I chose to work at BPGS Construction because… I chose to work at BPGS Construction upon graduating from college in 1999. At the time, BPGS Construction was just starting up and had only four associates. I declined offers from larger, well-known, established construction managers to take a chance on BPGS, a small start-up with young entrepreneurial owners at the time. I wanted to be a part of a ground-up construction company tied to a developer with huge growth potential.
BPGS Construction is unlike any other company because… BPGS is a dynamic, creative, and innovative design-build construction company that directly serves a large private developer, The Buccini Pollin Group, as well as select third party clients . Our team consists of smart, forward-thinking individuals that always find a way to get the most difficult projects done for our very demanding clients. Since BPGS is associated with a development company, we are involved in the design, estimating, and value engineering from the very beginning of all projects.
