The Bihn Approach

Government & Civic work, run with discipline.

Public-sector work lives or dies on documentation. Government and civic projects run under competitive sealed bidding, performance and payment bonds, prevailing-wage and certified-payroll requirements where they apply, E-Verify and public-contract compliance, and inspection regimes that leave no room for improvisation.

Bihn Construction manages that discipline as routine: clean submittals, open-book cost tracking, and the paper trail public owners require. We coordinate the engineers of record, the fire marshal, and every authority having jurisdiction; sequence third-party special inspections and materials testing; hold to ADA accessibility and full code; and honor any disadvantaged-business participation goals a project carries. Where a civic building stays in service, we phase the work around continuous public operations.

The outcome is a civic facility that opens on schedule, clears every inspection, and stands up to the audit that follows public funds.
