San Juan Unified School District Modernization Program
Carmichael, CA

Overview of a Successful Program
Vanir provided program, project and construction management services for the 1997 Measure S modernization program that successfully modernized 75 schools.

The projects were constructed utilizing both trade contracting/multiple prime and single general contract delivery systems.
