Replacement Projects performed, as expected, with the highest levels of professionalism, safety consciousness and fiscal awareness. The Choctawhatchee High School Project was initially a seven-phase project that was scheduled to take 193 calendar days and require up to twenty portables to house displaced students during Phase 4 of the project. Through extensive pre-planning on your part and by performing future phase work out of sequence, the total number of calendar days was reduced by 56 days - thus eliminating the need to relocate students to portables. This saved the District approximately $300,000 and, more importantly, provided a more secure and safe learning environment for the students and teachers. The success of this project was further enhanced when you and your team were able to replace the existing 200 ton chiller with a new 400 ton chiller. This swap provided redundancy and sequencing capability that did not exist prior to the start of the project. When you relocated the existing 200 ton chiller to Bluewater Elementary over the 19 days of Winter Break, it did not delay the progress of your work or interrupt the school operations at either location. Finally, and as a testament to your dedication and support of us and our client, you were able to increase your scope of work and handle the installation of two (2) large Air Handling Units during the last two (2) weeks of the summer construction period, Your commitment to get the job done and the quality of work provided is to be commended. Phase 1 of the Longwood HVAC Replacement Project was accomplished in 43 calendar days over this past summer. It involved the complete replacement of the mechanical systems that served approximately 36,000 SF (almost two thirds of the school) and included a new cooling tower, new 6” chilled water piping and new individual classroom units. The planning, punctuality and quality of finished work exemplifies the conscientious approach exhibited by the entire Lord & Son team. We are confident that Phase 2 of this project will be just as successful. Mr. Leven Lord August 12, 2010 Page 2 It is important to note that the Project Manager for Lord & Son on both projects was Mr. Ryan Chavers. Ryan always represents your firm with the greatest level of professionalism and we feel that he epitomizes the core values that define Lord & Son. Over the last fifteen years, Lord & Son Construction, Inc. has worked with us to complete fifty-nine projects on the OCSD Construction Program to include a new school in Crestview, numerous additions and renovations and emergency projects. The end result of all of these projects has been exceptional quality. They have all been professionally contracted from inception to completion - regardless of the size of the project. Please pass along our appreciation of your outstanding performance on all of these projects to your entire staff. We appreciate your continued drive for excellence and your adherence to safety on all the projects. We look forward to many more years of building better schools together.

This pre-engineered metal building was completed with EIFS exterior finishes and interior finishes with sheetrock walls and acoustical ceilings. The project was finalized with a parking lot and landscaping on the lot. When Lord & Son was awarded this contract in late October 2013, it had to be completed in four months to meet the deadline of March 1, 2014. In addition to the project already being fast-tracked, there was a two week delay in receiving the metal building followed by another two weeks of bad weather. Through careful coordination and discussions with subcontractors, not only was the project completed on time, it was completed three days ahead of schedule.
