At Birch, ownership isn't just a buzzword; it's a way of life. “My favorite part about my job is seeing a project develop from the ground up,” says Melissa Angel, accounting for Birch. “I have a deep passion for supporting our team as well as problem solving! I’ve been in construction AP for over 15 years and use my skills to build relationships with vendors and subcontractors across North Texas. I own those relationships and believe it’s important that our trade partners are paid in a timely manner.” Melissa celebrates the role of women in the construction industry and appreciates how their leadership drives our purpose. “I like how far women in construction have come. Birch is a special place. Our women are in the office and in the field working together to solve construction challenges and build places that truly help people, help people.” #wicweek #wicweek24 #26yearsofwicweek #womeninconstructionweek2024 #womeninconstruction #womeninconstructionweek #construction #constructionlife #womeninbusiness #accounting

Birch is going vertical! We're using drones on our PopStroke project. Aerial shots not only help us with site logistics, but they allow us to inspect areas of the building that we would otherwise not be able to see from the ground. "When technology is introduced in construction, innovation happens," says Cameron Warren, Project Superintendent. "In less than 10 minutes, we are able to document every square foot of a 5-acre site, giving us rough as-builts of utilities as they're being installed and creating the highest level of quality control." This level of documentation also creates peace of mind for our partners. "Paired with our 360° photo documentation of the interior of the building, we're able to document every aspect of the building process from groundbreaking to substantial completion," says Jesse Borhaug, Project Manager for this PopStroke project. "It's a great tool and helps us communicate project progress and visualize items under discussion with greater context." @j.borhaug @camwar2 @grandscapetx @popstroke #construction #drone #video #photography #quality #projectmanagement #innovation #technology #dallas #fortworth #texas #building #golf #entertainment

We’re thankful for some incredible colleagues at Birch! Today, we're recognizing these individuals for their awesome achievements: Tanner Lloyd was elected to serve as Co-Chair for the 2024 Community Investment Project for @trecdallas. Tanner's involvement in TREC shows his dedication and passion for learning all sides of our industry. Will Arnold III M.CD is currently serving as the CEO of 4 For The Future. His after-school mentoring initiative provides students with guidance in time management, emotional intelligence, "grit" and college/career readiness in addition to meals, uniforms and laptops for life. A project engineer for Birch, his leadership inspired our first charitable matching program. Reajina Singh Maharjan is a mentor of @ace_dfw and helps inspire high school students to pursue careers in architecture, engineering and construction. Reajina has given back to our community in countless ways in her years with ACE. Lana Blanchard and Adan Velazquez are working with @urbanlandinstitute's Building Industry Leaders program to mentor North Texas high school students on career opportunities in commercial real estate. They both demonstrate a passion for offering support to young professionals and encouraging career development. "At Birch, we have the unique opportunity to learn from each other," says Matt Smith. "Our clients, trade partners and colleagues embrace ownership of our purpose and truly want to help people, help people. It's intentional effort and I'm thankful for their willingness to be leaders in our community.” #leadership #communityinvolvement #giveback #thanks #people #dogood #buildcommunity #thanksgiving

The world needs more women in construction and last week, Reajina Singh Maharjan collaborated with ACE Mentor Program of America and other industry experts to inspire just that. Speaking to students from schools across North Texas, Reajina shared her experience as an estimator for Birch, a woman and a minority working in construction. After her presentation, she also helped lead a hands-on activity that emphasized the importance of clear and concise communication during the preconstruction process. The students divided into two teams. One group designed a Lego structure and created plans and elevation. Those documents were then handed off to their teammates who built the Lego structure from the drawings and issued RFIs with any questions, using written responses as the only communication between the two teams. "Mentoring young high school students through the ACE program is a rewarding experience," says Reajina. "I'm grateful to ACE for creating a platform which fosters the connection between seasoned professionals and enthusiastic young minds. It's inspiring to witness their curiosity and help shape their future." @regnasingh #construction #mentor #ACEmentor #mentorshipprogram #womeninconstruction #communication #dallas #texas #JustImagine #BehindTheBricks #women #highschool

It's the most wonderful time of the year… our Founding Day celebration! Founding Day represents our people, our values and the hard work that brought us to this point. Last Friday, our team gathered at @haywireuptown to celebrate together. The evening was full of selfies, fist-bumps and lot of laughs. “Our appreciation extends to the entire Birch family,” said Tyler Berns. “We’re so thankful for each leader in our firm, their families and the sacrifices they make to help us build Birch. It’s a special experience. We’ve grown so much in four years and we’re excited about new opportunities to help more people in year five.” #milestone #celebration #anniversary #people #leaders #team

From greenfield to ballfield! In our second project with @grapevinefaith, we transformed an unused back lot into a state-of-the-art baseball stadium. Watch the video below to see the transformation. The new stadium features: > 27,000 SF of @official.fieldturf DoublePlay Natural turf, the same system used on college and pro fields > A highly-sophisticated drainage system to support the innovative field turf system, thank you to @pelotonland and @pachecokoch for getting this project across the finish line > @mitchellexcavation led demo and excavation > @muscosportslighting Light-Structure System, designed to reduce glare, wasteful light and energy consumption by 80 percent, installed by R & L Electric, Inc. #education #sports #grapevinefaith #construction #dfw #texas #architecture #engineering #students

Yesterday was a beautiful day for the groundbreaking of PopStroke at Grandscape! Their first North #Texas location, in the Colony, will feature two 18-hole Tiger Woods-designed putting courses, a full-service restaurant, bar, playground and ice cream parlor. "Birch has been a great partner for this project,” said Shane Robichaud, President at PopStroke Greens. “Prior to construction, they were willing to jump in to coordinate and execute orders for long lead time materials. Now that construction has started, they have done a great job of managing the daily details and upcoming critical path items that help keep a project on schedule.” We’re on track to deliver PopStroke in early 2024! Follow the Birch #instagram or #linkedin page to see our updates along the way.

We met so many great people at the @cowboysgolfclub last week! Thanks to everyone who said hello, and thanks to EarthTones Design for putting on a great event. We look forward to the next time we can tee it up together! #golf #dallas
