Westerman Construction

Since its founding in 1992, Westerman Construction Co., Inc. has maintained an unbroken tempo of one complex project after another, and each project has surpassed the expectations of its most exacting clients. We are a small construction management firm specializing in projects that require the type of service provided by a large firm – experienced project management and principal-level involvement – yet whose construction value may not be high enough to command such attention from a larger firm. We provide sophistication, energy and insight for complex, important projects. Westerman Construction has been honored to perform work for many of New York City’s most important not-for-profit cultural institutions, as well as major corporations and private developers. To all of its prestigious clients, Westerman has brought an understanding of the unique requirements of each project, from maintaining curatorial environmental conditions to sequencing work so that an institution may remain operational during construction, to helping a client navigate the intricacies of multi-source funding. At the outset, we work closely with the design team to ensure that all aspects of the project can be achieved within the client’s budget and timeframe. We are often able, at this stage, to recommend methods and materials to help the client meet its budget and establish accurate schedules. We have longstanding relationships with subcontractors and are skilled at developing new subcontractor relationships. We have successfully managed a dozen pass-through projects. We have worked closely with the Department of Design and Construction and the Economic Development Corporation of New York City. That much of our work over the past decade has come from repeat business and referrals from past clients is a testimony to the success of our construction management model and the care that we bring to our work.
