To Whom It may concern,
I have had the opportunity to work with, Pauly Jail Building Company, installing Pre-fabricated Modular Steel cells on the Franklin County Corrections Center, in Columbus, Ohio. Pauly Jail furnished and installed over 140 prefabricated steel detention cells on the 2nd floor of the new jail. Phillip Stephens, was the Superintendent for Pauly Jail and was in charge of delivery logistics, rigging and handling, building the access platform, cell stacking and final setting of the cells. Phillip was on top of each phase of the installation. His scheduling and planning was complete and he hit all the projects scheduled dates for the cell installation. Phillip is very knowledgeable about the product and it was evident that when it came to installation of the cells he had “done it before”. Gilbane’s Safety plan is very strict and specific and not only did Phillip embrace and follow it but he took extra steps to make sure the stacking and moving of the cells was a safe and controlled operation. Phillip was very professional and was willing to work with all the project contractors, helping make the install seamless and enjoyable. I can highly recommend Phillip Stephens and Pauly Jail to any project. They were a pleasure to work with.
