ment. That’s our job.

of our business. Associated has been
actively involved in many different
types of projects, from schools and
universities to Nike missile bases and
airports,to tollbooths,prisons,court-
houses and publicly funded residen-
tial units.
By participating in this public bid-
ding process, Associated maintains
current knowledge of competitive
costs in the building industry. This

serves us well when pricing projects

6. Health care facilities
We have renovated several areas at Hartford’s Saint Francis Hospital and Medical
Center, including the dialysis unit and the angiography suite shown here.
The soaring atrium of Middlesex Hospital’s
outpatient clinic in Middletown.
Due to the ever-increasing cost of
health care, this industry is in a pro-
cess of reinvention. New procedures
and technology spur hospitals, im-
mediate care centers, surgi-centers
and health care complexes to reno-
vate and reconfigure existing space
and build additions or new facilities.
With our diversified background,
preconstruction services and value
engineering capabilities,Associated is
the ideal choice as a partner in these
demanding projects.
Saint Francis Hospital and Medi-
cal Center, Manchester Memorial
Hospital, Natchaug Hospital and
Middlesex Hospital have all looked to
Associated Construction to guide and
manage them through their building
programs.

7. Commercial and office space
The complexity and dollar volume
of commercial and corporate office
projects are simply too great to rely
on chance. Every day, competitive
bids come in too high,causing expen-
sive delays, revisions and lost con-
struction time.
To the contrary, Associated works
with your design team to deliver the
cost analysis and value engineering
needed to achieve maximum quality
within budget. We have saved mil-
lions of dollars and months of delays
for our commercial clients.

state-of-the-art environments to
compete for today’s shoppers, who
have many other retail options. As-

chain store corporations to optimize
construction products and systems to
create a high-quality appearance at
reasonable cost.

Residential buildings and congregate housing
The financing and construction
costs involved in large residential and
congregate housing projects are sub-
stantial. Associated works with you
from the inception of your project to
ensure that it is cost effective. We be-
gin by advising you on your construc-
tion options based on your available
funds.
Our value engineering is an essen-
tial part of the design phase. We fo-
cus on minimizing your cost while
assuring quality construction, creat-
ing tenant-attracting amenities and
meeting all applicable government
regulations and standards.
We have a strong history of meet-
ing or improving upon construction
schedules,which reduces interest pay-
ments and generates early rental or
sale income for our clients.

spectrum of safe, comfortable and
attractive living arrangements for seniors

With the explosive growth and
needs of the over-55 population,con-
struction professionals experienced
in building congregate as well as mar-
ket-rate and low-income housing are
increasingly in demand. Associated
has constructed some of the premier
active adult communities and con-
gregate housing projects in Connecti-
cut.With over four thousand units to
our credit, we feel very confident in
this segment of the construction mar-
ket, be it high- or low-rise new con-
struction or renovation.

many times over the years as a Gen-
eral Contractor or Construction

structed other houses of worship,

roots lie is in industrial contracting.
Our dependability, performance
quality and on-time schedules have
earned us steady work in this very
technical and complicated niche mar-
ket.
Today,with more than forty indus-
trial projects completed,we continue
to construct new and renovate exist-
ing manufacturing facilities, chemi-
cal treatment plants,water treatment
