Dr. Rob Avila

Founder

Dr. Rob Avila, created AIM Design & Development, LLC out of pure necessity.  Over 25 years ago, during construction of his first Healthcare Facility, Dr. Avila thrust himself into a Construction Management/Project Management role, to overcome the consistent lack of communication, quality, and follow through from Contractor to Subcontractor.  Dr. Avila quickly realized the only way to acquire “Value of a Build” was to engage with Quality Subcontractors,  and Maintain Direct Mitigation/Mediation through performing All Construction Management Supervision & Project Support from inception to Certificate of Occupancy.
