Collaborative Approach
Brinkmann worked hand-in-hand with Promise to develop and manage this project within strict fundraising parameters. Through constant communication and creative problem-solving, our design-build team delivered a quality facility that balances aesthetic appeal with practical functionality—on schedule and within budget.
Innovative Solutions
The Brinkmann team used creative thinking to get this project under budget so the build could move forward, and one of the biggest tactics implemented was the use of tilt-up construction. This eliminated exterior steel, metal stud framing and sheathing and a high dollar exterior façade, saving the client time and money. Working with ACI Boland Architects, the new design provided a low-maintenance final product while keeping the desired curb appeal and exterior finishes.
Community Impact
The facility provides a nurturing setting where students receive tailored instruction and support services, creating an inclusive environment that promotes learning, development, and growth for children with special needs. Promise Christian Academy is a private, faith-based school that takes a therapeutic approach to special education with specific programs designed to meet all of its students’ individual needs.
