General Motors Corporate Safety Manager was so impressed with my Pre-Task Plans that he asked if he could use them as their corporation standard example model. Sleep Inn and Suites was completed 6 weeks prior to the contracted schedule date and was $320,000 under budget. The owner was so pleased with the project and its buyout that they gave Calamar an extra $120,000 above the signed contract cost as a bonus. Fairway Pointe Sr Village was completed on schedule and was $260,000 under budget. The Chautauqua Institute was so impressed with the Senior Apartment building that was constructed that they contacted Calamar and asked if we would work with them to construct a Senior Apartment complex on the institute grounds and be co-owner of the building and manage it for them. Sleep Inn, Monroe: I found a problem with the floor and roof truss dimensions after the Engineer’s approval and I had them revised prior to manufacturing which had tremendous savings. Towneplace Suites: New Hartford: I realized that the architectural plans were in error for the demising/plumbing walls and had the guestroom kitchenette redesigned so the cabinets would fit. This was done before all of the cabinets and counter tops were ordered. Auburn Grove Sr Apartment: The site had unsuitable soil conditions on a 30,000 yard cut and fill. Rather than import all the soil I had the site contractor aerate the soil so we could use it. What could have cost
$500,000 was completed for $45,000.
