Projects

Siloam Springs, AR

Jiffy Trip

ECS takes pride in the successful completion of projects in collaboration with partners such as Jiffy Trip and HFA-AE. Our second endeavor in Siloam Springs, AR marks another milestone in our portfolio. Leveraging insights gained from prior initiatives, ECS and HFA-AE engaged in a collaborative effort to optimize processes and refine construction documents, ensuring a robust framework for our subcontractors. Our responsibilities encompassed traditional construction scopes, including site development and the construction of a new convenience store and gas station. Furthermore, we assumed a pivotal role in overseeing the coordination of underground petroleum tank installation, the erection of a specialized fueling canopy, and the management of owner-contracted installers and suppliers.As we progress to our third site in Rogers, AR, currently in the construction phase, we eagerly anticipate the outcome and the opportunity to continue enhancing our processes and final deliverables through close collaboration with HFA-AE and Jiffy Trip. This ongoing partnership reflects our commitment to continual improvement and excellence in project execution.

Greenville, TX

Los Caballos

First Step Homes has developed a community of manufactured housing as an entryway for people into home ownership. The 80-acre campus includes an upscale clubhouse with open timber roof trusses and other design components. ECS did construction for the buildings, pool, and all other amenities, as well as infrastructure needs such as roads, curbs and gutters, and utilities. Faced with material shortages and inflation, this project required creative engineering options and the team was able to find significant savings with strategic adjustments to the structural timber package and landscaping.

Frisco, TX

Natuzzi

The Stonebriar Natuzzi Mall project is a 5,000 sq. ft. ground up retail store. Enformed Construction completed the entire site work package and constructed the buildings shell including the exterior finishes. ECS worked with the owner and other retail stores surrounding this location to complete the project on time and without any disturbance to the heavy commercial business in this area. We completed this project without any safety incidents. The scope of work for this project included earthwork, site utilities, concrete, striping, drilled piers, landscape, irrigation, electrical, plumbing, fire sprinkler, f ire alarm, mechanical, custom awnings, drywall, framing, painting, EIFS, storefront, doors, metal siding, structural steel fabrication and erection, masonry, waterproofing, and roofing

San Antonio, TX

Forever 21 Redevelopment

Originally a Mervyn’s Department store, the 80,000 square foot multi-use retail building needed to be reconfigured and reinforced. ECS added a passenger elevator, freight elevator, a pair of escalators, and a monumental stair. We reconverted a Forever 21 store on level one, added a lobby and corridor on level two, and added an annex. On the second level, we’re adding approx. 40,000 square feet of carbon fiber reinforced plastic to increase the support load from 50 pounds per square foot to 100 pounds per square foot, to support the addition of entertainment components such as a bowling alley, arcade games, etc. What made this project an interesting challenge was completing the complex work while existing retail tenants were open for business.  

Franklin, MA

Franklin Office Renovation

HFA is an architecture and engineering company with offices in Bentonville, Franklin, Fort-Worth, and Mexico City. ECS was selected to work on the office remodel in Franklin, MA. With the COVID-19 pandemic halting work around the country, the project was reimagined into two phases. The first phase includes a space for twenty four workstations, 3 private offices, a new kitchen and break room with seating for twelve, 4 conference rooms to accommodate meetings for 2, 4, 6 and 10+ people respectively. Phase one also includes a design resource center with natural daylight and an engineering resource library. Stay tuned for updates on this project! In the meantime enjoy these renderings of the future space.

It takes a team of individuals, each playing their role, collaborating to create the environment you seek.
 
Whether it is a small shopping center or a multi-story complex of buildings, ECS gathers the necessary members to bring your vision to life.  We focus on your needs, whether that be project management services, construction management services, or full turn-key services, ECS has the ability to offer the project services you need and deserve."
