Philosophy

RSSE recognizes that to consistently provide quality consulting services, it is necessary that at least one Principal maintain a committed participation to each project. At project inception, a Principal will work to define our client's needs as clearly as possible, while establishing an open and direct line of communication. Through conceptual and preliminary project phases, RSSE will strive to produce the most economical and constructible design, which satisfies functional, operational and aesthetic restraints. During contract document preparation, special attention will be given to the coordination of non-structural building systems and components and the thorough, unambiguous detailing of the design concept. While the project is under construction, RSSE will provide timely support to insure that our client's needs are met in an expeditious and economical fashion.
