Joe Yerbich Wins March 2020 Core Values Award

Joe Yerbich is a project superintendent out of our Twin Cities office, currently at work on the Roseville High School project, a three-story expansion and multiple area remodel including athletic turf fields, tennis courts, track and field activities totaling 200,500 s.f. He was nominated by Project Manager AJ Lillesve, whose nomination reads:

“Joe has shown incredible patience, TEAMWORK & commitment to the Owner, Design Teams & Subcontractors.  Over 70% of every drawing issued for the project has seen an average of (3) complete revisions with some as high as (10) and many of these changes were discovered by Joe while looking ahead in an effort to help keep the design team in front of the pace of construction.  The success of this project & reduction of re-work has been a culmination of hundreds of hours spent coordinating shop drawings, contract documents & field conditions.  I could present countless specific examples but I would probably need at least 4 more of these nomination forms… Not only has he managed to keep a very complex project moving forward with virtually no re-work he has managed to do it while still bringing a positive attitude to the site everyday.   My hat goes off to Joe for his amazing efforts!   –nominated by AJ Lillesve
