Welcome
Friends, Colleagues, Clients, Students:
…welcome to the new danZpage. Here you can access my companies and projects (click the links on the right), check out photos and writings, access my full CV, see comments by others, or send me a quick hello or ask a question.
Dan Fauchier is an experienced team facilitator for Project ReAlignment and cross-organizational team effectiveness, a construction dispute resolutionist, forensics consultant, design manager, construction project manager, college teacher, mediator, arbitrator and construction management expert with over thirty years experience in direct, hands-on development, design and construction management on projects from $250,000 to $140,000,000, and forensics consulting for over $3,000,000,000 in projects nationwide.
As vice-president of The ReAlignment Group, Ltd., based in La Jolla, CA, one of Dan’s major clients is the $6 Billion California prison health care initiative to build 10,000 new prison hospital beds by 2012, working under Court ordered urgency and using collaboration to integrate Alignment partnering and Lean project delivery in design-build co-opetition contracts.
Dan is also involved in major water projects like the All American Canal and the San Vicente Dam Raise, wastewater projects, and freeway corridor construction like the building of Route 905 at the US-Mexico border.
In recent years Dan has also become one of the go-to guys regarding California diesel emissions regulations and solutions, which dovetail with Dan’s interest in identifying and implementing viable business solutions to the intertwined challenges of environment and energy. His column Dear Diesel Dan appears bi-monthly in the EGCA Magazine.
He is also an aspiring producer of outdoor concerts at the 2,000 seat Nature Theatre on top of Mt. Helix near San Diego, where he and RJ Brooks have designed Boca de Lyon, a mountain top solar-powered green home and recording studio.
