PAX Services Group utilizes cooperative purchasing contracts to expedite construction for Charles County Detention Center.

Overview

Charles County faced a failing roof system on its county jail and annex buildings. Budget constraints and delays associated with the traditional design-bid-build approach requiring a partner capable of delivering both technical solutions and creative procurement strategies was essential to the project’s success. By utilizing cooperative purchasing contracts, our team was able to streamline the procurement process, facilitate design and start the reroof of both facilities in a timely and cost-effective manner, well ahead of what would typically be achieved with traditional procurement methods.

Charles County Detention Center is a 24/7 high-security facility, requiring all work to be coordinated from the roof. Additionally, strict security protocols required thorough searches of all materials and team members upon entry and exit. Our team maintained close communication with on-site personnel to ensure full compliance with all protocols and effectively avoided any safety risks or security breaches. PAX Services Group demonstrated exceptional coordination of manpower, materials, and equipment entirely from the roof — completing the project ahead of schedule and within budget.
