Facility Design, Construction and Finance

The GEO Group, Inc. has been a leader in the architectural design of correctional and residential treatment facilities since 1992. Over more than 15 years, GEO and its in-house design and development team have developed over 70 facility construction and renovation projects globally valued in excess of US$2 billion.

Design

Each development project includes a team of correctional facility designers as well as experts in security services, medical services, food services, offender programs, facility maintenance and information technology.

This team is involved in every phase — from conceptual design through to final development — before assuming responsibility for facility operations. This unique approach of operational experts working alongside design and construction professionals results in a well-developed efficient facility as well as reasonable construction and operational costs.

Using its combined capabilities, our team can ensure that the design is state-of-the-art, proven for operational reliability and that construction is completed within a minimum timeframe.

The GEO design group is recognised globally as the premier development company for correctional facilities. Our reputation has been earned through a management philosophy that places emphasis on security, functionality, durability and cost effectiveness.

Construction

Much like our dedication to be the best design team in the industry, we strive to work with the best builders in the industry.

Our specialists are on-site throughout construction to ensure compliance with building and security standards. GEO has an impressive record of designing and constructing secure facilities on time and within budget.

Our design team has never missed a completion date and has never exceeded an authorised contract price for any construction project.

By integrating design, construction and operations we are able to develop and open new facilities up to 50 per cent faster with cost savings of up to 40 per cent.
