With as long of a history as JHAI has, why would we join a network of referral based clients? A diversified architectural company like ours continually provides services for all types of clients. To keep new clients coming into the fold is always a sign of a company’s strength and keeps us sharp and excited about our work. Joining social media and actively participating within it get JHAI greater exposure. Thumbtack provides another vehicle in which to maintain and expand our client base. It also validates our services at a higher level, in that they pre-qualify our abilities, history, and financial backbone. We are looking for clients that look for professional services, whether for consultation or full architectural services. We enjoy meeting and assisting new people and companies with new ideas, new ways of doing business, which add to our approximate 2000 projects and 1000 clients. A diversified client and project pool meets our professional goals. This is what we are set up to do!

Going above and beyond the primary scope of architectural services usually cannot be seen as you proceed through a project. You see it once built and then the appreciation enters your mind. If you are a first time client or a fully seasoned development machine the end result for you on the quality of the design, schedule, budgets, users efficiency, maintenance, flexibility all come down to the pride in which services are rendered. To achieve all the parameters at a high level is not easy, especially in these times of ever changing processes, communications, government restrictions, financing issues, and many other parameters. Having the stamina and strength of repeated leadership roles, team playing can be a lot to digest for anyone.
I and my company, JHAI, are truly engaged in assisting our clients to maximize their specific goals in achieving a successful project, one at a time. Each project is unto itself and treats with extreme care and follow up. We want a successful project as much or more than each of our clients. Without the success of each project we could lose a lot of credibility. Our success rate is close to 100% on over 2000 projects and hundreds of clients. Each project gives us the tools to do even better the next time for we do not believe in just maintaining our current abilities but we want to expand on our ability to lead. The" Architect" is the conductor of the whole design team in most cases. Each project leads to another opportunity to exceed our client’s expectations. Understanding each team member’s expectations is very important to how each participant views the project during its active phases and at project close out.
When “Passion” is mentioned along with one’s occupation, the person mentioning it always has a smile on their face. This is what people tell me all the time. "We see that you love what you do."
”Your passion for achieving our goals can be seen just by watching how you go about the design, especially while on a site walk". “You really love what you do". I would be the one with a big smile on my face.
The Producer role is like the developer. They put the entire package together. We put the design, team, budget, and schedule together in real terms from the start of a project investigation all the way through to the design, production, construction, and if needed the commissioning of a project. We act as the producer, manager, conductor, designer, shrink, advisor, researcher, project, construction manager, government approval facilitator, expeditor, lobbyist, and any other role that is needed. Whatever the client wants to do on their own is taken off our list of responsibilities. The more the client wants us involved, the more we can assist in keeping all aspects of the project on track.
We make it happen! We get the job done. We have invested in a great deal of education and research in our almost 30 years of business. With the knowledge we have on so many types of projects, it has given us the tools to respond to a tremendous amount of opportunity. We have learned to communicate with all of our clients enabling us to get the job done. To accomplish the completion of a built project JHAI functions as the designer, the project manager, and the businessman. Each of these is independently required to pull off a built project while meeting client goals. Our level of success is close to 100%, not counting projects put on hold by clients.
