Cristian Roa

Mustafa is a strong and effective Project Manager. He is particularly good at planning complex construction tasks and for his capacity to achieve consensus, mediate and deliver predefined goals despite a diversity of personalities, precarious situations, and changing priorities. It is my pleasure to recommend Mustafa Usalan for employment.

Paul Oshiro, PE

I have worked extensively with Mustafa on multiple design/build projects with accelerated construction schedules and Mustafa's strong engineering and construction experience was a key factor in bringing in the projects ahead of schedule and at budget.
