It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation and reference for the construction management firm, The Palombo Group (“TPG”). I have worked closely with TPG on two major building projects, including the Beacon Fire Station renovation currently underway in Beacon and the SUNY Ulster Satellite Campus project in Kingston for which I served as Ulster County’s Project Manager.

I have found The Palombo Group’s management team to be very knowledgeable, professional, detail-oriented, and dependable. Their insights regarding project planning, bidding, and managing contractors during the construction process have been invaluable throughout both projects. They have assisted us in making both large and small decisions whenever we have come up against significant design issues, site constraints, and unforeseen contingencies. Most importantly, they have provided the leadership necessary to keep all the contractors working together and on schedule and within budget.

The City of Beacon’s current firehouse project has faced a number of difficult obstacles, but TPG has managed those challenges quickly and effectively before they impacted the project timeline, budget, or quality. The project more than fifty percent complete, and the experience and diligence has made the project run smoothly. On a personal note, it has been a pleasure to work with both the site and office staff at TPG.

Based on my recent and prior experience with The Palombo Group, I would recommend them without hesitation. If you would like to discuss TPG further, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at cwhite@beaconny.gov or (845) 838-5009.
