At 35, DPR Construction Celebrates The Vision, People And Innovation That Drive Its Success

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Founded in 1990 by Doug Woods, Peter Nosler and Ron Davidowski, the company's approach – a shared leadership model, focused market expertise, and a culture built on an unwavering commitment to Build Great Things – stands the test of time. Today, DPR ranks among the nation's top 10 contractors and is one of the largest self-performing general contractors in the world.

"We are proud to support our customers and the projects that advance new technologies, lead to the discovery and manufacturing of new medicines and surface new delivery methods," said DPR CEO and Leadership Team Member George Pfeffer. "We are honored to build the buildings where we'll educate future generations, heal the sick, deliver new life and unite communities. Most importantly we're fortunate to do all it all with talented, dedicated teammates who share a passion for building."

Amidst the complexity of construction, DPR focuses on breaking industry norms to deliver more predictable outcomes for its customers. This predictability is driven in large part through a relentless focus on innovation. Whether progressing traditional construction techniques and delivery methods, improving safety and schedule through advances in virtual design and construction (VDC) and prefabrication, or developing new technologies and processes to improve efficiency in the field, DPR's 70 patents are just one indication of its groundbreaking contributions to the industry. The company has also been recognized twice by Fast Company as a Best Workplace for Innovators .

But the company's commitment to change isn't limited to its projects or technical innovation. DPR's reputation for caring for people and building belonging also sets it apart. With more than 12,000 employees across its Family of Companies , including nearly 6,000 self-perform craft workers, the company strives to make DPR a place where all employees can grow, develop and build a great career. The company's benefits program, which includes PTO for non-union craft and paid holidays for both union and non-union craft after one year of service, is one of the most comprehensive in the industry. And, because DPR is an employee-owned company, all full-time employees can both influence-and share in-the company's profits.

"We know that our teams do their best work when they feel like they can be themselves and are respected both for who they are and for their contributions. Respect the Individual is a central belief at DPR," Pfeffer added. "We're working every day to ensure that DPR is a place where all employees feel like they belong, providing benefits that make our employees and their loved ones feel safe, supported and valued."

Named one of America's Greatest Employers and Greatest Employers for Mental Wellbeing by Newsweek, one of America's Best Employers by Forbes, and a best place to work in more than 15 cities nationwide, DPR invests in a variety of programs and participates in a number of groups designed to build belonging and foster mental wellbeing. The company is a founding member of Construction Inclusion Week and an active participant in the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention.

Looking ahead, DPR remains focused on Mission 2030, its aim to become a most admired company. For DPR, that means continuing to deliver truly great results, remaining integral and indispensable in the communities where its people live and work, and innovating to advance standards and change perceptions about what the construction industry can be.
