De Pere Company Completed Upgrade to Green Bay DMV Building on Budget

DE PERE, Wisconsin – IEI General Contractors, Inc. continues to build upon its reputation as a leading construction project management firm in Northeast Wisconsin with successes such as the renovation and expansion of the Green Bay Department of Motor Vehicles building. The $1.1 million project came in on time and on budget in 2015, with IEI teams completing the demolition, concrete, carpentry and masonry phases. The majority of the building was gutted and remodeled during a five-month span.

“Our company follows an established process that ensures we obtain all the information necessary to successfully complete every project,” said Mike Johnson, chairman of the board of IEI. “Our ability to meet ADA requirements, adhere to strict timelines and budgets while posting an exemplary safety record makes IEI a comfortable fit for owners and architects looking for dependable construction project management.”

DMV Project included infrastructure upgrades

The DMV project featured a comprehensive plan that called for relocating the entry vestibule and adding more office space, replacing the asphalt shingle roof and skylight, windows, interior flooring, carpet and lighting, insulation system and mechanical systems.

Crews also constructed a family restroom adjacent to the existing public restrooms and corrected any accessibility issues in those areas, replaced ceiling tiles and cabinetry, improved the building’s security and fire alarm systems, and upgraded its voice/data cabling. The DMV project provided another example of IEI’s excellence in delivering quality industrial construction in Wisconsin.

“We emphasize communication at every level in an effort to maintain cost-conscious practices and safe worksites. One of our primary goals is to minimize the need for change orders,” Johnson said. “While we always use the highest quality building materials and subcontractors within budget guidelines, we’re conscious of utilizing the most cost-effective practices to minimize expense for the owner.”
