Marsico Hall

Milestone was founded on the belief that things can be better. That planning is a commodity. That honesty is rare. We do not believe success is putting out fires. Success is the ability to smell smoke 8 months ahead of time. Your questions and answers are unique.

The Milestone Group has assisted on many projects, both large and small, providing scheduling services, sequence planning and constructability review; all of which are critical for a predictable outcome and project success. Their work and planning is thoughtfully developed and always performed in a collaborative and team oriented fashion. Their ability to respond to specific requests and adjust as changes occur while maintaining a very clear view of the overall project is excellent. They are proactive in their approach and always looking for opportunities to improve a plan as well as construction issues to consider long before they appear on the project. We look forward to continuing our successful relationship with The Milestone Group.
