Throughout Stewart’s career he has directly overseen and managed preconstruction and construction efforts resulting in over $1.5B in hard and negotiated bids, over $1.5B in conceptual and preliminary budgets, and more than $500M in successful construction projects completed across the U.S. within virtually every major residential and commercial market segment.  Charles has experience administering every major contract delivery method including stipulated sum, design-build, design-assist, CMAR, and cost-plus.

“Do it right or not at all.”  Charles believes FORTEN is, at its core, simply a customer service provider that happens to build.  His corporate philosophy doesn’t include a fancy company mission, vision, or core values.  At the end of the day, we want to build a company and a culture centered on doing the right thing no matter the cost while providing our clients with a high level of service and quality at a competitive price, make a fair fee, and repeat that over and over again.
