Gafcon PM-CM LLC: Who We Are

Founded in 1987, Gafcon is a family-founded firm delivering complex projects that strengthen and empower communities. We are a project and construction management consulting firm, acting as Owner’s Representatives to guide and advocate for our clients throughout every phase of their projects. We specialize in development and construction management services for both public and private sector clients. With a client-first mindset, we use advanced technologies and proven management practices to ensure transparency, foster confident decision-making, and deliver results aligned with each owner's vision. Our approach is centered on managing scope, schedule, and budget with precision—ensuring every project stays on track, meets expectations, and maximizes value.

In 2024, our family-owned company joined GISI (Global Infrastructure Solutions Inc.), a global network of industry leaders. While our ownership changed, our operating business, leadership, and company culture remained unchanged. What did change was our reach—we’ve expanded our breadth of knowledge and gained access to a wider network of industry partners, strengthening the services and solutions we offer our clients.

Our strength lies in our people. Gafcon is home to a dedicated team of over 130 professionals in program, project, and construction management—individuals who are not only experts in their fields but are also passionate about continuous learning and innovation. We cultivate a collaborative and inclusive culture that values diverse ideas, ethical leadership, and shared success.

At Gafcon, one of our core principles is to “create value for our clients, our communities, and for each other.” We’re deeply committed to giving back—whether it’s cleaning beaches, supporting service members, or volunteering at local charities. We work hard, celebrate together, and strive to make a lasting, positive impact in everything we do.
