Our Services

Create value. Deliver quality.

Our mission is to disrupt industry standards with a focused approach built on a two-sided objective — create value and deliver quality. Our team works on behalf of the ownership team as an extension of their own staff, holding the interests of the owner as our first priority.

01

Market-Driven Research

Our construction professionals regularly research market-leading material suppliers and manufacturers — assessing quality, integrity, and proposed design specifications to provide value-added alternatives while delivering on the intended design of your project.

02

Negotiated Owner-Direct Prices

Focused, negotiated unit pricing in specific submarkets optimizes cost competitiveness by leveraging higher volumes. Our trusted partnerships operate at the distributor and manufacturer levels — selected for industry-leading standards and owner-direct pricing.

03

Owner Material Standards

We work directly with the owner and design team to develop customized, industry-leading material standards with transparent pricing — keeping the owner in control of specified materials while removing layers of middleman markups.

04

Management of Material Transactions

As the owner's materials procurement representative, CNA manages full purchasing transactions on behalf of the ownership team — ensuring specifications are accurately represented and deliveries are verified and tracked.

Installation Services

From spec to installed — one accountable partner.

CNA pairs procurement with managed installation, so finish packages arrive on time, on budget, and to spec — reducing coordination risk for owners and general contractors alike.
