Community engagement: Our employees are committed to the communities in which we work and live, from mentoring our next generation through the ACE Mentor program and internships with local higher education institutions, to stocking a truck with gifts or food with organizations like Opportunity Alliance, to joining a community building project with Habitat for Humanity.

Innovation & technology: While nothing can replace the skills of our most qualified craftspeople, pairing their experience with today’s technology is a powerful combination. Our approach to Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) elevates our work by allowing clients and partners to visualize the building process and make informed decisions with tools like 3D modeling, laser scanning and drone capture. We’re also implementing innovative building methods like modular construction and off-site prefabrication for enhanced project efficiency.
