How 39Forward Elevates Building Projects for Owners

Your business is thriving, and now you’re standing on the brink of a transformational building project. Excitement tingles through your arms, making the hair stand on end. Your stomach twists into knots of anticipation as you realize how rare this opportunity might be—maybe once a decade, if that. You’re both exhilarated and anxious, knowing you need to get this right for the future of your enterprise.

So, where do you start?

The Pressure to Get It Right

The goal is to accomplish something truly exceptional. You want a space that stands the test of time—a place that fuels growth and reflects your core purpose. At the same time, you and your team aren’t construction or design experts, and this project is only one of many priorities. You’re not entirely sure who can guide you, which steps to take, or which pitfalls to avoid. Still, you’re confident in your timeline, committed to your budget, and crystal clear about why you’re doing this in the first place.

Often, business owners try to handle it alone. They ask family, friends, neighbors, or industry contacts, and then piece together a project plan from limited knowledge. The result can be stress, disappointment, and missed opportunities. Without the right guidance, even a “successful” project could turn out bad for business in the long run. That’s why you need a team that understands your vision and knows how to bring it to life.

The Traditional Path: Just Getting Things Done

Many owners rely on personal connections to hire design and construction professionals who have their own business objectives and focus on delivering projects on time, on budget, and as specified. While that’s valuable, it often centers on checking off tasks rather than aligning with a bigger vision. The question usually is: Did we finish on time and within budget? But that doesn’t necessarily translate to meaningful success.

When teams focus only on short-term project goals, they risk losing sight of the “why.” They might forget to ask how the space can amplify your brand, empower your employees, inspire your customers, or keep evolving as the company grows. True innovation and long-term impact can be lost in the scramble to just “get it done.”

39Forward: Taking the Owner’s Vision Higher

This is where 39Forward comes in. We don’t just lead building projects; we create experiences that support and expand your business goals. By becoming part of your team, we bridge the gap between aspiration and execution. We champion your ideas, refine them, and push them further so your business can reach new heights. Through every twist and turn of the process, we stay by your side, making sure you never feel alone in this journey.

How We Do It

Deep-Dive Discovery

We begin by fully immersing ourselves in your business to learn why this project matters and how it can strengthen your future. We uncover who will use the space, how it can add real value, and where it fits into your larger business plans. This isn’t just a quick Q&A—it’s an experiential engagement where we listen closely, ask targeted questions, and internalize your goals so every decision along the way delivers impact.

Holistic Alignment

Our role is to ensure every detail—from materials and layout to workflow—aligns with your broader strategy. Instead of simply fulfilling a list of requests, we continuously check decisions against your vision. Is it good for your business long term? Does it support team productivity and well-being? By thinking big-picture, we ensure the team designs a space that’s flexible, future-proof, and truly reflective of your mission.

Rethinking Success

Most firms see success as opening the doors on time and on budget. At 39Forward, we measure success by the positive ripple effects your space creates—invigorated staff, improved customer experiences, increased loyalty, and a lasting sense of purpose. We hold ourselves and our partners accountable not just for technical completion but for delivering a transformative outcome.

Collaboration and Accountability

We don’t believe in one-sided conversations. With our expertise, we guide owners through the complexities, challenge assumptions, and foster an atmosphere of creativity and open communication. Everyone on the team—from contractors to architects—knows the bigger vision and remains committed to it. When each person is accountable for both the process and the outcome, you get better, more holistic results.

A Better Way to Succeed

At 39Forward, our aim isn’t to merely finish a project; we strive to propel your business forward. We manage design and construction with a strategic mindset, ensuring every choice delivers both immediate and long-term benefits. By operating as an extension of your team, we take care of the details without losing sight of the overarching vision.

A new building is much more than bricks and mortar; it’s an expression of your brand, values, and ambitions. With that in mind, we create spaces where talented people want to work and customers want to engage—places that spark creativity, fuel collaboration, and bring tangible returns on your investment.

When you partner with 39Forward, you aren’t just checking off a project milestone. You’re investing in innovative thinking, seasoned guidance, and a process laser-focused on making your business thrive—today and into the future. Ready to redefine what project success can be?
