Our Expertise

The $120 million Justice Complex in Clayton County, Georgia is the largest set of building projects ever undertaken in Jonesboro. During construction, CGL originally served as the County’s Program Manager/Owner’s Representative, and delivered the 726,500 SF secure justice facility in 28 months. The original justice center consists of a courthouse with 18 courtrooms and a 1,536- bed jail. In 2012, the addition of a state-of-the-art juvenile court and detention building called the Youth Development and Justice Center expanded the facility to 795,676 SF.

CGL currently performs all maintenance activities for the justice center, including all preventive and reactive maintenance, emergency maintenance response, central plant maintenance, and more. In this ongoing contract, CGL maintains all boilers, chillers, and HVAC equipment to keep the facility running 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Because of CGL’s outstanding maintenance performance at the Justice Center, Clayton County asked CGL to also maintain its swimming pool facilities across the County. CGL provides maintenance for nine buildings
encompassing 267,453 SF.

All maintenance activities at Clayton County facilities are performed by in-house CGL managers and technicians. CGL currently employs 14 technicians and one Facility Manager to perform all maintenance-related work on the justice center campus and around Clayton County.

CGL’s Facility Manager is responsible for day-to-day operations and service delivery. The Facility Manager reviews and issues work orders, develops work schedules, assigns work orders to technicians, manages
procurement and inventories, develops and reviews budgets, and interacts daily with justice center leadership. The Clayton County Facility Manager is also a skilled technician and performs preventive and
reactive maintenance when necessary. CGL’s corporate management provides contract management, executive oversight, and accounting, HR, and IT support.
