BoldThinking® begins where conventional thinking ends

We have a philosophy here at Boldt—that success requires stepping beyond convention. That’s why we practice BoldThinking—our mindset of collaborative, creative problem solving.

BoldThinking challenges assumptions. It encourages us to approach every project with flexibility, imagination and an eye toward the innovative. And it’s how we push ourselves to deliver greater value—on every project, every time.

If you’re looking for status quo, you’re in the wrong place

BoldThinking is about stretching beyond the traditional. Breaking free from “that’s how we’ve always done it.” Unlocking the potential of your vision through fearless innovation.

It’s a combination of disciplines and processes, designed to help building owners create environments that achieve their highest possible value. BoldThinking brings together:

  • Continuous Improvement
  • Lean Principles
  • Sustainability
  • Multidisciplinary Collaboration
  • Thought Leadership
  • Integrated Lean Project Delivery®

We’re so committed to this kind of thinking that we’ve built it into our culture. Because we believe it’s the best way to build real value for our customers, your customers and the communities we serve.

  • Built-in Quality (BiQ)

    Imagine proactively managing risk and tackling problems before construction even begins. As leaders in Lean project delivery, we took our past learnings and created a process that accounts for quality during design to assure an uninterrupted workflow and avoid rework and delays.

    Learn how the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin Fetal Concerns Center project team successfully used Built-in Quality to plan quality into their work.

  • Safety

    We want to change the way the construction industry thinks about safety. That means establishing comprehensive training programs, a dedicated safety team, jobsite visits, hazard assessments and subcontractor prequalification. It means thorough education to instill a safety mindset in everyone who works with us. We call our program SafeThinking. And with lost-time incidents up to 60 percent lower than national averages, our commitment to safety is truly making a difference.

  • Building Information Modeling (BIM)

    If you could previsualize your building before a single shovel hits the dirt, you’d be able to identify practical problems before they happen. That’s exactly what Building Information Modeling does. Creating a complete, 3D-rendered building allows us to uncover and fix problem areas, virtually experiment with design ideas, evaluate environmental impact and optimize construction flow.

  • Continuous Improvement

    Lean principles are key to the way we work. BoldThinking means we’re constantly pushing ourselves to be better. To find greater efficiencies, eliminate waste and save our customers time and money. If there’s a way to make a process faster, with less waste and better results, we’ll find it.
