Diversity makes us better builders

Diversity of people, thoughts and perspectives fosters creativity and innovation and improves outcomes. That’s one reason we focus on being welcoming and inclusive and hiring diverse team members and trade partners. In honoring our values, we also recognize that everyone starts from a different rung of the ladder; we choose to lift up those who need it.

A diverse foundation builds a stronger network

No one said achieving excellence is easy. It’s a daily undertaking that requires a full team’s effort. Together, we attain excellence by focusing on three pillars: operating with extreme efficiency, maintaining a customer-first outlook and acquiring the best talent the industry has to offer.

Diversity strengthens our supply chain

Just like we value diversity in our own team, we believe that diverse trade partners improve project outcomes. We welcome working with successful companies that have diverse ownership and employees.

OUR COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY EXTENDS TO WORKING WITH WELL-QUALIFIED TRADE PARTNERS AND HELPING SMALLER DIVERSE AND DISADVANTAGED FIRMS GROW.
