Jeffrey Koffler

With Vanguard for nearly thirty years, Jeffrey helps manage our active projects, contributing
his expertise toward all stages from logistics to staffing, oversight of safety, quality control,
and close-out. Kicking-off jobs, he meets with our project team of Estimator, Project Manager, Assistant PM, and Superintendent, to identify Long Lead items, review logistics and staging, confirm means, methods and sequencing, and help set standards of Quality Control. Jeffrey is also our Director of Safety, performing ongoing reviews of Fire Safety and OSHA
regulations as applied to all our active sites. Working behind the scenes, he makes himself
available to resolve knotty accounting, or steps in on a late afternoon or weekend, to ensure
whatever needs to be executed will get done. Jeffrey is also a master jigsaw puzzle solver,
often completing one once a week.

“I find doing puzzles very relaxing. My mind goes into another zone. When you get
to the last 100 pieces, it all pops together so quickly. You go at a different speed. It’s
just like moving a client in, there’s that sense of satisfaction. And putting in that very
last piece––it feels spectacular!”
