EXPERTISE
Our teams have decades of experience managing complex projects across various market sectors nationwide. So, what sets Robins & Morton apart from other contractors? We believe it’s the unique knowledge of our people, enhanced by our Building Forward® approach. With an emphasis on collaboration and the use of Lean principles throughout all phases of planning, design, and construction, our teams efficiently deliver maximum value. Building Forward ensures that our people have expertise creating and leading project teams that value trust, transparency and accountability.
PLANNING, DESIGN & PRECONSTRUCTION
Robins & Morton’s experience has shown that the most successful projects involve early collaboration among key team members during planning and design—typically the client, architect, engineer, contractor and key trade contractors. We establish shared expectations, common processes, and a clear management structure. This fosters ongoing communication throughout the life of the project. Early collaboration results in a more comprehensive plan and a more detailed, achievable budget. Additionally, Robins & Morton employs a process we call integrated preconstruction: a paradigm shift from the traditional idea that the estimating process ends when construction begins. By continuing to refine plans as a project progresses, we work to meet both design and budget goals with greater efficiency.

CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
Building on the trust established during planning, design and preconstruction, the project team transitions seamlessly into construction. Beyond the essentials such as safety, schedule management, quality control and budgeting, Robins & Morton strives to be a true partner to our clients, design teams, and trade contractors. While we benefit from best practices learned throughout our more than 75 years of operation, our jobsites are also hubs of industry innovation, with our people continually working to find better ways to perform everyday tasks. This spirit of continuous improvement ultimately leads to better communication, new ways to encourage safety, the best utilization of onsite talent and greater efficiency with both time and materials.

Robins & Morton has completed more than 1,700 successful projects in 37 states. Over the years we have grown from our initial office in Birmingham to offices in Charlotte, Dallas, Huntsville, Nashville, Miami-Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Raleigh-Durham, San Antonio and Tampa. These geographic offices help us better serve our existing clients and allow us to pursue new opportunities in these areas.

LEAN APPROACH
Robins & Morton’s culture of innovation and integrity embodied the fundamentals of Lean construction long before the term gained prominence. The guiding tenets of Building Forward®—collaboration, leadership development, continuous improvement and creating a learning culture—integrate Lean tools and processes into every facet of our business. Using the Lean approach, our project teams consistently experience measurable improvements in coordination, communication, quality, cost, and schedule. Most importantly, it fosters a heightened level of collaboration with our design teams, trade contractors and our clients.

TECHNOLOGY
Robins & Morton’s culture of continuous improvement and education is perhaps best illustrated by how we seek out emerging technologies that can benefit our clients the most. We use tools that will improve the efficiency of our project delivery, reduce errors, increase the accuracy of our estimates, and enhance visualizations. But most importantly, we use technology that makes sense and clearly adds value to our clients’ projects. From preconstruction to closeout, we utilize technology to support communication, project management, quality and safety, seamlessly transitioning between each phase.

SUSTAINABILITY
Because we care about the communities where we work, Robins & Morton is committed to protecting the environment by reducing waste and environmental impact on each of our projects. We tailor sustainable, knowledge-driven solutions for every client and project. Our 80+ LEED Accredited Professionals, LEED Green Associates, ParkSmart, and Green Globes Professionals direct the national dialogue for green implementation through leadership positions on councils in the construction and design community. Robins & Morton is a USGBC Silver Member, an Education Provider, and frequently ranks among the nation’s Top 100 Green Contractors. Even if a project isn’t pursuing a green building certification, we still look for opportunities to utilize sustainable construction practices and building materials.
