This project was completed in about half the time expected. Proficient’s ability to meet deadlines, fast responses and plan accuracy were key. The MEP work was on point. Ron knew when to challenge things and when to be flexible. I never had to think twice about whether Ron could respond or implement. They were always on time. It was seamless and easy to work with Proficient.

Proficient was one step ahead. They knew exactly what to do and made things a lot faster and easier for me. I would absolutely use Proficient again because of how smoothly things went, their ability to meet deadlines, and how flexible the team was with adapting the system’s designs and plans to the owner’s needs.
