Vincent Kolis, Baker Construction

The University of Michigan, with its rich history and academic excellence, embarked on a new journey to expand its campus with the introduction of Munger Hall. At the heart of this ambitious project was Vincent, the man trusted to oversee the budget and all facets of the building development.

The University's vision was clear:

  1. To create a state-of-the-art educational facility that resonated with the University’s ethos and catered to its growing student population.

  2. Ensure that the project adhered strictly to the allocated budget while not compromising on quality and innovation.

Vincent, with his experience in budget management and infrastructural projects, devised a comprehensive plan:

  • Financial Prudence: With $10,100,000.00 at his disposal, Vincent meticulously allocated funds for each phase, ensuring optimal resource utilization without overexpenditure.

  • Stakeholder Collaboration: Recognizing the importance of collective expertise, Vincent liaised closely with architects, construction crews, and University officials to ensure the project's smooth execution.

  • Quality Control: Regular audits and checks were carried out, ensuring that the construction met the highest standards of quality and safety.

  • Timely Execution: Vincent’s hands-on approach meant that the project timelines were adhered to, ensuring the hall was ready for use as per the University's academic calendar.

Under Vincent's able stewardship, Munger Hall stands tall as a testament to architectural brilliance and functional design. Not only was the project completed within the allocated budget, but it also emerged as a hub of academic activity, adding immense value to the University's infrastructure.

“The success of Munger Hall is a reflection of Vincent's dedication, expertise, and his unparalleled ability to manage complex projects. His meticulous approach to budgeting and development ensured that we realized our vision without any financial overruns.”
