Paragon Construction Services Tainter Gate Design Paragon Construction Services Tainter Gate Design

As the Project Engineer overseeing six design-build contracts for Tainter gate rehabilitation and painting, I observed three contractor teams each awarded two projects under identical scopes and conditions. Paragon stood out immediately by completing their projects first—finishing ahead of schedule and more than a full year before the other teams delivered. This accelerated performance was achieved with zero compromise on safety, compliance, or quality.

Project Engineer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

I was extremely pleased when Paragon completed our steel rehabilitation and protective coating project 6 months ahead of schedule. Their project execution plan and communication plan produced a robust schedule supported by tight controls over safety, quality, and management, allowing them to mitigate risks proactively and coordinate seamlessly with our team. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality, Management and Safety

Project Manager, Fortune 500 Heavy Civil Contractor

I have managed 3 projects that were very similar scope with three different contractors. Of the three, Paragon scores the first as a choice to work with again. Their work was stellar and reduced the QC inspection burden, as well as the COR paperwork burden normally experienced on a project. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality and Management

Contracting Officer Representative, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

Paragon assigned a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) who performed exceptionally well. It is clear and apparent in the contractor’s performance that they selected and provided strong and capable leadership, established a culture of safety, effectively managed quality of materials and workmanship and aggressively managed the project to completion. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality, Management & Safety
