Mr. Kirt Gilliland

In 1995, after spending more than 30 years in San Diego watching construction projects fall behind schedule time after time, Kirt Gilliland came to Craig Irving and Jason Hughes with an idea.
"I approached them and said, hey, too many of your clients' projects that I'm working on aren't set up to be successful, and as a general contractor now I'm having to deal with that," Gilliland said. "So, why don't I join you and create Irving Hughes (construction management) and help you negotiate tenant improvement dollars and construction schedules into the lease so that we can be successful when the deal is signed and not try to play damage control afterwards."
