Often during a large-scale construction project, communication, coordination, and control can be your biggest challenges. As your single point of contact, we integrate and manage all aspects of the project and ensure we implement proven solutions that minimize those challenges. With our field-experienced engineers, technicians, coordinators, supervisors, project managers, and administrators we cover all phases of construction from basebuild through equipment pre-qualification. We also have the capability and flexibility to supply single individuals or entire teams of experts.

SEMICONDUCTOR RESEARCH FACILITY
Customer Background
The University had built their new nanotechology center and needed a third party to certify their process lines after installation.
The Challenge
The major challenge was timing. The lines were already installed and the contractor had left before the testing began. Typically the AM Technical Solutions team testing the lines would interact with the contractor during installation so that corrections could be made at that time rather than after the fact.
The AM Technical Solutions Approach/Solution
Thorough and candid communication was a key element in our approach. We began with a frank discussion with the owner of the challenges and potential problems that could arise from testing the process lines after instead of during their installation. The specifications were reviewed, potential pitfalls were identified, and a game-plan was established for managing any testing issues that may arise. This was fully discussed with the customer. During the testing phase, the customer received daily progress reports.
Results
The customer was very pleased with the results. In spite of schedule delays outside of our control, AM Technical Solutions was able to complete the testing on schedule.
