Construction Services Department (CSD)
Our Mission
At Construction Services, we strive to support and stimulate the educational goals of the School Board of Sarasota County by constructing safe, sustainable, and inspirational environments for all students, staff and community members. We leverage the talents of our engineering, design, and construction professionals to assure the most cost-effective planning, construction and long-term maintenance cycles of the District’s facilities.
What We Do
We build schools. However, there is so much more than what happens on a job site. CSD is responsible for the administration of capital projects inclusive of project design, construction, permitting and inspections. CSD performs the qualifying, selection, management, payment, reporting and recording functions to assure Federal, State and District requirements are met or exceeded. Our practices are continuously updated to assure effective and efficient outcomes not only during a project but over a facility’s entire lifespan. We do this by working very closely with Operational, Facilites, and Academic Staff from a project’s initiation to its closeout.
Our services include, but are not limited to:
Project Planning & Capital Budgeting
Professional Services Selection
Building Code Administration (Plan Review, Permit & Inspection)
Design and Construction Management
Building Information Management
