Why in America, the land of opportunity, would our elected leaders not welcome fair and open competition? This fundamental belief awarding work based on merit creates the conditions for construction companies and worker talent to innovate, continuously improve their value proposition and become more productive; therefor producing longer lasting high quality projects for the best price (initial and life cycle of built asset).
This is the philosophy that drives the best contractors in the construction industry. United Group Services, the ABC Contractor of the year, shares their story. United Group Services embodies the essence of the merit shop construction industry.
You can gain insights and perspectives on how construction technology helps construction companies innovate and drive more value in their production of goods and services in the industry. Merit shop contractors’ thirst for new ways to gain an edge in competing for work based on merit.

Combining top talent with a desire to innovate and exceed customer expectations results in winning and delivering long lasting projects that benefit the communities in which they are built. In this issue on page, we share a great example of the Wisconsin Center expansion in Milwaukee.
In the world of fair and open competition, where ALL are welcome, these stories are abundant as ALL American companies and construction workers are given the opportunity to author their success story and realize their dreams. This is simply a function of creating the conditions for all to compete based on merit.
It is fascinating to me that anyone would want it any other way.
