Crowder Construction Company, based in Charlotte, NC, received the prestigious Pinnacle Award for “Best General Contractor” from Carolinas AGC.

Crowder is a privately held and family controlled company that consistently ranks in the ENR Top 400, with revenues over $150 million. Its 600 full time employees specialize in Industrial, Site & Highway, Bridge, and Civil & Environmental construction.

The judges found Crowder to be remarkable on 3 main fronts:

• Remarkably impressive employee benefits program, with Crowder paying for a high proportion—for example, a 529 College Education Savings plan. Another such benefit is the Crowder University career path training system offered to all employees and often to subcontractor employees as well.

• Outstanding and consistent contributions to the Carolinas construction industry at several levels.

• An exceptional and stellar safety program—simply no comparison. Crowder has earned the prestigious Building Star Contractor designation from the NC Department of Labor twice since 2002.

Crowder Construction has been a Carolinas AGC member for 55 years.

The Best General Contractor award was presented to Crowder Construction Company at the Carolinas AGC Annual Convention at The Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes in Orlando, FL, January 27, 2005.
