ISPE

Mr. Downs offers more than 15 years of professional experience in managing and supervising construction projects in the pharmaceutical industry. He has extensive experience in project management for full service design, procurement, and construction management projects from concept through detailed design to completion of construction.

The key to success in full service project delivery is listening and understanding a client's goals, needs, and expectations. "It is not about us… it is about the client. If something is important to our client… it becomes equally important to us." At Genesis, we believe it is important to provide our clients with the best possible service. We listen carefully to our clients and we are persistent in meeting their needs. We figure out how to make it work and get the job done.

On Teamwork

When Genesis is involved with a project, we strive to create a team environment with the client, each design discipline, vendors, sub-contractors, and other consultants. "I believe in a team oriented approach to create a high level of quality for both design and construction projects. It is the key reason Genesis has such a high success rate with repeat clients."

At Career Day, Scott visited with both an architect and an engineer, and the die was cast toward his career in engineering. If not for that, Scott's career might have taken a different path and he would have settled for being a tennis instructor or a fishing boat captain.
