With Commercial General Construction, Freeman is hired after your design is finalized to execute the build based on fixed-price bids. With Commercial Construction Management, we act as your trusted advisor from the very beginning—collaborating during the pre-construction phase to oversee budgeting, scheduling, and subcontractor selection to maximize efficiency before ground is even broken.

Yes. Freeman Building Systems coordinates directly with LEED Certified Professionals to design and construct highly efficient, optimized facilities. Our sustainable building practices, resource management, and use of eco-friendly materials—such as high-recycled Butler steel—contribute points directly toward the USGBC LEED® certification process.

We partner with Butler® Building Systems to make sustainable commercial building highly affordable. Butler pre-engineered steel buildings are constructed using up to 74% recycled steel and are 100% recyclable. Additionally, systems like the Butler MR-24® roof feature energy-efficient cool roofs that can reduce structural energy costs by up to 40% due to superior solar reflectance.

Choosing a single-source design-build contractor like Freeman Building Systems unifies the design and construction phases under one contract. This team-based approach eliminates communication gaps between architects and builders, accelerates project timelines, reduces administrative burdens, and prevents unexpected cost overruns for commercial clients.
