Sonic Automotive

Project summary :

Sonic Automotive’s unique business model of focusing on the customer experience first is a perfect match for Parkway Construction, where every client is a partner. While Sonic Automotive presents unique design requirements, the process is the same. Being familiar with the locations being considered around the country is a huge timesaver. And the communication protocols between clients, designers, project managers, and trade partners or subcontractors are clear. This makes for a smooth process. “We make sure our clients not only understand the issues but also what we are doing to remedy it,” says Ethan Mabe, VP, construction. “Our superintendents are phenomenal at working with the trades, communicating the level of quality we expect and where we need to be on the schedule.”

Parkway legacy partners like Sonic Automotive have the benefit of multiplying solutions. Each issue solved is applied to the next challenge. At the next location. The consistency in process and quality has ensured that every build for Sonic Automotive has been completed on time and on budget.
