- Rip Curl’s experience with Kim and her entire Adams CM team exceeded all expectations. In a difficult environment that included an impossible deadline, a global pandemic and changing scopes of work, Kim’s direct, no-nonsense approach to the project allowed our team to complete our corporate headquarters move on time and under budget. I fully recommend Kim AdamsDIEM CULLEYRETAIL & OPERATIONS | RIP CURL

Her best in class Construction Management skills helped us to succeed and included an in-depth knowledge of the construction industry, effective consistent leadership and excellent timely decision-making. She was always extremely professional and an astute transparent partner whom constantly kept our best interests at heart. She was able to problem solve solutions under pressure and outside of the box to keep our projects on time, within budget, and with expected quality.

- “Kim did a fantastic job overseeing all aspects of our tenant improvements. As the Finance Director assigned to build out an existing 31,000 square foot facility, I had very little expertise in this area. Kim was terrific in coming along side me and our internal team to ensure that the job was completed on time and within budget. What I especially appreciated was that she helped resolve the large and small issues and made sure those few details at the end of the project were taken care of. She’s very professional but also fun to work with. Thanks Kim!”MICHAEL A. PIERCECPA SENIOR DIRECTOR OF FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION ST. JUDE MEDICAL, INC
- “Kim provided excellent project management skills in completing a very complex $1,750,000 build out for Vision Solutions at 15300 Barranca inIrvine, She was instrumental in the space planning phase which included the involvement of many engineers as a full blown data center was being constructed within Vision Solutions’ premises, the bid process, general contractor selection and managing the build out which included several change orders. She brought the project significantly under budget and as a result Vision Solutions was able to apply the savings towards move, cabling and furniture acquisition costs. Not only was Kim on top of every aspect of the project, she kept everyone informed in a very timely manner and managed to maintain a very harmonious environment amongst all the people involved through the various challenges that occurred during the project.”JACK E. MCNUTT EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT TRANSACTION SERVICES GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY
- “‘In a crowded field of Construction and Project Managers, Kim is uniquely qualified to manage projects on behalf of her clients; armed with a bachelors degree in Construction Management, strong hands-on project experience at both architectural design firms and construction companies, she has been effectively managing ground up, renovation and tenant improvement projects for corporate and developer clients for over 13 years. Kim is truly her clients’ advocate, proactively solving project issues before they can become costly problems. Kim earns the respect of all who have the good fortune to work with her; clients, occupiers, landlords, owners, contractors, architects and vendors. She is a straight-shooter, and tells it like it is. I like to say that Kim is a bulldog, with a smile!!! Kim is fair, thoughtful, detail oriented, and solutions-driven. She is very knowledgeable and hands-on with her projects, which her clients appreciate. Her reputation precedes her, and I’m sure the majority of her work is by client referral. I recommend Kim Adams, without reservation, to my clients as an excellent Project and Construction Manager.”KAREN L. THOMAS CID, LEED BD & C PRINCIPAL
Where we saw the greatest value from the team was in their ability to identify items for value engineering, critical task tracking and most importantly the move management from one HQ to another. The attention to detail they provided on the move management allowed me to focus on keeping my customers happy during a time of transition vs sweating all the small details that are a necessity for a major move like this. I could not have been more happy with Kim and her team and would recommend them to anyone interested in corporate fit outs or large office moves.
