Baldwin joins South Coast Improvement Company as a senior project manager

South Coast Improvement Company (SCI), a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, has hired Dave Baldwin as a senior project manager. Baldwin comes to the company after serving as director of construction at the Nova Hotel Renovation and Construction Company of Clearwater, Fla. A construction veteran with more than 25 years' experience, Baldwin will work out of SCI's corporate headquarters as senior project manager on several current South Coast Improvement projects, while enhancing the company's presence in the areas of retail, restaurant and hospitality construction. "Dave has managed some complex construction projects over the course of his career, including some for us when he worked with us on a contract basis a few years ago," said Tom Quinlan, president of SCI. "I've always known Dave as a guy unafraid to roll up his sleeves and get the job at hand done. We're delighted to bring him north to be a leader on our team." Baldwin has worked as a contractor for his own firm and several others throughout the country during the course of his career. In his previous time with SCI, he managed multiple projects in the New England and Mid Atlantic regions. "I loved my time with SCI and am happy to be back," said Baldwin. "The company has grown quite a bit since I last worked with them. I'm looking forward to being part of SCI's future growth up and down the East Coast." Baldwin attended Johnston State College in Vermont and St. Petersberg College in Clearwater, Florida. He holds a State of Florida, Class A General Contractor's license, is a licensed Storm Water Management Inspector and has completed OSHA 10. South Coast Improvement offers a range of design, construction and management services across a variety of sectors—interiors as well as exteriors—including office buildings, health care facilities, educational institutions, commercial properties, assisted living facilities, and residential communities. South Coast Improvement's services include: preconstruction analysis; construction management; general contracting; design/build services; capital improvement; building envelope improvements; and interior renovations.
