About Lentulo Consulting
Lentulo Consulting provides registered and certified project inspectors/inspectors of record (IOR), and related special inspectors. Our clients are primarily facility planning and construction teams that are building or modernizing K-12 public schools, community colleges, and the CA State University. We are dedicated to representing the owner’s interest and ensuring that the project's results are in compliance with the contract documents.
Our quality assurance (QA) inspectors are process managers who administer the testing and inspections program set forth by the project's design professionals and the California Code of Regulations, Title 24. We are proud to serve the communities of Southern California, certifying seismic safety, fire and life safety, and access compliance on taxpayer-funded public works projects.
All our inspectors are DSA, OSHPD, ACIA-RCI, and/or ICC certified, so you can be assured of experienced, competent third-party monitoring of all aspects of the construction for contract and code compliance. Pre-bid plan and specification review, post-project record compilation, review of contractor's invoices, and participation in jobsite meetings to integrate QA into your project schedule are all vital activities for which the resident inspector is uniquely suited.
We work hard to uphold our credo that "Providing for the client's interest is our only gauge of success." Contact us today!
History
Begun in 1989 as a construction trades contracting business taking whatever jobs were available, as a result of our clients' needs the business model evolved by 1997 into primarily construction management, cost-plus project delivery method..
By 2001, the business again shifted to focus almost entirely on the inspection of public school construction occurring under the jurisdiction of the CA Division of the State Architect (DSA). Demand grew quickly as our past experience as builders provided us with the foresight to look beyond day-to-day construction and to see potential problems before they surfaced.
Joining the construction management team of San Diego Unified School District in 2002 during the implementation of Proposition MM (a $1.5 billion school construction bond), George Lentulo served as an inspector and a construction manager until 2009, and separately administered construction warranty issues for the school district during that tenure.
Due to the efforts of a great many people, Proposition MM was a success that paved the way for the current model of bond-funded capital improvement programs for school districts throughout the county and state. George remains proud of the fact that he was the last contract (consultant) inspector remaining at the conclusion of Prop MM, something he feels stands as a testament to his devotion to his client's interest.
Since that time, Lentulo Consulting has continued to provide inspection services in four Southern California counties for project owners including the California State University, USS Midway Museum, San Diego Community College District, Palomar College District, Palo Verde College District, Palo Verde Unified School District, and the San Diego Unified School District.
