JE Dunn Construction
It's difficult to encapsulate a legacy of over 85 years. It may rest in the skyline of hometown Kansas City or in other communities across the country where JE Dunn cranes reach skyward.

One thing is certain: the JE Dunn legacy can be found in its spirit of excellence, of giving and growing into the 21st century, and its continued commitment to core values.

We strive to provide our clients with the maximum return on their investment in engineering services and develop long-term relationships with our clients based upon mutual trust and respect.
Sightlines
Founded in 2000, Sightlines was initially conceived as a facilities asset advisory firm. Although most campus leaders could articulate the position of their financial portfolios—the total value of investments, annual return, draw, unrealized gain, and portfolio diversity—they struggled to answer similar questions regarding their facilities portfolios even though the value of a campus' physical plant often exceeds that of its endowment. Sightlines' founding mission was to provide campus leadership with the ability to link facilities operating strategy and financial capacity by providing superior and independent facilities advisory services, thereby fulfilling the need to accurately and decisively measure, monitor and benchmark the physical asset performance of campuses.
