Building an Architecture and Engineering Firm

Hans Bentzon is the visionary leader of Forefront Architecture+ Engineering, LLC. In a career spanning more than two decades, Hans has lent his expertise to the construction industry in a wide variety of roles, including as a steel fabricator, framing contractor, engineer and technology leader. The common thread that connects Hans’ many roles is his unique ability to innovate and move his clients and industry forward, while continuing to deliver products and services that are needed today.

As the CEO of Forefront Architecture+ Engineering, LLC, Hans has combined all of his experience and knowledge to build a team that is capable of delivering full-service design, engineering and Building Information Modeling {BIM) services and solutions to large scale production homebuilders. In addition to its unique set of capabilities, what truly sets Forefront Architecture+ Engineering, LLC apart from their competitors is how they approach each client engagement by first understanding that client’s specific challenges before responding with their recommended solution. This approach has resulted in clients who have realized significant improvements in the sale to start cycle, reduced the time required for permitting and who have achieved significant cost savings and construction cycle time improvements. In many cases, the clients thought that they were simply purchasing engineering or architectural services, but Hans’ focus on understanding and addressing the underlying problems faced by his clients resulted in this outstanding value.

In addition to his core business, Hans is an avid follower of emerging trends in design, technology and construction and has consistently invested in his own personal knowledge and skill base as well as his company’s. As a result of this drive, he and Forefront Architecture+ Engineering, LLC are at the leading edge of providing various certified Green, Environmentally Friendly and Energy Efficient solutions, services and results for their clients. He is also a pioneer in evaluating and proving the potential of various new and innovative housing and general building production system and technologies. As the construction labor market in the United States remains constrained, many of these solutions will begin to find their way into the industry and Forefront Architecture and Engineering, LLC will be ready to help its clients in evaluating options, selecting and implementing with better certainty, speed and quality.
