The term “operational excellence” often is applied to global fast-food juggernaut McDonald’s, which uses precision planning to offer well-liked menu items prepared to meet the same quality standards anywhere in the world.

However, Alpine owner Kelli Pawlik and her husband, Karsten Pawlik, also point to operational excellence as a factor in their demolition company’s ability to survive and thrive in the competitive Chicagoland demo market.


The Pawliks point to efficient, well-equipped operations in the field as one of several factors that have enabled the company to grow from modest roots in a home basement office to a company that takes on approximately 100 projects annually.
