PUTNAM October 3. 2013 I o whom it may Concern My name is Craig Christ and I am a Construction Project Consultant employed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, located in Tallahassee, Florida. The purpose of this letter is my recommendation of CPH, Inc.. 500 West Fulton, Street, Sanford. F1.32 771. 1 have been a project manager for the State of Florida for I 9-years and in that time I have worked with multiple design professionals in the state. From my experience- CPH Inc. is one of. if not the best design firm I have worked with. My relationship with CPH started in 2001 with the rash of hurricanes we experienced in 200-1 and 2005. I work for the Division of Marketing. Bureau of Slate Farmers' Markets and we sustained major damage at several of our properties. CPH was selected as the design firm for our market located in Wauchula_ F un& which had sustained major damage. This project was estimated at S45 million and included 2- replacement buildings I -major repair that replaced 'k of an existing building and major repairs to 2 -other buildings on site. Not only did CPH perform their duties flawlessly on this complex project, this was the smoothest reconstruction project we undertook in the smmt men%e . CPII was also instrumental in our securing 100% funding from FEMA for this project due to their damage assessments. analysis. written technical reports and meetings with FEMA. In fact, they traveled to Orlando on Christmas Lve. 2006 bin meet with us and FEMA uw finalize the scope of work and secure our funding. I was so impressed with their performance on the Wauchula project that 1 have since contracted with them for 6 other projects. These other projects have really run the gambit as far as scope of work is cencemcd. We have used their services for such diverse projects as a communication line relocation (which was a very complex project), partial demolition and addition pmjects, steel platform repairs and they are currently working on a new retail sales building to be located at our market in Ft. Pierce Florida. which also includes demolition - As you can see. I have worked with CPH on quite a variety of projects from the straight - forward new building construc6un to what can only be described a unusual- projects. The only commonality in the pmjects was the performance of CPH. These projects ranged from S4- million- to 5100.000, but they were all handled the same by CPH. I have found them to be professional, dedicated• asponsive and a pleasure to work with_ They always return my calls the same day and have gone to the projects on a moments notice when 1 needed them. I highly recommend CPFI, Inc. for all of your design needs. regardless of size or scope of work. They have simply never let me down. Should you have any questions. or wish to discuss my experience with CPH. Inc.. please don't hesitate to contact me.
