BUILD June 2017

80 BUILD / June 2017 , Kulka’s key to success is the ability to constantly deliver projects on time and under budget. A large majority of the work the company gets is due to the referrals made on their behalf and repeat clients. The new technology implemented by Devin makes communication and customer satisfaction even greater, and will aid in the company’s continued success. The relationship’s Kulka has with their sub-contractors has been important to the success of their business as well. “The quote, “You are only as strong as your weakest link” holds true in all aspects of life,” Devin believes. “We understand and value this, which is why we work with some of the best subcontractors in the area. If it wasn’t for the entire Kulka organization and the sub- contractors that we use we would never have won the Leading Expert Award and we want to thank those people we do work with internally and externally,” he says. Regardless of whether Kulka is building up a modern building, corporate home office, a shopping malls, motion picture theater, residential apartment units, or adding to the development of an educational institution or community center; “quality” is predominant in all periods of its operations. For this commercial construction firm, there is no compromise on standards. “I think the biggest challenge we have faced these days is the fact that many clients are looking for the lowest possible number rather than taking into account quality. We value both cost and quality and have continued to effectively deliver quality projects at a low cost, time and time again. A challenge that many of our competitors face is keeping up with the rapidly evolving industry. We see that industry booms come in waves. For a few years, hotels may be the hot item to develop and the few years to follow may be pharmaceuticals. Our wide expertise in all aspects of commercial development and construction allow us to keep up with the booming markets of that time,” Devin tells us, emphasizing on his ability to forecast future trends in order to capitalize on the opportunities. Whether a project is to be built using the methods of Construction Management, General Contracting or Design- Build Construction, the name Kulka is synonymous with quality construction. For almost 40 years, Kulka has been responsible for the construction of close to 20 million square feet of commercial, institutional, industrial and multi-tenant residential facilities throughout the metropolitan New York area. In addition, Kulka Interiors has completed some of the area’s finest and most luxurious corporate spaces. Having been recently cited by Long Island Business News as Long Island’s top builder, based on square footage completed, Kulka Construction has provided numerous owners with optimum designed and constructed facilities at substantially reduced costs. Like his father, Devin has also excelled outside the business and is an active member of The Young Presidents Organization Next Generation. He is also a founder of the Nexus Pro Group-a group that was formed to help young professionals make connections with other likeminded business people. The group strives to connect with people that will help one another grow their careers while doing fun activities in a comfortable environment. Devin Kulka has turned out to be an excellent professional and an exemplary leader. Tactically maneuvering the company to success, implementing the use of modern technology and processes, while keeping his father’s legacy intact is a notable achievement on its own. We are sure to see a long list of accomplishments from Devin Kulka, and we can confidently say that this great Long Island Construction Firm, has a bright future ahead under his leadership.
