time the owner – who develops and builds hotels all over the world – utilized
modular construction.
Ruggco, Inc. acted as the construction manager of the
project. While they prepared the building site, Keiser worked on the modular
components that would make up the finished building. This method integrated
modular and traditional construction in order to reduce the cost per square
foot and the schedule of delivery. Larry Ruggles, of Ruggco, Inc., notes that
had a traditional on-site building method been used, the project would have
cost 20% – 30% more and the building would take an extra 8 months to be completed.
David Cuttler, President of Keiser Homes says of the
project: “Keiser Industries is excited to see the On The River Resort project
come to fruition. The project required tedious coordination between owners,
designers and builders across two continents. The result is a finished project,
on time and within an aggressive budget. The building season in
obvious choice.”
The project was started on March 25th of this year and is
scheduled to be occupied by September 1st.
