Strategic Partnerships
We partner with engineers, specialty consultants, constructon managers, and contractors to ensure our clients are fully served regardless of the location. Partnerships may last beyond the needs of a single client or project. Those relationships are the result of complimentary services that benefit the client and the mutual respect and support forged from the work done on past projects. These relationships exist to ensure continual support to past clients and to provide unique services for future clients.
Plunkett Raysich Architects (PRA) is a full-service architectural and interior design firm employing over 80 professionals based in Wisconsin. Established in 1935, the firm now has offices in Milwaukee, Madison, and Sarasota, Florida. PRA is a regional leader in education design at all levels, having completed more than 3,000 educational facilities. The firm has an Accredited Learning Environment Planner (ALEP) on staff and has done over 50 school district master plans in the last 10 years.
Align and PRA became strategic partners in 2009 and have since been providing complimentary services to clients in Iowa. A study and multi-phased improvements to the Dunkerton Community School District is one example. Jim Stanton who was the district’s superintendent for 12 years during the latest improvements commented:
"As a team, Align Architecture & Planning and PRA have played important rolls in preparing the Dunkerton Community School District for the future. Starting with an initial assessment in 2009, these firms have worked closely together to oversee four phases of expansion and renovation. Completed in April 2020, the latest phase came in well under budget. The architectural team provided a sequence of projects that was tailored to our needs and our means."
This team is continuing to collaborate as it begins facility assessment for two more nearby schools: Gladbrook-Reinbeck Community School District and North Tama Community School District.
