Testimonials and References

“I was left impressed by the personal integrity and reliable word of (Atul Raj). The bottom line for me is this: If I was involved in selecting a contractor for your project… as long as Atul Raj is the leader of that construction organization, I would not hesitate to employ them for my project.”

TOM GALLIER, RETIRED GENERAL MANGER OF BRUSHY CREEK REGIONAL UTILITY AUTHORITY

” The RAVA team came with a great deal of experience and expertise building educational facilities of all class and size. As builders and as individuals, they gave us the confidence that we had a contractor with not only the drive and the detail down, but the ability to work interdependently with HISD and ERO Architects as a team to innovate solutions for any sort of project concern that may arise. We would recommend them not only for their extensive skill– but for their care, their candor, and their professionalism.”

ANDREAS PEEPLES, CCM, CPC EXECUTIVE OFFICER-CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, HISD

“As a company, (RAVA) exhibits the desire to build well, and to also build long lasting relationships.”

Paul Vranesic, PE, HWT PROJECT DIRECTOR

” The RAVA team members could always be relied upon to work with owners, architects, and our PMG, LLC management group to not merely identify problems, but to come with solutions. From day one, the RAVA team members became active team members, respectful of other team members’ functions, specialties, and ultimate accountabilities. They were transparent, collaborative, and fully engaged with HISD and the Architects’ team to thoroughly examine the cost, schedule, construction, commissioning, and life cycle implications of design decisions. I highly recommend the RAVA team– their experience in K-12 Educational projects and their professionalism in the field are essential assets to any large construction project.

ROSEMARY GRANT, SR. PROJECT MANAGER, PROJECT MANAGEMENT GROUP, LLC

“The project was partially complete when Mr. Raj was asked to provide guidance and support to a sister company. At the time, there were many challenges on the project including a deteriorated relationship between DWU and the contractor. Through his involvement, Mr. Raj was able to help the contractor overcome those technical challenges and foster better cooperation with DWU.”
