“Anyone can spend $100 million on a sports arena,” says Fargo-based ICON Architectural Group co-founder and executive director Mike Kuntz. “Trying to do it for just $25 million is another story, but that was our challenge for the main arena of the Urban Plains Center and Tournament Facility, and Ceco helped us do just that. Our Authorized Ceco builder suggested several cost-saving strategies to meet our budget, then gave the ICON team the final say in what materials and design to choose to keep costs down.” Kurt continues, “not only did they help us complete the main arena on budget while preserving the integrity of our concept, they completed it on time, too. Despite the construction challenges of completing a project of this scale on a very tight timeline—and right in the middle of a tough Fargo winter—our Ceco builder came through for us.”

Pryor and Morrow frequently rely on the savings and efficiency of custom designed metal buildings to meet their clients’ toughest building challenges. "Cost pressure initially attracted us to metal building systems," says Roger Pryor; "delivery times are better, too." Chris Morrow added, "When building schools, for example, we can get the roof up immediately and work under it. It's really nice to keep all of our construction dry."

"We don't force fit a metal building," Pryor noted, “but we have spent time and effort building relationships with metal building companies like Ceco, and it has paid off for us."

“The original design called for conventional construction techniques in two large structures,” explains FisherHeck partner Carla Pierce, “but when the low bid from our general contractor was outside of our budget parameters, we knew we had to consider other options. Since all other buildings in the project were designed as custom-designed structures, changing two from conventional to custom-designed seemed a good direction. Ceco helped make the transition possible and helped maintain the design and functionality of the buildings. In fact, Ceco’s input on the overall roof system allowed us to preserve our design for a beautiful projecting eave without going over budget."

“Ceco offers a unique fast-track process that allows for smoother field construction and fewer conflicts when time is of the essence," adds Michael Martinez. "With Ceco’s fast track, in as little as one day—or sometimes two on a really big project—the structural engineer, contractor and I can meet with Ceco’s team to review drawings, mark them up, take notes and revise them together, right on the spot. It really speeds up the whole process. I have personally worked with Ceco on two such projects, and I am very pleased with the results. The fast track process is a great success.”
