We went to Merit when the second project became available without using a selection process based on our experience on the first project. Merit was integrally involved with the project from the beginning. They helped value engineer several aspects of the project and they were willing to assist us at whatever level we required to design and efficiently construct the most recent project. When we undertake our next project, we will use Merit.”
