts infrastructure. By modernizing rehearsal and instructional areas, streamlining support spaces, and aligning with McKinney ISD’s vision, Crossland is proud to help provide students with facilities that foster academic achievement and creative excellence.
Joshua ISD Upgrades Propositions B & C
Proposition B: Cafeteria & Kitchen Renovation and Expansion ($8.9M)
The existing cafeteria and kitchen, built in 1983, are outdated and undersized, serving only 400 students per lunch period and creating congestion and safety concerns. The kitchen’s split-level design forces staff to move supplies up and down ramps, compounding safety risks. Infrastructure and equipment—including electrical, plumbing, and food service systems— are deteriorated, with many components at the end of their useful life. The project will modernize all major systems, replace failing equipment, and reconfigure the layout to increase capacity, improve safety, and enhance operational efficiency.
This project includes a 26,000 SF renovation and a 31,000 SF addition to the CTE wing, consolidating all CTE programs into a single, modern facility. The current CTE spaces, last renovated in 2003, are undersized and lack the safety, ventilation, and equipment needed to meet industry standards. Upgrades will include new commercial kitchens for Culinary Arts, an expanded Cosmetology salon, updated Health Science labs, and specialized spaces for Business, Computer Science, Construction Technology, Forensics/Criminal Justice, Engineering, Arts/A/V Communications, and Education. This consolidation will free up core academic space in the main building for future classroom growth. These improvements will resolve long-standing deficiencies and position Joshua High School to deliver safe, relevant, and future-ready educational experiences for all students.

EXPERIENCE WITH/CONCEPTS AS A CMAR
6. EXPERIENCE WITH/CONCEPTS AS A CMAR
6.1 A Team relationship or partnership is a project approach designed to allow the design and construction process to be performed within an environment of mutual trust, commitment to shared goals, and open communication amongst the Owner, Architect, and GC. The following establishes a working relationship among all of the team members based on a mutually agreeable plan of cooperation. In agreeing to work under a Team approach, work to create an atmosphere in which all parties are working in harmony toward mutual goals to avoid claims and litigation. Through close communication and establishing mutually agreeable goals at the beginning of the project, outstanding results can be achieved. The Team objective is a “win-win” attitude between all parties due to the design and construction process.
Team Advantages
Can result in a significantly higher level of quality on a project and can significantly increase the probability of timely and on-budget completion of the project and can reduce the risk of claims and litigation.
Benefits to the Owner
• Greater control of schedule and cost through close communication and regular evaluation of progress
• Higher quality through focusing on mutual goals by team members who are not sidetracked into adversarial relationships
• The potential for a totally claim free project which can be achieved through partnering, Lower administration costs can be achieved by the avoidance of case building and use of outside counsel
• Greater innovation through open communication and trust particularly in the area of value engineering and constructability reviews
• Higher profit potential for all participants resulting in a more efficient project delivery process
Benefits to the Construction Manager + General Contractor
• Reduced risk of delays and cost overruns by early and active involvement in issue resolution
• Increased productivity by the elimination of adversarial relationships and case building, Reduced exposure to claims litigation through early low level project resolution of problem issues
• Greater profit potential
Benefits to Architect/Engineering Consultants
• Greatly reduced exposure to liability for document deficiencies through early review
• Cooperative effort to resolve problems early to reduce exposure to claims and litigation resulting in reduced administrative costs and increased profit potential
Benefits to Subcontractors + Suppliers
• Improved cash flow due to elimination of, or reduction in, disputes resulting in withheld payments, greater involvement in the decision making process as an active team member in the project.
• Reduced exposure to, or elimination of, claims and litigation through early project dispute resolution. And finally, increased profit potential through a “win-win” attitude.
Project Example:
On Melissa Elementary School #5, Crossland was awarded the project and instantly went to work on budgeting the Schematic Design drawings that the design team had put together to ensure that the budget was tracking. When the 75% and 90% drawings were received, Crossland would once again send those drawings out for budgeting. We would analyze which previous budget numbers were either up or down and find out the why behind these changes. If there was drastic increases in a scopes budget, Crossland helped propose changes that would help lower the cost back to where it needed to be. Once the 100% drawings were received and priced, there was no major surprises as due diligence was done on the front end to help alleviate major budget bust. It was a smooth process and we were able to deliver a full GMP within two weeks of bidding the 100% drawings. This is the concept that we utilize on all CM at Risk projects, and have found that doing the work on the front end with the SD’s and DD’s, makes for a smoother process whenever bidding the 100% CD’s and formulating a GMP for approval. We without a doubt, would be able to deliver this same service on these projects to meet the needed schedule.
project approach
Our approach begins with a thorough understanding of the project’s scope. We appreciate the importance of minimizing disruption to ongoing school operations, maintaining strict budgetary controls, and achieving timely completion in accordance with the district’s objectives.

preconstruction phase services
Provide information as to how your fee for preconstruction phase services would be determined and provide a lumsum amount thereof.
The lump sum covers all preconstruction activities as outlined in the RFP, including but not limited to: project planning, cost estimating, value engineering, constructability reviews, scheduling, preparation of bid packages, and participation in design and coordination meetings.
The fee is calculated by evaluating the required staff hours, level of expertise, and resources needed to fulfill the preconstruction services, as well as associated overhead and profit. We provide a detailed breakdown of the preconstruction fee in our proposal, ensuring transparency and alignment with the Owner’s expectations. The proposed lump sum is included on the required Proposal Tabulation Form (Exhibit “H”) as specified in the RFP.
Lump Sum = $50,000
Construction Phase Services
For your services after the GMP, describe how your fee would be calculated and provide a percentage fee for construction phase services.
After the GMP is established, our construction phase services fee is calculated as a fixed percentage of the actual cost of the work performed by subcontractors and suppliers. This percentage covers our overhead and profit for project management and administration during construction.
This structure ensures our compensation is directly tied to the scope and value of the construction work, supporting transparency and alignment with the Owner’s objectives.
Describe your organization’s concept for the disposition of savings realized during construction. Is the full amount returned to the Owner?
Our approach to generating savings during construction is rooted in proactive planning, value engineering, and continuous collaboration with the Owner and Architect. Key strategies include:
• Early identification of cost-saving opportunities through constructability reviews and value engineering workshops during pre-construction.
• Soliciting multiple competitive bids for all major scopes to ensure the best pricing from qualified subcontractors and suppliers.
• Monitoring procurement schedules to secure long-lead items early and avoid escalation costs or delays.
• Regularly reviewing design documents for potential scope clarifications or alternate materials that maintain quality while reducing costs.
• Maintaining open-book accounting and transparent communication, allowing the Owner to make informed decisions on potential savings.
Specific examples:
• On a recent elementary school project, our team identified an alternate roofing system that met performance requirements and saved the Owner over $250,000.
• For a middle school addition, we recommended prefabricated wall panels, which reduced labor costs and shortened the construction schedule, resulting in $180,000 in savings.
• During a high school renovation, we worked with the design team to re-sequence construction activities, minimizing overtime and after-hours work, which saved the district approximately $100,000.
These actions reflect our commitment to maximizing value for the Owner while maintaining project quality and schedule.
6.8
contengencies:
During the design and construction phases, our organization establishes and manages cost contingencies to address unforeseen conditions, design development changes, and market fluctuations.
In the design phase, we typically include a contingency percentage in each estimate to account for the level of design completion and potential unknowns:
• Schematic Design Estimate: 7–10% contingency
• Design Development Estimate: 5–7% contingency
• Construction Documents Estimate: 3–5% contingency
During construction, a construction contingency is maintained, generally ranging from 2–3% of the construction cost, to cover unforeseen site conditions, minor scope changes, and coordination issues.
All contingency funds are tracked transparently and are only used with Owner approval.
After project completion, our policy is that all unused contingency funds are returned 100% to the Owner, as stipulated in the RFP requirements.
We provide full documentation and reconciliation of contingency usage at project closeout to ensure the Owner receives any remaining funds.
cost information
All cost information—including estimates, bids, subcontractor proposals, change orders, and invoices—will be compiled and maintained in a secure, cloud-based project management platform accessible to both the Owner and Architect.
• During design and construction, we will provide regular, detailed cost reports that include line-item breakdowns, supporting documentation, and real-time budget tracking. These reports will be reviewed and updated at each project milestone and upon request.
• All supporting documentation (such as subcontractor bids, supplier quotes, and backup for general conditions) will be organized and available for review at any time. We will also provide open-book access during meetings and audits.
• To ensure completeness and accuracy, our accounting team will reconcile all cost data with project budgets and contracts, and we will conduct periodic internal audits. Any discrepancies will be promptly addressed and communicated.
• The Owner and Architect will have the right to inspect, verify, and audit all cost records, as outlined in the contract, and we will respond to any requests for additional information within five business days.
This transparent, open-book approach ensures that all cost information is accurate, up-to-date, and fully accessible throughout the project.
6.9
audit/accounting:
We acknowledge and fully accept this requirement. During the project’s construction, and at the Owner’s request, we will provide detailed job cost information for the project. Upon completion and prior to final closeout, we will also provide comprehensive documentation of all job costs and ledger entries. We understand that this documentation will be reviewed and reconciled by the Owner, and we will cooperate fully to ensure transparency and accuracy throughout the process.
Ability to Prepare + Follow the Schedule
Delivering your Project On-Time
Realistic Schedules
With years of experience building schools, we know how long things should take and plan accordingly. The project superintendent and project manager will build a schedule that balances the time needed to provide quality work while ensuring students are in school on time.
Identify Long Lead Time Materials
We will identify and address materials with long lead times that could impact the project schedule and provide alternate options, as needed.
Early Bid Packages
We use our time and yours wisely. There may be some parts of the project that we can perform earlier, and some that we wait until school is out of session. We’ve found we can often get started earlier than our clients anticipate to maximize the project schedule. We also avoid delays by starting the procurement process earlier for critical path items and materials.
Finding the Best Way to Build
The last critical part of preconstruction is reviewing all construction processes from start to finish – looking for the most efficient means, methods, and materials. When we identify challenges before we build, we reduce or prevent errors, delays, and added costs.
As we do this, we pull from the information gathered in our design meetings and keep long-term maintenance for your staff in mind. We’ve used this approach for

ABOUT ROCKY
Rocky’s introduction to Crossland came from a pheasant hunting trip with Mike Crossland. The two kept in touch over the years, and when the opportunity arose to come work for us, he took it. He started as a project manager, but it didn’t take long before Mike considered him for the open division manager position upon his retirement. In less than ten years, Rocky won our prestigious Red Iron Award given out to one individual each year. This coveted award represents all of the qualities of our late founder. We are proud to say Rocky is one of our best. When Rocky isn’t hard at work, he enjoys spending time with his family and his kiddos—hunting, fishing, and golfing when he can. And, of course, cheering on the Dallas Cowboys!
