OUR
HISTORY
Toll International was founded in 2005 at a time when public infrastructure, mass transit, urban development and construction project costs were rising uncontrollably while capital programs continued to irreparably fall behind schedule and overrun their budgets.
We took the lead on assisting public agencies and major private organizations with large scale capital programs wrap their arms around their improvement projects and developed an innovative approach of utilizing science and information technologies towards the orderly planning, development, engineering, architectural design and construction of the built environment while keeping a strong focus on managing budgets and schedules. Our brand promise is simple: "Complete every single one of our projects within the Quality Parameters defined jointly with our partners, complete the Scope of Work 1 Day Early and $1 below budget."
This idea has inspired us for almost a decade and has helped us develop a highly qualified and nimble team — now with over 20,000 LinkedIn Followers and several professionals throughout the United States who currently work on local and regional area projects full time throughout all our lines of business.
Most of our projects involve New York State and The City of New York. Therefore, public funding is most of the time part of the equation. For this purpose, we have become experts at complying with municipal, state and federal regulations regarding this sensitive area of expertise. Our thoroughness in keeping our clients informed and alerting them on developing trends are only second to our strong work ethics and unparalleled reputation in the industry.
​
Toll International is a professional services firm committed to public, utilities and major private organizations projects. Since our beginning, we approach these projects with the intent of not just planning, designing and managing them, but also developing long term relationships at all levels in the community. Our compliance efforts are essential to maintain discipline, responsiveness and quality in a heavily regulated environment. For this reason, it is at the center of our mission to deliver innovative services that add value to our clients while addressing their complex and sizable needs in a competitive manner. Throughout the planning process, Toll International fosters strong and open communication with our public, utilities and major private organizations as well as third party consultants.
​
Documentation of the decision-making process and the input of all project members is crucial to making and confirming the best-informed decisions, particularly in the early planning phases. To this end, Toll International's Principal commits itself early on at the project kickoff meeting and remains with the project through completion and close-out while enabling team members to make decisions at the local level for faster response and appropriateness of impact.
​
One of our core-differentiators is that we conduct investigation and research activities not only at the project start but we also conduct rigorous forensic studies at project completion because it helps us understand end-to-end project planning commonly known as 'cradle-to-grave' project guidance. We utilize best practices and techniques ranging from survey forms and personnel interviews to historical evaluations, computer analysis and big-data research to ascertain the optimal approach to modifications of some of our client's most cherished landmark facilities in the Greater New York region.
Our project plans are developed with a deep understanding of our client's design standards, budgets, schedules, asset management, operational policies, and field maintenance constraints. At every step in the process, we apply the independent judgment of our professional staff who communicates openly with our client senior managers telling the story with the experienced trustworthy advice has guided major projects successfully through completion. Our extensive work with government agencies, public utilities and major private capital programs has familiarized us with many unique operational, policy, schedule, and mission-critical constraints.
​
Toll International works to ensure that the project’s goals are imparted clearly and decisively through comprehensive planning, design and contract documents that maximize our client's return on investment. We are keenly aware of the challenges and limitations of public and major private organizations procurement. To this end we maintain a comprehensive technical library with specifications that help to make this process run smoothly and with a higher likelihood of success.
Toll International employs licensed professionals who are certified for the type of work that they support and become highly involved in our partners success. They begin by identifying early opportunities to develop momentum and complete the cycle with value generating deliverables at project close-out to ensure that the planner's intent, which represents the client vision and expectations, not only achieves the final results but benefits from any learnings along the way.
​
Toll International is quality driven rather than volume driven. We practice results-oriented management rather than revenue-oriented outputs. We recognize that our reputation is our most valuable asset and ethics are paramount. We live of both of these beliefs through our people actions and the type of clients we chose to work with.
We prioritize sustainability above all else. Hence, we invest in environmentally sound solutions while maintaining quality driven results. We take pride in our high regard to health and safety and welcome working in win-win initiatives where we support the environment we live and the health of our planet.
Toll International does not back away from resolving business challenges because our responsiveness guides the team to act quickly and efficiently to pressing situations. Our operations are ready to respond to forces we cannot control while maintaining calm and rationality. Our team is resilient, and so are our leaders. It is in our DNA to deliver on our promises and work for our partners until the achieving the results that our clients signed up for and this peace of mind can only be measured in referrals from satisfied clients.
