&lt;p&gt;Henson Construction has been headquartered at 2300 West Oklahoma Avenue in Enid since 1964. Look around town and you&amp;rsquo;ll see our work: Enid High School, the University Center, Garfield Elementary, Autry Tech, NWOSU-Enid, INTEGRIS, the City of Enid offices, the Garfield County Detention Facility, Leonardo&amp;rsquo;s Children&amp;rsquo;s Museum, Oakwood Country Club, Atwoods headquarters and more.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>General Contracting</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/general-contracting/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/general-contracting/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="building-it-right-the-first-time"&gt;Building it right, the first time&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a general contractor, Henson Construction takes full responsibility for turning your drawings into a finished building. Since 1964 we&amp;rsquo;ve built schools, hospitals, offices, dealerships, municipal buildings and detention facilities across Oklahoma and Southern Kansas — and we bring every one of those lessons to your project.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Construction Management</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/construction-management/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/construction-management/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="a-builder-at-the-table-from-the-first-meeting"&gt;A builder at the table from the first meeting&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Construction management puts Henson&amp;rsquo;s estimators, schedulers and superintendents on your team while the building is still being designed. We help the owner and architect make informed decisions about systems, materials and phasing — then we manage construction to deliver exactly what was planned.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Enid High School Gymnasium &amp; Performing Arts Center</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/projects/enid-high-school-gym-performing-arts-center/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/projects/enid-high-school-gym-performing-arts-center/</guid><description>A competition gymnasium and performing arts venue that gives Enid High School students a true home court and a professional-quality stage.</description></item><item><title>Northwest Oklahoma</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/service-areas/northwest-oklahoma/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/service-areas/northwest-oklahoma/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="building-rural-oklahomas-institutions"&gt;Building rural Oklahoma&amp;rsquo;s institutions&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Northwest Oklahoma&amp;rsquo;s communities depend on their schools, hospitals, county facilities and universities.

&lt;p&gt;Owners in the Oklahoma City metro choose Henson for the same reasons our hometown clients do: senior people on every job, transparent cost reporting, a 0.80 experience modifier and one of the lowest bonding rates available. Our Enid headquarters is about 90 minutes from downtown OKC.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Renovation &amp; Restoration</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/renovation-restoration/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/services/renovation-restoration/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="respect-for-whats-there-vision-for-whats-next"&gt;Respect for what&amp;rsquo;s there. Vision for what&amp;rsquo;s next.&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Renovation is where experience matters most. Hidden conditions, aging utilities and original construction methods all reveal themselves once work begins. Henson&amp;rsquo;s long-tenured project managers and superintendents have seen it before — and they plan for it.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Garfield Elementary School</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/projects/garfield-elementary-school/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/projects/garfield-elementary-school/</guid><description>A bright, durable elementary school with a combined cafeteria and auditorium stage at its heart.</description></item><item><title>Southern Kansas</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/service-areas/southern-kansas/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/service-areas/southern-kansas/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="crossing-the-state-line-since-1964"&gt;Crossing the state line since 1964&lt;/h2&gt;

Here&amp;rsquo;s what it means and why it matters.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="the-short-definition"&gt;The short definition&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A Guaranteed Maximum Price is a contract ceiling. The construction manager guarantees that the cost of delivering a defined scope of work will not exceed a stated amount. If actual costs run higher, the contractor covers the difference. If they come in lower, savings are typically shared with or returned to the owner, depending on the contract.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How Preconstruction Services Save Owners Money (Before Ground Is Broken)</title><link>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/insights/how-preconstruction-saves-money/</link><pubDate>Tue, 28 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://hensonconstruction-com.website-heroes-staging.com/insights/how-preconstruction-saves-money/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;The cheapest place to change a building is on paper.
