DALLAS - Austin Commercial was ranked #37 on Associated Builders and Contractors’ fifth annual Top Performers publication, which lists its contractor members that build the country’s most enduring, innovative, high-quality construction projects, ranked by work hours.

Among the Top 250, Austin Commercial also placed on the following market segment lists:

  • Top General Contractors - #22
  • Top Airport Contractors - #2
  • Top High Tech Contractors - #5
  • Top Sports Complex Contractors - #19

As an ABC Top Performer, Austin Commercial achieved Gold status or higher in ABC’s STEP Safety Management System, which makes the top-performing contractors more than six times safer than the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average, according to ABC’s Safety Performance Report. The majority of the honorees also must earn ABC’s Accredited Quality Contractor credential, which recognizes commitment to corporate responsibility in quality, safety, talent management—including inclusion, diversity and equity—education and community relations.

“Austin Commercial invests in and attributes its successes to its people, and its value proposition gives their employees purpose, delivers quality to their clients and strengthens their bottom line,” said Michael Bellaman, president and chief executive officer of ABC. “Congratulations to Austin Commercial for raising the bar in developing people, winning work and delivering that work safely, ethically and profitably.”

“This year’s ABC Top Performers agree that culture is key,” said Michael Bellaman, president and CEO of ABC. “Not only is a strong corporate culture an essential component of a thriving and vibrant workplace, but it helps retain top talent, create safe and healthy jobsites and build better communities. We honor this top-performing contractor and all employees at Austin Commercial who are placing the highest importance on investing in their people, health and safety, and innovation.”

Through STEP, AQC and other robust programs, Top Performer companies demonstrate they can:
