We relied heavily on Poettker’s leadership, preconstruction, and cost consulting professionals to guide us through the State funding stall, which lasted nearly one year. The Poettker Team collaborated with the school district, design partners, and local trade contractors to determine all cost-saving options to keep the high school project within budget without sacrificing the new facilities we dreamed about for years.
