		Testimonials



		“Erection of our 150-ft steel framed pedestrian bridge required a two crane operation which classified it as a “critical lift.” Douglas Steel did a fine job preparing a site specific erection procedure. We truly appreciated the well planned and executed lift.”
			Steve BusenManager, Jenkins/Skanska JVDMC Heart Hospital, Detroit, MI
	


		St. John Hospital, North Pavillion

Thank you for your cooperation, safety efforts and adherence to the schedule in completing this project.  Work space was limited, and cooperation with other trades was a “must.”  Your company overcame these obstacles and we finished with “flying colors.”  Skanska/L.S. Brinker looks forward to working with you again in the future.

		BASF – Lithium Ion Battery Plant


We needed a steel contractor that would be a driving force on this very important project. Douglas Steel gave us that by self-performing all steel detailing, fabrication and erection and closely collaborating with the design team on this complex project.
Staying ahead of our competition by being first to market with our product meant the schedule was not negotiable.  Douglas Steel stepped up to the challenge by completing the steel frame and equipment access platforms and supports ahead of our very aggressive schedule.

		Michigan Medical Center

Douglas Steel operates at a whole different level of cooperation.  They want to partner, and they are receptive.  They take care of any problems immediately.

		William Beaumont Hospital, MRI #3

Douglas Steel has been a great team player with the Design Build Team.  The engineering and shop drawing process was nearly seamless, which transitioned into a smooth erection process on site.  Thanks for all of your hard work!

		Michigan State University Power Plant

This was the first project MSU did that involved design-assist.  There is a lot going on right now in the industry with different delivery models being used to meet project goals.  Trade partners are being brought in to get inefficiencies out.  Douglas is at the edge of what’s happening. They can be higher on price.  But you get what you pay for.  If you go with the lower cost, you sacrifice.  I know I’m going to get my monies worth out of their higher price. They do what it takes to get the job done.
			Chris BarnesProject SuperintendentMSU
	


		I like to hire Douglas Steel in the planning phase, before design is complete, to make sure it is engineered efficiently.  They have strong capabilities in the planning phase.  Their expertise extends way beyond ordering the materials shown and putting them up.

		Saint Joseph Mercy Patient Tower 3b

Overall, Douglas Steel is one, if not the best, structural steel sub-contractor in the business.  I have worked with Douglas Steel on about 5-7 jobs, and they always exceed my expectations.  Safe procedures, good management and excellent field experience.
			Jeff TomczakChristman Company
	


		Duffy Daugherty Football Building, Michigan State University

Douglas Steel demonstrated excellence performance on this project.  The received high marks from the design team on preconstruction services as well.

		FTCH recently had the opportunity to work with Douglas Steel in a design assist role on the MSU Business project.  Billed to be an “iconic” architectural design from the beginning, that naturally led to multiple challenging structural design features.  Having Douglas Steel involved during the design process allowed us (as the structural design engineers for the building) to consider all facets associated with the project delivery, including material, fabrication and erection costs.  It is widely recognized in the structural engineering profession that the most economical design is often not the least weight design. Having Douglas Steel as a design assist partner allowed us to confidently achieve the most economical design all things considered every step of the way. Equally important is the fact that Douglas Steel has a small army of trained, knowledgeable and experienced structural engineers on staff that are ready to help.

		Minor League Baseball Stadium, Michigan Baseball Foundation

Outstanding performance!  Excellent team from Engineering to Project management to the Field.  Douglas Steel was a pleasure to work with!
			F. M. Eddy, Jr. Michigan Baseball Foundation
	


		I want contractors that are partners.  Douglas fits that really well.  They take the time to develop relationships.  Douglas has a single source of responsibility, from planning through erection.    Their in house design and fabrication means that when we get to erection, the job gets done right. You know what you’re going to get.  There is no fighting about costs, schedule.  You don’t have to worry about the project.  They will get the job done. The more complicated the job, the more you want Douglas Steel.

		GM – Ft. Wayne Sequencing Facilitiy

Douglas Steel was a pleasure to work with.  They picked up the pace when other team members struggled and didn’t meet their deadlines – without complaining or nickel and diming us.  The site team and management was a fantastic bunch of people to work with.  Douglas met every schedule milestone!
