COMMERCE CONSTRUCTION

Integrity, Experience, Quality, and Service.

Founded in 1968 by Majestic Realty Co., Commerce Construction Co., L.P. has designed and constructed more than 110 million square feet of commercial, industrial, warehouse and distribution, retail, institutional, hospitality, casino and recreational facilities.

Commerce’s multidisciplined team of professionals provides turnkey design-build services to meet the challenges of a constantly changing marketplace. Services include owner representation, program management, construction management services and general contracting.

The Commerce team represents years of experience in the fields of architecture, engineering, owner representation, contract administration, and construction management. Commerce provides services for outside clients as well as for Majestic Realty Co. developments. Consistently delivering projects on time and within budget leads to a high repeat factor with our clientele.

Commerce Construction Co., L.P.’s mission is to construct our projects driven by the pillars of Integrity, Experience, Quality, and Service.

  • We will conduct ourselves with the highest degree of Integrity in order to develop and maintain a relationship of “trust” with each of our Clients.
  • We will capitalize on our Experience in order to construct our projects within our Clients’ budget and on or ahead of schedule.
  • We will make decisions based on the best interest of our Clients (both in the office and on the jobsite) so that our work product is recognized in the industry as being of high “Quality”.
  • We will be driven by a work ethic exemplified by “Service” to our Clients resulting in projects that are characterized by a high level of professionalism and efficiency.

As our conduct is based on these four pillars, our mission will be to protect our relationships with our Clients as being their “Preferred Builder”.

DESIGN-BUILD

An Advantageous Solution

With selecting the Design-Build delivery method, the responsibility for the project design and construction, including cost control, quality control and scheduling, is borne by a single company. The principal cost and schedule advantages include the following:

  • “Value engineering” from the inception of the project, optimizing value, getting the “Best bang for your buck”
  • “Fast track” overlapping of the design, permitting and construction activities to reduce the total time to occupancy.
  • Early guarantee of price.
  • Possibility of early financing commitments.
  • Early identification, specification, and order of long lead time, critical path items.
  • A “Team Approach” that eliminates competing goals and conflicts – eliminates designing without consideration of budget – “Everyone is on the same page”
  • Reduces administrative burden for the Owner.
  • Removes Owner from role of referee between Architect and Contractor.
  • Transfers risk from the Owner to the Design-Builder.

Commerce’s forte is both as a Design/Builder as well as a traditional General Contractor. Commerce has the ability to deliver turn-key projects from the initial conception of a project through completion and offers Owner Representative, Project Management and Construction Management services.

Commerce’s experience dates back to the founding of the Company in 1968.
The Commerce Team represents years of experience in each of their respective fields – architecture, engineering, construction management, and contract administration. More importantly, all of this experience is enhanced by the synergistic team concept.

With a team that is sensitive to the creative balance of development, construction, and the environment, Commerce Construction builds tomorrow’s future into our projects. Commerce Construction stands apart from its competition with its “high quality” standards and state-of-the-art approach to building systems, giving our clients the competitive advantage in their facilities.

Clients benefit from the hands-on approach of Commerce Construction management. From the initial meetings to the final walk-through, senior management plays a key role in the everyday process, keenly monitoring the project progress, ready to respond with immediate decisions to meet project deadlines. Focusing on timeliness, cost and improving the final product, the Commerce team coordinates approvals with government agencies while constantly reinforcing the client’s goals and objectives throughout the project.

Accurate planning and comprehensive scheduling by the Commerce Construction team gives our clients meaningful milestone dates which enhance the client’s ability to conduct their business. Commerce Construction has afforded its clients the security of sound financial strength for more than three decades with the same ownership and dedicated leadership.

All the while, safety is not a discussion for a Commerce project – it is a given. Their superior safety record has earned Commerce an insurance modification rating that is one of the lowest in the construction industry.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, & GOVERNANCE


 

Sustainable Development

Focused on building the best commercial real estate properties and parks in the United States, Majestic Realty is equally committed to implementing and growing sustainable and environmentally responsible building and designs. A member of the U.S. Green Building Council, Majestic has been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency with an Environmental Justice Achievement Award.

In addition, we are immersed in industry and public policy at various levels of local, state and federal government, including the appointment of a Majestic executive to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Freight Advisory Committee which advises the Secretary of Transportation regarding America’s strategic freight plan.

“There are countless challenges to our freight and transportation industry,” said Majestic President and Chairman of the Board, Edward P. Roski, Jr. “We’re incredibly honored and proud to have a seat at the table as we all work toward finding the best long-term solutions to these critical components of our economy.”

Community Engagement

Equally important to the development of our quality projects and communities, is our ability to establish and maintain active engagement in these local markets. That means taking an active role in working with our strategic partners and local organizations to provide both financial contributions and active participation by members of our Majestic family. Over the past several decades, Majestic’s leadership team and our entire staff have continuously committed both their time and resources to countless local charitable and civic organizations.

Our philanthropic and community outreach efforts ultimately led to the formation of two unique foundations – Majestic Realty Foundation and the Land of the Free Foundation – that have raised and distributed tens of millions of dollars to a diverse range of people and organizations.

Launched in 2002, the Majestic Realty Foundation is active in markets where our company develops and owns real estate and participates with local not-for-profits focused on making a difference in a wide range of local issues and needs. Together, we are working to enhance the quality of life in these communities and dedicating the industry expertise and resources needed to help build and strengthen local economies with a commitment to equity and inclusion in all we do.

Land of the Free Foundation

After many years of individual giving and fundraising, Edward P. Roski, Jr., a recipient of a Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts, and his Majestic Realty Co. and military service colleagues, Kent Valley and John Semcken, founded and launched the Land of the Free Foundation in 2007.

Distributing more than $1 million annually, the Foundation has touched the lives of thousands of veterans and their family members. For more information visit: LOTF Foundation.

What’s Next:

While incredibly proud of the work we’ve done, the leadership we’ve shared and the results we’ve achieved with our diverse team of professionals, as well as our tenants, business and community partners, we also recognize that there is clearly more work to be done across all of these important issues and we look forward to being a part of that effort in the years and decades to come.
