How Encore Orchestrated Six Moves for Colorado’s Historic Capitol
“If I received a call asking what I think of them, I would say they are really very good at what they do.”

Budget clarity before day one
Before a single desk was moved, the team needed a clear picture of what it would take to support multiple phased relocations across the Capitol complex.
Encore stepped in early with target pricing and realistic baselines, helping leadership understand the full scale of the effort and plan with confidence. That upfront clarity set the tone for a project built on trust and transparency from the start.
“Encore helped us from a budgeting standpoint, trying to understand the magnitude of how much we would have had to spend for the multiple moves.”
Flexible scheduling within a live construction environment
With renovation work underway, move dates were anything but fixed. Inspections, access approvals, and construction milestones all influenced when teams could transition from one space to the next.
Encore stayed nimble, adjusting plans in real time and keeping every phase moving forward, even when timelines shifted at the last minute.
“They were very flexible and understanding.”
Professional execution in one of Colorado’s most important spaces
Working inside the State Capitol complex comes with heightened expectations. Historic finishes required careful protection, security protocols had to be followed precisely, and daily activity continued all around the work.
Encore’s crews brought a steady, professional presence to the site, navigating the complexity with care and confidence.
“They were very professional.”
A seamless experience across the board
From legislative staff to building stakeholders, the project touched a wide range of teams, each with their own priorities and pressures.
Encore focused on clear communication, respectful interactions, and thoughtful on-site support, creating a smooth experience during every transition. The result was a process that felt organized, calm, and surprisingly easy for those involved.
“The folks in the Capitol have diverse needs and expectations, but they were all very happy with everybody who was on site.”
Stepping up as the scope evolved
As the work unfolded, new needs surfaced. Historic furniture required special handling, additional coordination was needed, and extra asks emerged along the way.
Encore leaned in, adapting quickly and taking on more without hesitation, ensuring progress never stalled. Their willingness to go above and beyond kept the project moving at full pace.
“Once they got on site, they were probably asked to do a little extra that they did not anticipate, but they did it without a flinch and without complaints.”
Results delivered within budget, and on track
Despite the complexity of six phased moves and an evolving scope, Encore completed the work while staying aligned with budget expectations.
Strong planning, responsive execution, and steady communication helped keep the project grounded and predictable. In a high-stakes environment, that reliability made all the difference.
“They were able to do all the work we needed them to do within the budget.”
