Kiewit is synonymous with superior quality. They've built their reputation on the principles of broad-based employee ownership, autonomous local offices, dedication to employee training and development, and sound financial practices. Their commitment to these principles is reflected in the success of their projects. They’re consistently ranked as one of the top 10 contractors by Engineering News-Record.
As a local contractor with extraordinary national resources and support, few companies can match Kiewit's ability to meet a client's needs. Their subsidiaries operate from a network of offices that extends throughout North America. They’ve completed projects from the Arctic Circle to the Gulf of Mexico. The highway, the tunnel, the dam, the airport, the energy plant and the high–rise—no matter how complex the project, they meticulously plan every detail and double check our double checks. It's a philosophy that has not only allowed them to reach their dreams of success, but to exceed them.
