Ray Garfield shares how his firm has revolutionized public infrastructure development by creating faster, more efficient alternatives to traditional government building processes. Helping public clients bypass lengthy referendums and inefficient bidding systems, Garfield Public Private has delivered nearly $3 billion in essential facilities through innovative financing and development strategies.
• Established in 1997, Garfield Public Private specializes in developing infrastructure for public clients like cities, counties, universities, and healthcare campuses
• Traditional public projects face delays through separate architect selection, design phases, and low-bid contractor requirements that often lead to budget overruns
• Their approach identifies alternative funding sources that don't require voter approval, significantly accelerating project timelines
• The company created innovative financing for Atlanta's courthouse using existing fine and forfeiture revenues rather than waiting years for a referendum
• As project leaders, they bring together architects, contractors, financial advisors, and bond counsel to deliver turnkey solutions
• Their portfolio includes convention centers, headquarters hotels, performing arts venues, courthouses, and other public infrastructure
• New ventures include Garfield Asset Management for ongoing facility oversight and Garfield Clean Energy for municipal solar projects
• Ray's background as a Navy pilot, Wall Street executive at Solomon Brothers, and public company CEO provided the expertise to create this specialized development model
