E QUALS E XCELLENCE …..
T HE C OMPANY Teton Heritage Builders was established in 1996 as an innovative full service home builder in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Since then we established our- selves in a niche market through a creative blend of sophisticated con- struction management, legacy quality craftsmanship and aggressive scheduling. In 2003 we opened an office in Big Sky expanding our services to include Southwest Montana.
THB consistently provides you with the highest quality construction in the industry. To be the best builder ,we also maintain the value of our clients’ homes by controlling costs. We do this by combining the over 200 years of construction experience in the working owners with the latest techniques in estimating, scheduling, budget- ing and project management. This blend of experience and technology allows our team to focus on our cli- ents and make a complicated process as easy, fun and cost effective as possible.
Our expertise allows us to offer both open book cost plus and guaranteed pricing . We take time to listen and understand our clients building objectives, budget and schedule. And be- cause we clearly understand the objectives we are confident in offering a no-surprises contract . We expect our clients to invest their funds in the distinction and beauty of their home, not a builder’s inefficiencies, and we are willing to prove it through the guarantee . T HE M ISSION Teton Heritage Builders is a premier construction company in the Western United States providing our clients buildings of ex- ceptional quality, character and value. THB utilizes technically sophisticated systems, unique human resources, high levels of organization and strong teamwork. We create a safe environ- ment that fosters mutually beneficial relationships for all stake- holders based on respect, honesty and integrity. G IVING B ACK At THB we believe in supporting our local communities. In 2008 we built a Habitat for Humanity home for a deserving Jackson Hole family. We spearheaded the “Builder’s Blitz” by manag- ing local volunteers and subcontractors in a one week start-to- finish build. We continue to support Habitat for Humanity’s vari- ous projects, like the Hall Street Project, through construction consulting, free estimating services and on site volunteer- ing. In Bozeman, we give back annually through the Rotary “Fix it Up Festival” each Fall.

A great home design is functional spaces, elegant forms, and cost-effective constructability. THB pro- vides services during the design phase to ensure that your quality, budget and schedule objectives are achieved. Firstly, we participate in a conversa- tion with you and the architect about quality and the material palette ( Design Intent Consen- sus ). Secondly, we ensure that the design tracks with the owner’s budget through Historical Cost Estimation and Value Engineering . And thirdly, we perform tasks to ensure that the home can be de- livered as quickly as possible ( Whole Project Sched- uling and Municipal Planning ). By continuing this strategic communication as the design progresses toward completion, we achieve clarity of mission and trust between the three part- ners. All elements we feel are critical to the suc- cess of a project of the highest quality. H ISTORICAL C OST E STIMATION & V ALUE E NGINGEERING Construction pricing in this region is unique and the market is constantly fluctuating. THB prepares a preliminary budget immediately upon receipt of all available information. Over the last 22 years we have developed a 40 page spreadsheet of histori- cal data tempered by the latest pricing from our subcontractors to provide you a realistic cost estimate even from schematic drawings. As the design progresses, we update our estimate to pin- point the final cost of the project. Using this data, W HOLE P ROJECT S CHEDULING Teton Heritage Builders develops and maintains a planning and progress schedule to coordinate and integrate your scheduling and the architect’s design efforts with material delivery and project sequencing. Our system is specifically designed to account for this region’s short building season for exterior construction. We identify mate- rials that have an impact on the schedule -up front- and we determine the key ordering dates accordingly. This approach allows us to meet your scheduling desires without material substitutions that could degrade the architectural design.
D ESIGN I NTENT C ONSENSUS An ongoing three-way communication involving you, the architect and THB as the builder, is ideally launched during the conceptual phase of the design. Here the creative design intent of the architect, your desires and budget, as well as THB’s understanding are thoroughly discussed to assure a seamless approach.
you can direct the architect’s efforts by adding to the design or refining it to meet your budgetary goals. If the program and budget objectives are starting to diverge we have developed user friendly value engi- neering spreadsheets that allow you to adjust the program based what you want to spend. In short, you stay in control of the budget.

M UNICIPAL P LANNING Teton Heritage Builders keeps abreast of the fast changing county and state building regulations and the personnel in charge of them. By working closely with planners and regulators from the beginning, we identify design elements that may become obsta- cles to quick approval of the project. B IDDING D OCUMENTATION Teton Heritage Builders prepares detailed contract bid packages to address areas of conflict and possi- ble overlap in subcontractor scopes. This practice safeguards against double payment for services. We also use our knowledge of local subcontractor capabilities to ensure that only those of proven qual- ity are allowed to bid on the project. We can expe- dite the schedule by awarding certain subcontracts, such as excavation, foundations, and log packages prior to design completion. Finally, we make recom- mendations regarding subcontract general condi- tions that limit owner liability, promote safety, en- courage equal employment opportunities, and ad- vance “environmentally friendly” processes.

The key to delivering legacy quality craftsman- ship in a no-surprises fashion is excellent listening and communication. Our weekly progress meet- ings and website communication portal , ProCore, lay at the center of this process. Through our steadfast use of these components we institution- alize listening and understanding. We effectively listen, repeat back to you, and memorialize the final finish selection decisions in a timely fashion so that the home is delivered with your quality ex- pectations in a timely and valuable man- ner. Each weekly meeting will address the guar- anteed budget, final finish selections, the sched- ule, and any program changes. ProCore serves as a way to publicly document the decisions and as a central cache of all the project information. C OST P LUS OR G UARANTEED P RICING = P EACE OF M IND We believe in our budgets and with over 20 years of historical cost data we know what Rocky Mountain construction costs. Consequently, we can provide detailed target estimating to come up with extremely accurate Cost Plus pricing or will put our purse at risk by giving Guaranteed Maximum Pricing (GMP) to you. You can rest as- sured that we will deliver on our budgets. In short, THB provides Peace of Mind . L EGACY Q UALITY C RAFTSMANSHIP Everyone can feel a truly well crafted home. The way you achieve legacy quality is by having the personnel on staff that have been imbued with a spirit to achieve excellence. There are 8 active THB owners in Wyoming and Montana and the THB team has over 200 years combined experi- ence in these working owners . We know how to build quality homes and we are passionate about what we do. Additionally, since our inception in 1996, THB personnel have always installed the fin- ish trim in our homes and many times we craft the logs, timbers, framing, siding and cabinetry. This pursuit of excellence starts at THB and spreads through our trade partners such that we deliver “magazine quality homes.”

E ASY AND C LEAR C OMMUNICATION Great communication requires great listening skills and great systems to keep information clear and orga- nized. THB stresses regular communication and in our weekly progress meetings. We deliver the infor- mation with written notes to ensure a clear understanding of decisions. In 2008, we added our website communication portal , Pro-Core, that creates a central cache of all the project information and enables easy transfer of drawings, requests for information, schedules, photographs, budgets, and punch lists. The difference between a tolerable and excellent construction experience is clear, friendly, and timely project communication. We recognize this and we excel at it. P RECISE P ROGRESS S CHEDULES Throughout construction we maintain our critical path schedule prepared during the design phase. We carefully track our crew and subcontractor progress and material deliveries to ensure that no unnecessary delays occur during construction. Also, if unforeseen conditions occur which will impact the completion date, we look for alternatives to get the project back on track. Our goal is to deliver your dream home when you want it. C HANGE O RDER C ONTROL AND V ALUE R ETENTION Nobody likes change orders – the owner, the architect nor the builder - because they are inherently ex- pensive. The best way to retain value is to avoid them by getting THB involved early in the process so that we have a clear understanding of the owner’s and architect’s design intent and define the work accord- ingly. Barring that, or if you change your mind, then we can buy the new program with a thorough under- standing of historical costs so that even a change order can be purchased at a reasonable incremental cost. The result is that THB built homes have value the day they are completed. Additionally, if you are using third party financing, we provide cash flow projections and draw requests for those teammates as well.

M OVING I N The move-in date is a special day - the culmina- tion of a lot of planning and hard work. But it is really just another step in the lifelong relationship THB has with you. Prior to move-in we will have the home professionally cleaned and we will prepare for you the best operation and mainte- nance (O&M) manuals in the Northern Rock- ies. Some of our clients require help moving in and THB has made our team available to as- sist. Shortly after the move-in we will take you through the operation of the home: mechanical systems, electrical systems, home automation, hot tubs, pools, etc. This includes running you and your property management team through the O&M manuals as well as any home mainte- nance videos we may have created. As we say, we believe this is another step in building a life- long relationship. C HECK - UP AND W ARRANTY Regardless of how careful the movers are, there may be a ding or two that occur during move- in. We expect it and we take care of it during our “one month check - up”. And we will be back at the year anniversary to attend to any list you might have, check your systems, and touch- up anything that might require it. A DDITIONAL S ERVICES Teton Heritage Builders can provide many other services to help make the move-in process worry free. Services include coordination with moving and transportation companies and with other specialty suppliers such as furniture, lighting and window covering suppliers. Ultimately, we are happy to assist in any other way that will en- hance the move-in process.

KEY PERSONNEL
The key to legacy quality is great communication, experience, and people that care. Following you will find brief histories of our key personnel that describe our dedication to the craft, our experience, our acco- lades, and our love of the Rocky Mountains. You will also note that most of our key personnel are compa- ny owners . This is true because the core of Teton Heritage Builders has a proven track record of a dedica- tion to excellence. And if a teammate is dedicated to excellence, then why wouldn’t the THB owners want that person as a partner. The benefit for our clients is that you can rest assured that when a THB own- er makes a promise, our team is going to keep it. Please read about this great team that we have assem- bled over the year. Peter C. Lee - Head of Office – MT, President, Project Manager, Owner Peter co-founded THB in 1996 after being part of the development team of Indian Springs Ranch, a Jackson Hole luxury ranch community. Over the years, Peter has managed pro- jects that have been featured in Ralph Kylloe’s Rustic Artistry of the Home and Cabins & Camps . Either he or his projects have also been featured in magazines including Cow- boys & Indians, Custom Wood Homes and Teton Home magazine. In addition, to his pas- sion for crafting beautiful buildings, Peter works hard to lower America's carbon foot print. He is a Structural Engineering graduate from Princeton University (Summa Cum Laude) and has a Masters in Business Administration from Harvard University. In 2003, Pe- ter moved to Bozeman to expand THB’s operations to Big Sky and Southwest Mon- tana. He and his wife, Tanya, have "come home" to Montana where they can ski, fly fish, ride horses and enjoy the Rocky Mountains with their 4 children. Peter also gives back to his community through Bozeman Sunrise Rotary and serving on the Green Hills Ranch home owner association board. Gregory A. O’Gwin - Head of Office – WY, Superintendent, Owner Greg came to THB in 1999 with over 20 years experience in the construction industry. He has been a superintendent for 22 years and uses his strong background in large scale commercial projects with large staffs to aggressively manage schedules and budgets . Greg received the 1999 Excellence in Construction award from the Associated Builders and Contractors for his work at the Mother and Infant Care Center at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. His experience in supervising all construction trades and his calm, efficient management style enable him to be a construction leader of great effectiveness.

Weaver - Superintendent – WY, Owner Russ has been in construction since 1977 and has lived in the Jackson hole area since 1980. His 20 years as a superintendent and experience as an independent general con- tractor in Idaho taught him to manage subcontractors such that the final product is to the high quality standards expected by our clients. Russ consistently creates positive and long lasting relationships with his clients by providing clear communication throughout the entire building process. Russ was highlighted in Architectural Digest in June 1997 for his intricate log detail,. An avid fisherman, Russ has fished the waters from Alaska to Florida, but prefers the calm mountain rivers of his native Idaho.

Mark S. Dalby - Project Manager – WY, Owner Mark Dalby’s over 16 years of general contracting experience has led him through all phases of the construction process including estimating, field engineering, site supervision and pro- ject management. His resume began with a Civil Engineering Degree from Penn State and continued with his employment by one of the largest commercial general contractors in the country. His ability to gain management and supervisory positions of increasing responsibility led him to open his own design- build timber framing company. Mark’s projects have been featured in Homestead magazine, and Log Homes Illustrated. Running the high mountain trails and rafting the Snake River are two of many activities in the summer for Mr. Dalby. Scott E. Walden - Superintendent – MT, Owner Scott returned to his native Montana with his family in 2006. While he was gone he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration and Finance from Central Washington University. After graduating he spent 18 years building in the Pacific Northwest and Alas- ka. Scott had the pleasure of working in the family business for 13 of those years and five working for a production builder on the West Coast. Scott has experience managing all phases of construction from initial client meetings through after move-in customer ser- vice. During his tenure at THB, Scott project managed the last 2 phases of Spanish Peaks cabin construction, he oversaw the construction of a home in Spanish Peaks that has been published in Big Sky Journal , Dream Home Showcase , and garnered “Best of 2012” in Timber Home Living . He built a home that would have qualified for LEED Silver designation had the owner wanted the certification. If Scott isn’t working, or enjoying the Montana outdoors he is cheering on his daughters and wife while they play and coach volleyball and soccer. Matt Lennon - Superintendent – MT, Owner Construction has always been a part of Matt’s life starting with building custom homes with his grandpa in Wyoming, Montana, and Nevada. After finishing a degree in construction management he made the move from Wyoming to Montana. He has found his passion in building beautiful, and complex custom homes. He has finished large projects in Big Sky and Jackson Hole, and takes pride in the custom details. Matt understands it is a team effort to bring the visions of the owner, architect, and builder together to create lasting legacy’s that will serve as a place for generations of memories. When not at work Matt loves to spend his time outside playing with his family. He will often be found in the mountains with his lovely wife and four spirited children in tow.

Simone Bayens — Selections Coordinator, Assistant Project Manager Simone joined the THB Montana team as the Selections Coordinator and Assistant Project Manager on February 1st, 2016, coincidentally the 20th anniversary of the company, after many years working as a licensed architect in Atlanta GA, and most recently, in Bozeman, MT. She spent the first 7 years in business working on hotel and spa projects for Cooper Car- ry Architects in Atlanta before eventually starting her own company, Archetype Architec- ture, where she has focused on high-end residential projects for the past 15 years. Simone has 3 beautiful and crazy daughters, and when she has the free time, you can find her tro- phy fishing, as much as possible, on the gorgeous lakes and rivers of Montana.
Mallory Fife – Montana Office Manager Mallory relocated to Big Sky from Idaho in 2014. She joined the THB team in 2019 and brings an array of knowledge and experience to the table. She has a Bachelors in Art, Masters in Business Administration, and is also a Certified Personal Trainer. Mallory has 10 plus years working directly in finance, customer services, and business administration. She is a dog mom of a precious little Yorkie and in her free time, if she has any, you can find you at the gym or working in the modeling/acting entertainment industry.
