OUR PROCESS
A smarter path from concrete challenge to completed solution.
01
Assessment of your specific needs.
Before recommending a product, system, specification, or installation method, CIA begins with a focused consulting process to understand what you are trying to achieve.
We look at the project requirements, existing conditions, performance expectations, design intent, maintenance needs, budget realities, and long-term goals. This allows us to identify the real priorities and avoid generic solutions that may not fit the job.
02
Defintion of a clear strategic direction
After the consulting phase, CIA creates a customized plan based on the specific needs of the project. This may include a recommended system, written procedure, material strategy, mix design direction, quality-control checklist, or complete CIA Built Specification.
The goal is to turn technical insight into a clear roadmap that can actually be followed in the field.
03
Structured execution that drives results
For select projects, CIA moves from consulting and planning into in-house execution. This means the same team that helped define the strategy and specification can also carry out the work.
This creates better alignment between what was planned and what gets built. It also reduces the disconnect that often happens when a project moves from consultant to contractor to installer.
Who WE work with
Supporting companies as they prepare for their next stage
Owners
Owners need concrete systems that perform, last, and make sense financially. CIA helps property owners, developers, facility managers, and asset managers understand their options, reduce risk, and make better long-term decisions for their floors, surfaces, and concrete systems.
We help owners avoid vague specifications, poor material choices, premature failures, and maintenance problems that cost money long after the project is complete.
Architects
Architects and specifiers need concrete systems that are clear, practical, and aligned with the finished vision. CIA helps design teams bridge the gap between what is drawn, what is specified, and what actually happens in the field.
We support better specifications, smarter material selection, realistic finish expectations, and technical coordination between owners, contractors, manufacturers, and installers.
Contractors
Contractors need clear requirements, reliable systems, and fewer surprises in the field. CIA works with general contractors, concrete contractors, specialty flooring contractors, and installation teams to improve planning, troubleshoot problems, and support better project execution.
We understand the gap between paper specifications and jobsite reality. Our role is to help contractors identify risks early, improve procedures, coordinate materials, and deliver a better finished result.
CIA works with the teams who make, design, manage, and execute concrete projects. Whether the goal is to solve a problem, improve a specification, validate a system, or deliver a high-performance installation, we help clients make better decisions before small issues become expensive failures.

Frequently asked questions
When should we bring CIA into a project?
The earlier, the better. CIA is most valuable before decisions are locked in — during planning, design, specification, budgeting, mix design review, or contractor selection. We can also help after problems show up, but early involvement usually creates better options and fewer expensive surprises.
Does CIA only consult, or do you also perform the work?
Both. Consulting is our primary focus, but we also provide customized contracting for select projects. When it makes sense, CIA can move from technical consulting into a personalized plan and in-house execution for placement, finishing, polished concrete, coatings, terrazzo, repairs, or other specialty systems.
What types of problems can CIA help solve?
CIA helps with concrete issues like poor floor performance, unclear specifications, polishing problems, coating failures, surface defects, mix design concerns, maintenance challenges, material compatibility, and systems that are not performing as expected. We look at the full picture instead of treating the symptom alone.
Can CIA help architects and specifiers write better concrete specifications?
Yes. CIA helps architects, designers, engineers, and specifiers create clearer, more practical concrete specifications. This may include polished concrete, coatings, terrazzo, mix design requirements, surface preparation, curing, protection, mockups, quality-control standards, and maintenance expectations.
Do you work with contractors?
Yes. CIA works with general contractors, concrete contractors, flooring contractors, and specialty installers to improve planning, review specifications, develop procedures, troubleshoot field issues, coordinate materials, and support better execution. Our goal is to help contractors reduce risk and deliver better results.
Does CIA work with new or eco-conscious concrete materials?
Yes. CIA works on R&D and material development for better concrete systems, including eco-conscious materials, SCMs, admixtures, densifiers, coatings, terrazzo systems, and other emerging technologies. We help evaluate whether new materials can move from concept to field-ready systems.
