vendor approaches. Rosscon’s in-house engineering capabilities utilizing AutoCAD and Tekla software enable single-source accountability from initial concept through final delivery, addressing a key pain point for commercial clients managing complex projects. “We do a lot of design-build work in-house. We have our engineering team and our drafting team that can start a project from a basic idea or maybe a little hand sketch,” Rostant explains. Technical advisory services include structural optimization recommendations that can significantly impact project economics.“We do work closely with them to come up with these designs and maybe give them advice on the best, most economical way to do structures that they may not be familiar with.” Government tender requirements often demand comprehensive engineering teams spanning multiple disciplines, indicating public sector preferences for consolidated contractor responsibility. “The government has design-build tenders that we do put together entire teams for, so full MEP, full architectural, full foundation and structural designing from ground up,” Rostant says. These complex procurements require coordination capabilities that smaller fabricators typically cannot provide independently. Complete construction services distinguish Rosscon from steel fabrication specialists who focus exclusively on manufacturing and installation phases.“We are contractors, and we do foundationto-finish work. We’ve done warehouses where we would break ground for the foundations and then we would finish bathrooms and tiles and sinks,” Rostant notes. 22 BUSINESS VIEW CARIBBEAN VOLUME 12, ISSUE 08
