Across Buist Electric’s primary stomping grounds of western Michigan, business continues to be strong. The Byron Center, Mich.-based electrical contractor is on track to grow its regional revenue by 25% in 2023, continuing a pace set over the last several years.
Business continues to grow for Ogden, Utah-based Staker Parson Materials & Construction, a CRH Company, which has provided infrastructure, commercial and residential construction services to all market sectors in the Intermountain region for the last 70 years.
Lance Franklin and Frank Reich, co-founders and co-CEOs of New York City-based Triton Construction Co., would like to say they planned the firm to be a leader in regional nonunion construction, but gaining that position in a region long dominated by organized labor happened by fate.
As many workers and companies still embrace hybrid and remote models established during the COVID-19 pandemic—even several years out from its onset—impacts on construction continue, with some sectors thriving and others diminishing.
