Justice

Today’s Justice facilities – including correctional institutions, jails, courthouses, and juvenile detention facilities – hardly resemble those built 25 years ago.  Technology plays an ever-increasing role in daily operations.  Facility designs that include provisions for Special Needs inmates, such as those who are developmentally disabled, mentally ill, or have health care needs, are becoming more common.  It is expected that future change, when necessary, must occur without sacrificing user function or the budget.

At Mead & Hunt, our project managers strive to make your lives easier with both our design process and the resulting facility.  We know your facilities must be cost-effective to operate.  Designs that minimize the use of operating funds without jeopardizing security are essential.

In addition, controlling project construction costs from start to finish is an absolute must if you want to develop successful projects that become reality rather than just gathering dust on a shelf.  Mead & Hunt provides owners with a detailed cost analysis at each phase of the project and assists in keeping the project on budget until completion.

Owner participation and involvement of the public is vital for project success.  This enables projects to have stakeholder buy-in and helps eliminate dissension among team members.  A cohesive team helps create a smooth design process and facilitates both legislative and public approval.

After all, we want you to enjoy the planning and design process as much as the end result.
