"[The buildings] exceed all of our original expectations.
The feedback we have received has been nothing but overwhelming praise from customers,
vendors and employees. Our customers tell us there's not another commercial heavy-duty
truck dealership like ours anywhere in the U.S.
"There were many
variables under consideration in our decision as to which General Contractor we
would end up doing business with. While the total project cost was important,
cost alone did not drive us to do business with Bob Moore Construction. It was
also about our comfort level with the professionalism, knowledge and experience
of the entire team at Bob Moore Construction plus the time frame in which they
committed to complete the project. Our architect, Phil Fitzgerald, who has designed
and built truck dealerships, bowling allies, and office complexes all over the
U.S., said that he has never seen a General Contractor as structured and organized
as Bob Moore Construction. I was most impressed with Curt Hellen's and Steve Barrons'
ability to make quick and accurate decisions on the spot with limited notice.
If we were to ever build another facility, there's no question Bob Moore Construction
would be a general contractor of choice."

"The
tenants' feedback has been phenomenal. The finishes and grade of product are far
superior to what they were used to, and it has the kitchen, dining and workout
facilities as well. They didn't have those things before so they were very excited
with it. The building turned out well beyond our expectations and it was on time
and on budget. Bob Moore has a great staff with Ed McGuire (Vice President of
Construction), Stacy Langston (Superintendent) and Matt Bauer (Project Manager).
Greg Holland (Construction Coordinator) came in and did a fantastic job to finish
it up. I don't think we've had a project go better from start to finish.
"I've worked with Ed McGuire for ten to 12 years. We're practically joined at the hip - we can talk to each other frankly if we need to. Because we've worked together for a long time, we understand how each other works and operates. What we've established with Bob Moore Construction is our ability to deal with complications that arise on a job site. We've always enjoyed a strong relationship and we'll enjoy that relationship for years to come."
Steve Huff
Senior
Vice President
CMC / Commercial Realty Group
"We're
very proud of the CIGNA building. The job Bob Moore Construction did was amazing,
as always. We feel that it's a good building to showcase in our portfolio. Ed
McGuire (Vice President of Construction) was very hands-on in directing the project.
We feel very fortunate to have Ed in this. To have someone at his level at every
project meeting, that says a lot about Bob Moore Construction's attention to us
as a customer."

"We're very happy with the work Bob Moore Construction did. The superintendents and everyone involved were very professional and the quality of workmanship is just outstanding. It was a big deal for us that Bob Moore Construction could get the theater done ahead of schedule, in time for the movie's release. We originally planned to open July 10 but the City of Mansfield wanted us to open by July 4. Then with the release of War of the Worlds, we wanted to move it up to June 29. It meant a lot to us and to the city and everyone else that we could do that."

"We chose Bob Moore Construction because they have a reputation for building quality buildings, on time. Bob Moore Construction met our high expectations. You couldn't ask for better project management on a project. Steve Barrons and David Splawn did a great job. The building was finished seven days early, and there have been very few matters to address after we moved in; that has been a big deal for us."
David Frase

"Bob
Moore Construction approaches every project as a team member, and is a valuable
contributor in reaching positive solutions to issues as they arise during the
course of a project. These attributes, as well as their ability to contribute
in the early design stages of a project or build-to-suit facility, have been instrumental
in the long-standing relationship between Bob Moore Construction and Mercantile.
I have personally worked with the Bob Moore Construction Team for 15 years and
find them to be professional and knowledgeable in the construction / development
needs of a project. They understand the high standards of quality that Mercantile
requires in its buildings."

"Bob Moore Construction is an impressive company, Anyone who has dealt with the construction of such a facility knows how tough a job it can be. They made it look easy and, of course, it's not. They ran a tight ship, holding their own crews and subcontractors to a high standard. Their professionalism goes much more than skin deep; it's part of their culture.

"We
have received so many comments about the building, our customers saying how fabulous
it is. There were many aspects of the building that were important to us. We wanted
to stick with the Texas theme for the décor. We wanted to make sure we
had maintenance free flooring that would last. I want this building to look as
good ten years from now as it does now. It was important to make sure the layout
flowed well and we used the space efficiently. One of our main priorities is service
and the new service area is tremendous. I'm ecstatic with it and the employees
think it's a dream come true.
"We couldn't be happier with Bob Moore Construction. Curt Hellen is very detail-oriented and he has the respect of his subcontractors. Ed McGuire (Vice President of Construction) and Greg Dalhaug both did a great job as well. We had to move in on time and they made it happen. This building was a dream of mine and I'm very proud of how it turned out. The ultimate compliment I can give is that in two years when we get ready to build another new dealership, I already know that Bob Moore Construction will be doing it for us."

"Bob Moore has once again met our expectations with the completion of Phase 1 of our newest office/warehouse planned development. After achieving 100% occupancy in our existing industrial buildings the push began to complete additional speculative space. Bob Moore was selected to build our newest buildings because of its ability to assist with the design effort by maintaining the budget and adhering to an aggressive schedule. MDC 11, 12 and 13 were constructed with the quality expected of Bob Moore and delivered as promised. Mercantile Partners are extremely pleased with the new product and look forward to our future successes."
"Bob Moore Construction continues to be an integral partner in our business park. Our relationship has grown over years due to their outstanding staff and attention to details. The onsite superintendents and project managers assigned to our projects are always cognizant of the schedule, budget and quality of our facilities. Mercantile Partners rarely has any ongoing maintenance issues because of Bob Moore's attention to the overall functionality of each detail of the building. This attitude is what separates Bob Moore from other contractors and has made them a partner is our development and not just a service provider."

"Everybody
is amazed by the building. Our customers and suppliers have been very impressed
with the quality. This is especially impressive considering that the project was
done so closely to our existing facility. Our global operations are run through
this building and it was essential that our employees were not impacted by construction
noise, dust or interruption to our power systems. Bob Moore Construction made
this a real priority, and was extremely sensitive to not interrupting our work.
They worked a lot of nights and weekends, working around our schedule so we didn't
have to work around theirs.
"Bob Moore Construction was very easy to work with and I was very impressed with how safety was maintained on the jobsite. Curt did a great job managing the project - from keeping the project on track and maintaining the pace, to coordinating the weekly meetings and all the details. We chose Bob Moore Construction as our general contractor because we felt they could do the project right and complete it in the shortest time possible. We made the right choice."

"The
new facilities will serve a huge role for the domestic and international air cargo
shipping business at the airport. They fill the last available spot on the west
side of the airport, which is an excellent location with good access to adjacent
freeways. They're state of the art facilities and are the first in the country
to support the Airbus A380 aircraft, so they're very well positioned for the future
in many respects.
"I loved working with Kyle. He was a huge support and played a key role in developing our budgets. Throughout the project, Kyle was always very accessible. I could almost always get him on the phone, and he was always responsive to my calls about budgeting and scheduling, which developers love. That's key for a developer for determining whether a project has any legs or not."
