For the past seven years, general contracting professionals from
Rudolph and Sletten have occupied the firm’s Hacienda office at 5980
Stoneridge Drive, overseeing budgeting and contracts for a host of
projects, including preparations for occupancy of three buildings on
Owens Drive near the Dublin Pleasanton BART station. The
structures were recently occupied by State Compensation Insurance Fund
as part of the company’s relocation from San Francisco.
Rudolph and Sletten has had a hand in a number of other major projects
in Hacienda, including Kaiser Permanente’s IT headquarters and the Sun
Microsystems offices. Across the East Bay, it has
worked
with John Muir Hospital, Chiron, U.C. Berkeley and the Molecular
Foundry at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, just to name a
few. Centrally located in the Bay Area and accessible to
Rudolph
and Sletten’s facility in Stockton, the office in Hacienda provides a
convenient place for company engineers to work while involved with
projects in the area.
Shaped by 47 years as a family-owned company, Rudolph and Sletten
became a wholly owned subsidiary of Perini Corporation in
2006-2007. The country’s fourth largest
construction services
company, its projects range from tenant improvement projects to
corporate campuses and included a broad array of services: general
contracting, preconstruction, site selection, design/build, and
construction management.
A few of the firm’s newly-awarded contracts include UCSF’s Mission Bay
Cardiovascular Research Institute, the University of San Diego’s Ernest
and Jean Hahn Center Addition and Renovation and California Institute
of Technology’s Warren & Katharine Schlinger Laboratory for
Chemistry and Engineering in Pasadena.
Rudolph and Sletten is committed to sustainable construction, having
completed numerous LEED-(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
certified projects. The company is a member of the U.S. Green
Building Council, with more than 125 LEED Accredited Professionals
in-house, enabling it to provide valuable input regarding construction
materials and efficient use of resources, saving clients’ money and
reducing the impact of building projects on the environment.
Last
May, the U.S. Green Building Council awarded Rudolph and Sletten its
Gold LEED CI (Commercial Interiors) certification for the buildout of
its new 40,000 square foot Corporate Headquarters at the Pacific Shores
Center in Redwood City.
“Rudolph and Sletten has always blazed new trails – both from a
relationship standpoint with its clients, and from a building
technology standpoint,” says President and CEO Martin Sisemore. “We are
known for cutting edge building technology. That’s the legacy I want to
continue with the organization. We will continue to push the envelope
by providing building technologies for better efficiency that
ultimately create cost savings and better performance for our clients.”
