Dickinson, Director of Operations and Educational Technology October 4,2016 RE: Reference—Starr Construction To Whom It May Concern: As the person overseeing the construction projects for the Twin Falls School District,I welcome the opportunity to provide a letter of recommendation for Starr Construction. Starr is currently the General Contractor/Construction Manager for three projects in the Twin Falls School District totaling approximately$13 million. I can honestly say I have truly enjoyed working with Starr on our school projects. These projects included a complicated remodel of an aging high school as well as the construction of a new addition to an existing school. In addition, Starr completed a remodel on our administration office. From the very first day of these projects they have demonstrated a commitment to excellence. It is apparent that integrity and quality are values that permeate their organization.Working tirelessly to maintain schedules and budgets,their staff are dedicated to the ultimate success of the project and the fulfillment of our goals and objectives. For a large organization,I compliment Starr for personalizing projects and really taking the time to understand the needs of the district and community. I am impressed by their commitment to quality and ability to manage our projects within budget. Starr has worked collaboratively with both our team and the design team to facilitate the project development and construction process in an effective,positive and transparent manner. Their team of construction professionals are easy to work with and bring a high level of commitment and added value to the construction process. Starr is truly a team player and I would highly recommend them for your project(s). If you have any questions,please do not hesitate to contact me.

The City had the opportunity to work closely with 00 them on the large and complex revitalization of our Rupert Square and Fremont Avenue. It is with great enthusiasm that I write this letter of recommendation on their behalf. These projects consisted of master planning, grant application assistance, cost estimating, construction document preparation, bidding, and construction administration for the approximate $2,000,000 public investment in the Historic Rupert Square, surrounding streets, and adjacent Fremont Avenue next to the Historic Wilson Theater. Starr Corporation was chosen after a competitive bidding process for the majority of this renovation. We worked nearly continuously with The Starr Corporation, on these projects starting in 2013 until completion. Michael Arrington and Starr Corporation demonstrated impressive knowledge, commitment, and professionalism from the moment they started our projects. During the construction phase of each project, The Starr Corporation facilitated excellent communication between the contractor team, architects and us;they kept the project well organized. At all steps of the project,we had opportunities for input and the outcome of the project. The Starr Corporation listened and ensured the projects met our community needs. While working with Starr Corporation, I felt that we were working as a team toward a common goal. Their attention to detail and enthusiasm for the project ensured a smooth process throughout the multiple phases of all projects. I enjoy working with Star Corporation, and believe them to be very capable of executing a city revitalization project and public infrastructure project. I have no reservations in recommending them for future work. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.

(208)233-0462 N Dear Brad&Jess, a It has been a few months since the completion of the Department of Nursing, Simulation Labs OO project at BYU-Idaho and all seems to be running well. I want to express my personal appreciation for having been able to work with you both on the project and thank Starr Corporation for helping to make the project a success. One element that made a difference in the success of the project was your diligent efforts in seeking solutions to maintain the projects tight time line constraints. For instance,when the door frames would not have shipped in time to keep the schedule on track,you flew a guy to the manufacturers location in order to drive the door frames back in a rented truck to keep the project on schedule. Not only this,but you shined through in the little things as well, such as adjusting the location of a clock that had been properly installed per the drawings,but in my opinion,needed to be centered between the adjacent transom windows. Your willingness to adjust a small detail in order to meet an aesthetic desire is an action that caused Starr Corporation to step forward in my mind as a company that cares about their client's end goals and personal feelings of success. Another aspect of Starr Corporations work that I noted was your ability to adjust the work flow as needed to take care of the unplanned for items that inevitably arise during construction. Two such items that stand out to me were the unknown dryer vent from the floor below that needed to be rerouted to fall within the new wall layout on its way to the roof and the electrical junction box with bare live wires that was hidden beneath the carpeting. Taking care of the unanticipated in a timely manner in order to keep the project moving forward, is an invaluable attribute. My final thought is that I appreciate your willingness to have adjusted the already completed headwalls to meet the revised needs of the faculty and students. It must have been disheartening to tear open the newly finished walls to make the adjustments,nonetheless,the walls were opened and rebuilt to new specifications, and not only finished to look good but more importantly to meet the needs of the faculty and students that will use the simulation lab for years to come.
