Once we become a member of the construction team, we gain an understanding of our client’s ultimate objective, and strategize to best accomplish the stated goals.

COMMUNICATION
We lead the process every step of the way
We foster a team approach by working closely with the client, architect, building personnel and other vendors. As part of our construction management process, we hold regular meetings and provide timely communication throughout the course of the project. These meetings provide a forum to incorporate site tours, discuss issues, and identify potential concerns so that they may be addressed in an effective and efficient manner.

SATISFACTION
Pride is our motivator
The result of our combined efforts is a project that all parties involved can take pride in. Along the way, we will have provided value engineering proposals and suggestions to help produce a first rate project result in the most economical manner. With over 25 years of experience, we proudly state that we continuously deliver on schedule and on budget.
Working with CDI on our office renovation was an absolute pleasure. The professionalism they brought to the project was several levels above any other general contractor that I've worked with. CDI kept us in budget, on time, and delivered a beautiful office that our team loves to work in. Thank you CDI!

Over a 25-year span, CDI Construction has come through on-time and on-budget for my clients in the legal, marketing, and non-profit fields. CDI’s pricing estimates are accurate and realistic. This “no surprises” approach to construction makes me look good to my clients as their Tenant Rep.

CDI has been doing work exclusively at our vintage 400,000 SF 25 E Washington in the Loop for the last several years and I couldn’t be happier with the job that the Adam Smith and his team has done. CDI brings the key elements of a great Landlord GC relationship by keeping the job sites and common areas looking great, minimizing any disruption to neighboring tenants and bringing the jobs in on budget and on time. I am especially appreciative of their ability to creatively find value-engineering solutions that don’t compromise the end product, yet enable us to keep our TI costs as low as possible. As such, I can without hesitation provide CDI my highest recommendation.

Aspire Properties
Having CDI as part of a construction team from start to finish ensures a smooth process, a timely completion within budget, and an outstanding finished product. Their understanding of the owner’s perspective on every project, coupled with their excellent project management skills, makes them a standout in the general contracting arena.
Joe Degliomini, Director
Capital Projects; Colliers International
CDI was a great construction partner on the project. We were on a very tight timeline and they were on top of every aspect of the work. Communication was great, they identified issues quickly and we worked together to resolve. We knew there would be overtime on this job to meet the deadline and they managed the schedules to use those hours when we really needed them. It was a pleasure working with them from start to finish.
Katy Eldridge, VP, Integration and Operations
We love our new offices, and Jeff and CDI had everything to do with that! Your tradesmen were remarkably talented. CDI’s communication during the process was unparalleled and your onsite management was superb. Huge shout out to Denny Dahlin and Kevin Reiken for keeping this project on-time (despite many supply chain challenges) so that we were able to move in when promised. Our offices are a testament to your work product! On behalf of Heritage-Crystal Clean LLC, thank you!
David Chameli, Executive Vice President
We were highly satisfied in our partnership with CDI. Construction began just at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. When it seemed the world shut down for a time (including two city-wide construction shutdowns), the CDI team never stopped finding creative solutions to complete our job timely. They were a pleasure to get to know, and they do excellent work.
Brendan McCarthy, Vice President
Brown Brothers Harriman & Co.
CDI has been an integral team member on a multimillion-dollar 18-month long construction project for one of my class A office buildings located at 5600 Pearl Street, Rosemont, IL.
They provided an accurate budget, a complete and through bid, and worked with our tenant to implement a list of highly specialized requirements. Having CDI as our trustworthy partner with this construction project was imperative to its success.
I'm hoping that CDI will continue to grow and serve other markets where I own class A commercial real estate so that we can further the success we've established with this project.

John and Laurie - I just wanted to take this time to give my appreciation for the construction project completion at our facility located in Rosemont, Illinois. As you know, this was a long project with big expectations and the project was a very big success. My staff and I worked with your very professional construction workers on a daily basis. They were always timely, worked well with our demands and were very diligent in their construction results. Their craftsmanship was fantastic and I had several of our staff come to me with how nice the building presented itself. Again, the building has been renovated beyond expectations by your very professional staff and you should be very proud of their efforts!

The name… CDI Construction is synonymous with dependability. Laurie Price finished our monstrous medical office {project} promptly, and I could not find one item that was not finished. …she really cares that she does no less than a stellar job.
Evan L. Lipkis, MD
Advanced Center For Total Healthcare - Glenview, IL
CDI’s ability to understand their clients and their needs is reflected in the fact that they were able to offer us solutions and give us the opportunity to explore all options. I worked very closely with Laurie Price and her staff during our build-out. Our gratitude and satisfaction could not have been greater. They helped make the process of creating a patient friendly environment that is also conducive to the practice of medicine much easier. Not only did they adhere to our budget, but the candid communication and timeline was right on target.
Joel Brodsky
The Derm - Glenview, IL
We were extremely happy with CDI and the team they assembled to support our new headquarter buildout. The CDI Team was very responsive and present during the entire build. The subcontractors worked well together to bring the project in on time and on budget. Our staff has moved in and is enjoying our new space.
Bill Bishop
Director of Engineering
For our tenant improvements, CDI Construction Group was chosen as our GC based on recommendation of the landlord. With a really tight move-in date and short timeframe, CDI came through and delivered as promised — the project was on time and in budget. The staff was professional, easy to work with, and willing to adapt to changes. They used high quality subs, and Denny Dahlin our PM was exceptional! I am looking forward to working with them again.
