RockTalk the Podcast

Executive Vice President Rodney Jenny joins the podcast to explain how his team recently won a $200m joint venture at San Francisco International Airport that will get started in 2021. Graniterock will partner with DeSilva Gates on this Construction Manager General Contractor - CMGC - project, forming a partnership called Golden Gate Constructors. 
What is CMGC and what does it mean for Graniterock People? 
Rodney talks about how the CMGC process differs from the traditional bid-build and how this SFO job is only the first for Graniterock in what's likely to be a more efficient project delivery method for owners and contractors.
In addition, this project demonstrates how the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent drop in air travel motivated SFO to catch up on runway maintenance and other related airfield projects. 
Stay listening to the end when Rodney answers five rapid-fire questions that are fun and personal.
As always, big thanks to podcast producer Janae Thomas for her great work in getting this show put together.
