by GroundBreak Staff Report on

Charlotte, NC, March 8, 2022 – Today, ABC Carolinas announced 24 member companies who were named to Associated Builders and Contractors’ 2022 Top Performers list, which ranks its commercial and industrial contractor members that build long-lasting, high-quality construction projects, based on work hours.

ABC Carolinas’ President & CEO, Amy Sullivan Hicks, says “ABC Carolina’s salutes our Member Companies who have achieved ABC’s Top Performers status! These ABC Carolina’s companies excel in quality, safety, inclusion, diversity and equity, special designations, project excellence and are ranked by work hours.” 

To be eligible, ABC Carolinas Top Performers demonstrated world-class safety performance by achieving 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 listings highlight ABC Carolinas’ contractors that have earned ABC’s Accredited Quality Contractor credential for their commitment to corporate responsibility in quality, safety, talent management—including inclusion, diversity and equity—education and community relations; those that won national Excellence in Construction,® Safety Excellence and Inclusion, Diversity and Equity Excellence awards; and those that hold designations awarded to diverse companies to help procure work from government and private entities.

“These construction industry leaders invest in and attribute their successes to their people, and their 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 these top-performing ABC Carolinas’ Chapter Members for raising the bar in developing people, winning work and delivering that work safely, ethically and profitably.”

·       Commit to workforce development, education and creating career opportunities

·       Commit to an inclusive and diverse work environment

The companies are ranked by size based on the number of hours worked in 2020 as reported in their 2021 STEP applications. New to this year’s rankings are lists of top-performing companies in 18 market segments, such as government, health care, infrastructure, military, retail, religious and sports complexes.
