Diversity on Every Worksite
We recognize the importance of Diversity and Inclusion in our workplace and on all our project sites. We understand the economic impact real estate and commercial development can have on the neighborhoods in which we work and potential profound long term effects the selecting of diverse subcontractors and a diverse workforce can have on our society.
We are committed to furthering the growth and development of minority owned and women owned trade partners and businesses, through the implementation of an effective outreach and engagement plan, policies and procedures in the procurement and delivery of preconstruction and construction management services on all our projects.
