Domestic - Project Management Whether on an Island in the Canadian Shield, skyscraper in Downtown Toronto, or in the Nova Scotia wilderness Gib-San has the expertise to manage projects anywhere!

11 Domestic - Project Management Whether on an Island in the Canadian Shield, skyscraper in Downtown Toronto, or in the Nova Scotia wilderness Gib-San has the expertise to manage projects anywhere! Versatility in constructing a pool out of sheer rock on an island in Ontario s cottage country - to some this is extreme construction - but to Gib-San it s one of many construction challenges that have been met and that successfuly demonstrate the extent of experience and expertise brought to every project. These challenges are also opportunities to apply and showcase the skills of Gib-San s master craftsmen that over the past decades have brought projects in on time, on budget and within expectations. Intricate design-build capabilities for onsite and remote location management are the hallmarks of the Gib-San construction group. Our project range includes commercial installations in hi-rise as well as inground locations, and it s this range of experience that differentiates Gib-San from anyone else. This established proficiency is why Gib-San personnel have been on the Board of the Master Pools Guild, pre-eminent organization of the finest pool builders in the world, as well as the recipient of many industry awards and accreditations related to their work over 40 years. Passionate commitment to highest quality construction throughout the Greater Toronto Area and Canada coast to coast, Gib-San installations resonate in meeting client and ISO requirements. Decades later customers come back to upgrade or redesign their installations - a testament to Gib-San s reputation and the high esteem it has earned. There is truly no substitute for the Gib-San award winning construction and project management capabilities when it comes to your installation no matter where it is located. 11

12 International - Project Management Logistic skills to design and build the world s finest pools anywhere - North America, the Caribbean, Europe & Middle East. The logistics of building at a distance requires expertise in planning and materials coordination. Many locations are quite remote with very limited supply of materials and equipment. This is where Gib-San s experience comes into play. Gib-San site supervisors and skilled tradesmen are experienced at working in remote locations that pose unique challenges. For instance, special forms for water features are often pre-built and shipped for on-site re-assembly to maintain quality. Knowing how to plan for the unexpected is what makes the difference in quality and project management. Decades of experience have provided Gib-San craftsmen the insight to take on unique requests with results that are industry leading and defining. This, as well as being able to meet installation challenges is a key reason why the Gib-San Design-Build Consulting group continues to be engaged by international architectural and engineering firms. Originality is the hallmark of Gib-San s capabilities in meeting and exceeding challenging Project Management and Consulting projects. Pool designs and installations have included a build 68 stories above ground in high rise towers in Abu Dhabi, UAE, waterfront estate compound in St.Kitts, and resort wide pool system and water features in Saint Maarten. No matter where in the world the installation is located, you can count on Gib-San to perform! 12
