The health and well-being of our world lies in the science of construction and design. Proper building design and ingenuity leads to safer environments and positively impacts the people who occupy those buildings. CWS offers architectural and engineering design services that emphasize the health and well-being of our customers. Whether it’s fire protection, facility assessments, integrated building system design, audio visual/telecommunications, electronic security systems, design-build management, cost estimation, or value engineering, we emphasize our customers’ physical assets and their people.

The entire lifecycle of a building is dependent upon reliable and well-executed construction. Whether it’s Design-Build, Design-Bid-Build, CM at risk, or secure facility construction, CWS can provide our customers with construction services bespoke to their requirements.
