Native American Heritage


Oklahoma was transitioning from Indian Territory to statehood just as the company that was
to become Flintco was founded by C. W. Flint, Sr. It is with this same spirit of family, hard
work, and pride in a job well done that has guided Flintco’s maturing today as a leading
general contractor with more than 1,100 employees. Despite our growth and ranking Flintco
remains a privately-held Native American-owned company – now in its third generation of Flint
family ownership.

As the largest Native American–owned contractor in the world, Flintco is honored to be


selected as the contractor of choice based upon our experience in Indian Country. The Redbird
Smith Health Center in Sallisaw, Okla. marked the beginning of Flintco’s long list of Native
American building projects. Today, the tradition continues through many successful
partnerships that have been forged with over 65 Indian Nations – a reflection of Flintco’s
understanding and honoring of each distinctive culture.

At Flintco, we are proud of our contributions to improving the quality of life for Native
Americans on tribal lands around the country by building much-needed facilities, including:
community centers, gaming venues, health care facilities, hospitality and leisure projects,
retail centers and schools.

In addition to generating jobs and promoting self reliance, the people of Flintco are helping
deliver a brighter future for Native Americans throughout the U.S. through the construction of
these facilities.

Building Better Communities
Sensitivity to cultural nuances and respect for traditional values has placed Flintco in a position
to best meet each Native American client’s needs. By including the tribe, pueblo, or rancheria
as a fully vested team member throughout the construction process, Flintco is able to cultivate
mutually beneficial relationships that result in a project that truly reflects the community.

Developing Constructive Solutions goes far beyond the construction of a facility. At Flintco, we
also actively seek ways in which we can help build better communities by supporting economic
growth that focuses on a concerted effort in mentoring Native American and minority
subcontractors, as well as hiring and training Native American workers. Since receiving our
first Tribal Employment Rights Certification in 1991, Flintco has obtained certifications from
many additional tribes who recognize our concerted efforts to provide meaningful employment
and training opportunities.

Flintco’s commitment to establishing training programs in the construction trades provides


Native American workers the ability to develop skills in carpentry and other crafts they can
take back to their communities – skills that last a lifetime. Over the years, Flintco has been
honored with such awards as the National Minority Business Advocate of the Year award from
the U.S. Department of Commerce for outstanding performance in the service industry and
excellent service to the minority community. For additional insight into the caliber of Flintco

Hospitality: Experience Flintco’s Five-Star Service


One doesn’t have to travel far to experience the quality and superior service that are
hallmarks of every Flintco construction project. We’ve built a five-star reputation in the lodging
industry – from destination resorts and casino hotels to boutique accommodations and
national chain motels. When the grand opening depends on construction commitments being
kept, clients know they can depend on Flintco to deliver on their promises. In anticipation of
that first guest gracing the doorway, hotel developers and facilities managers alike call on
Flintco’s hospitality expertise to provide constructive solutions to accommodations that will
stand the test of time.

Whether it’s a one-of-a-kind opportunity to shine on a high profile historic renovation – like
the Hilton Skirvin Hotel in downtown Oklahoma City – or completion of our fourth AmeriSuites
property, our hospitality clients can rest assured Flintco is here to stay.

Putting Technology to Work
For Flintco, keeping up with technology means more than just purchasing the latest scheduling
and project control programs. Developing proprietary technological advances and a solid
database of information are just a few of the ways we’ve institutionalized innovation at Flintco.

Our individual project Web sites and “extranet” capabilities ensure secured sharing of project
status and contract documents – including real-time Web cams, the latest project progress
photos, and up-to-the-minute drawings to ensure all team members are on the same page –
throughout the life of the project. Clients rely on Flintco for detailed and individualized project
information.

A secured infrastructure provided by Flintco’s in-house Information Technology team supports


project communication round-the-clock. Flintco clients and team members – from designers
and end users to subcontractors and agency reviewers – can participate in virtual
communication through video conferencing in each of our nine offices throughout the U.S.
Utilizing technology rather than travel makes good business sense – in both budget and time
savings.

Being able to keep our finger on the pulse of your project and provide accurate status reports
at virtually any point along the way is just one element of Flintco’s project delivery system.

Preconstruction
Imagine being able to foresee stumbling blocks in your construction project far in advance of
breaking ground. That is precisely what involving Flintco in the preconstruction design effort
allows you to do – address questions up front to reduce the chance of surprises down the
road.

Seeing the Big Picture


Having a handle on the entire building process – from planning and conceptual design through
construction and grand opening – is important to Flintco clients who like to envision the big
picture. Equally important is knowing what it’s all going to cost long before construction
begins. Bringing Flintco into the picture for preconstruction allows our clients to make
informed decisions based on solid input.
In concert with the owner, designers and engineers, Flintco develops a feasible, cost-effective
budget though the use of such tools as value analysis, constructability reviews, and phasing
plans. Together, we identify challenges and define solutions up front, rather than experiencing
issues in the field. The result – our clients receive the benefit of saving both time and money
with sound budgets prepared by Flintco in the preconstruction phase that they can literally
“take to the bank”.

Construction Management
When Flintco provides Construction Management (CM) services, we are selected based on
project expertise, staff qualifications, and track record of performance. This assures our clients
are getting the best value for their construction dollars.

Keeping Time
With Flintco’s Construction Management services, clients control the project while our
experienced CM team of experts handle the day-to-day construction issues and keep the
project on track.

Sticking to Budgets
Our CM experts can identify cost-effective solutions to project challenges that respect your
design intent and comply with overall project objectives.

Lowering Risk
Committing to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) – assuring that the project will be
constructed for no more than the amount in the signed contract is one way Flintco helps
owners reduce risk. As your client representative, we apply our century of construction
experience to every project – reducing your risk as well as your worries.

Design-Build
The hallmark of a Design-Build project is that only one organization is responsible to the
owner for both the design and construction of the facility, which fosters communication and
team focus on the project objectives. Flintco has proven the merit of this single-point-of-
contact time and again having successfully executed design-build construction projects – from
schools and prisons to hotels and hospitals.

Speeding Delivery While Maintaining Quality


Since construction in the Design-Build project delivery method runs concurrently with the
design process, your project can be completed more quickly than the traditional linear method
or contracting offer.
As drawings are developed, Flintco serves as a single point of contact working with the
designers to help define functional requirements, hone the budget, and streamline the
schedule. Our ability to identify long-lead items, phase construction, and prepare bid packages
that make sense has proven to save months on the schedule, reduce change orders, and save
Flintco clients millions in design and construction costs.

Program and Project Management
Whether you are pursuing the construction of one project or are faced with the seemingly
daunting task of a multi-building program, Flintco makes the complex process of building
easier. With Flintco’s comprehensive Program and Project Management services, we will
coordinate every aspect of your construction – from project planning and hiring a design team
to scheduling and cost estimating, and the nitty-gritty details of government statute
compliance to the day-to-day details involved in technical and management support.

Taking the Guesswork Out of Decision Making


As your single point of contact, Flintco provides cohesive management from start to finish so
you understand the precise timeline and dollar impact of each decision. At every point along
the way you will be able to know where we are in the schedule, be provided a count-down to
your occupancy date and red-flagging of any items requiring owner action, offered an analysis
of materials quality and life cycle costing as they relate to operations and maintenance
decisions, and see an up-to-the-minute estimate of costs.
Our pledge to you is that Flintco will provide accurate, relevant information so you can make
informed decisions at all stages of project development. We’ve proven time and again that you
can save both time and money by utilizing Flintco’s Program and Project Management Services
– that’s what our clients call the "Flintco peace of mind."
