ABOUT | Continental Field Service
SECTORS
Federal and State Agencies
Continental has provided acquisition and relocation of many federal, state and local agencies. CFS has experience performing our services under all federal regulations as well as state and local rules, regulations, restrictions, ordinances, statutes and laws. CFS is especially strong in project management, scheduling, and control. CFS helped to pioneer the “turn-key” approach to right of way acquisition for transportation projects.
The key to our success in managing large projects is not only making certain that our team has expertise at following all applicable regulations but that they also truly comprehend the nature of our work. The CFS staff understands the stresses and strains of the process and work tirelessly to limit the disruptions and inconveniences that can occur. Because we understand, we go the extra mile to help residents and business be placed in a better position upon completion. We work to mitigate the stress and create new opportunities, all within the confines of the federal and state regulations.
