Stuart, Florida.  Mark MacDonald, President of Ocean Gate General Contractors, Inc. announced today the newest addition to his growing company: Amadou Dial has joined the Stuart-based company as a Project Manager.  Ocean Gate’s latest project awards are located in The City of Boynton Beach, The City of Riviera Beach, and the City of St. Petersburg.   

Amadou brings more than ten years of project management experience with a wide range of projects.  From pharmaceutical laboratories to parks, he has consistently brought projects in within budget and on schedule.  He has a very strong background in accounting and construction management that make him a great fit for our growing company.

Ocean Gate General Contractors, Inc. has continued to prosper in this down economy through its lean aggressive approach to pursuing opportunities.  "We are expanding our market, and investing in our staff’s education to ensure our company is ready when the market turns around. Amadou will be a major contributor to our success" 

In addition to pursuing opportunities outside of the Treasure Coast, Ocean Gate is building a new headquarters building in Stuart, Florida.  The company will build a 20,000 square foot building incorporating energy and resource saving features to ensure they reach the Platinum rating they seek.  The United States Green Building Council’s Platinum Rating is the most aggressive offered requiring more than 52 “leed points” addressing site planning, water and materials selection, and energy and design sustainability.  Why now?   He sees the downturn as a chance to regroup and educate his workers on green building techniques.  "Costs of construction are 20 percent less than they were two years ago," MacDonald said. "It's a good time to build."
