BACKGROUND AND HISTORY <br />Architects Design Group (ADG) was established in 1971 by LSX Reeves, V, FAIA as a full <br />service architectural and planning firm, Since then, ADG has grown to a national firm <br />providing spatial needs assessments, programming; site selection / analysis, master <br />planning, project budget analysis, design, and construction administration services for <br />over 350+ governmental agencies across the United States, <br />ADG is a design -oriented firm blending the science of building technology, problem <br />solving, and the art of architecture, We believe in the tenets of authentic, contemporary <br />architecture, and direct our practice to achieve the highest standards of design quality. <br />With each project, we embark on a search for design excellence. Our success reflects the <br />resolution of specific design issues while meeting the functional needs of the program <br />within the established budget, <br />UNIQUE ATTRIBUTES AND QUALITY <br />Over the years, ADG has narrowed its focus from a diversity of project types to a <br />small number of areas of specialization, The primary areas of expertise include design <br />services for law enforcement, public safety, and municipal facilities. Our projects reflect <br />our knowledge of state-of-the-art trends in facility programming and design, as well as <br />our ability to focus collective talents toward innovative applications and cost effective <br />techniques. <br />FINANCIAL STABILITY <br />ADG has served cities and counties since our firm was incorporated 50 years ago in 1971. <br />In that time, we have weathered three severe economic recessions, Financial stability <br />can best be demonstrated in a credit rating which details how a firm rates relative to its <br />payments to creditors, suppliers, and consultants. If payments in these areas are current <br />and within terms, then the firm is meeting all of its obligations and has demonstrated <br />that it has the management and leadership skills necessary to be financially stable over <br />time. <br />The latest Dunn and Bradstreet report demonstrates that 100% of our firm's payments <br />are within terms, The report also notes that 100% of our payments to creditors, suppliers, <br />and consultants are rated as "prompt'; meaning that payments received are within terms <br />granted to us, In addition, the firm has benefited from stable leadership in its corporate <br />officers, We have an established project management and delivery approach which is <br />utilized for each project we undertake, Updated project information is used to track time <br />and individual efforts. <br />This information is then compared to our projected profit / loss expectations. This <br />information can be verified through Dunn and Bradstreet, #013701560, As requested <br />in the RFQ, we have included all required financial information in a separate sealed <br />document for the city's review. <br />17 <br />
