It’s never just the build.

We’ve all heard the horror stories … projects stalling for years, zoning nightmares, angry neighbors, exploited laborers, and millions of dollars down the drain.

We believe you deserve cost-effective, integrity-filled, expert guidance and management for your project. 

That’s what we provide: start to finish. Hear from people that have been in your shoes.

Our mission is to invest in yours.

Assess Your Project

We start every project with our signature Readiness Assessment and prep phase. What really makes us different from the competition? If, for any reason, you don’t sign with us, you’re not backcharged for our work in this phase. That’s because we don’t think you should have to sign on the dotted line before you know what a contractor (i.e. us) will bring to the (drafting) table.

Start Your Project With Catalyst

Lean on Our Connections

We hang our hats on getting projects done on or under budget without cutting corners. Our secret? A magical money-growing tree in our offices (jk … we wish!). In reality, we use our extensive rolodex of trusted architects, engineers, developers, lawyers, city council members, subcontractors, volunteer coordinators, and others to create the most gifted, most cost-effective team your money can buy.

Execute Your Vision

Every project presents unique challenges, requirements, and people. We take it all into consideration as we plan, manage, delegate, track, record, and oversee every detail. Hitting a wall with zoning? We’re at the board meetings. Running into electrical problems? We’re making sure they’re resolved by licensed experts. Supply chain issues? We’re finding alternate materials. There’s always another problem to tackle during a build, and we’ve got our safety glasses on while we help solve ’em all.

Catalyst is non-self-performing for a reason.

You heard that right—we don’t do the construction work ourselves. Which actually saves you a whole lotta cash.

(Yep, we make decisions with your best financial interest in mind.)

Instead of being bound by union rules, we get to choose the best contractors for each aspect of your project. (We can even bring in volunteers, if your people want some sweat equity in your project.)

In addition to the best contractors, you also get the best of our team.

Our Approach

Budget Agility

We’ve been around the block, and we’ve learned some pretty creative ways to work with your budget. Set us loose on whatever budget challenge you’re facing, and we’re pretty sure we can find a way.

Vision Planners

We include master planning with every project. This means we’ll map out the long-term vision and costs for your building with you, beyond your initial build.

Problem Solvers

No one wants to run into a problem, but they’re inevitable in construction. So we’ve become experts in handling them with grace, speed, and really good comeback ideas.

Project Developers

Great builds start before the first shovel hits the ground. Our in-house team creates tailored proformas and development plans that turn under-utilized assets into real value.
