One operator. One licensed GC partner.
No layered account managers. Danny Bivins runs Collaborative Concepts — sourcing, underwriting, investor relations, and project oversight. Keith La Gala and La Gala Construction (FL CGC 059211) are the go-to GC partner executing every build.

Keith La Gala
GC Partner · La Gala Construction
25+ years building and restoring in South Florida. University of Florida — Construction Management with a minor in Business Finance. Florida State Certified General Contractor. Keith and the La Gala team are Collaborative Concepts' go-to GC on every development project — the license, the field experience, and the subcontractor relationships behind every build.
Operator + licensed GC under one roof.
Most development shops either don't have a builder in-house (and get squeezed by subs) or are builders trying to play developer (and get squeezed on the underwriting). Collaborative Concepts keeps them separate but aligned: Danny runs the deal, Keith runs the build, and investors get the upside of both.
Danny sources & underwrites
Off-market and on-market deal flow in Florida coastal markets. Comp analysis, cost modeling, investor structure.
Keith builds
La Gala Construction executes permitting, sitework, vertical construction, MEP, finish, and punch. Licensed, bonded, insured.
Investors get the upside
JV 50/50 with 10% preferred return. Escrow-controlled draws. First right of refusal on the pipeline.
