What does a Director of Preconstruction actually do all day? A little bit of everything. ☕ Reviewing priorities, supporting her team, tackling project challenges, planning for growth, and keeping people connected along the way. Spend the day with Abi and get a look behind the scenes at the leadership, strategy, and teamwork that happen long before construction begins.

Every lasting structure begins with a strong foundation.

The foundation is one of the most important steps in any construction project, providing the strength and stability needed to support everything that comes next.

The New Ector County Courthouse is being built on a foundation of careful planning, collaboration, and a commitment to serving the community for years to come.

As construction continues, each milestone brings this vision one step closer to becoming a reality. Read more about the project at newectorcourthouse.com

Sometimes, speaking up is the most important thing you can do on a jobsite.

During a tilt-wall lift, Bictor Longoria, with 7S Erectors LLC, noticed something fall from the crane. He trusted his instincts, stopped the lift, and called for an inspection. The team discovered a broken safety retaining pin on the pendant lines and addressed the issue before work continued.

We’re proud to recognize Bictor with the Butler-Cohen Empowerment Award for having the confidence to stop, speak up, and put safety first.

Thank you for setting the example, Bictor! 👏

Well... this completely melted us. ❤️

The students at Aristoi Classical Academy surprised our team with these handwritten thank you notes and drawings, and there may have been a few happy tears around the office.

Thank you for your kindness, your creativity, and the reminder that behind every project are students whose lives will be shaped by the spaces we build. That means everything to us. 🏫

Beyond the walls of the building, a courthouse is a place where residents access essential services, where justice is served, and where important work happens every day.

The New Ector County Courthouse is designed to support these needs with a modern, accessible facility built around the people of Ector County. Learn more about the project at newectorcourthouse.com

The Ector County Juvenile Justice Center is officially going vertical. With tilt-wall panels now in place and the structure beginning to take shape, this project is moving from plans and renderings to a visible reality. Proud to partner with Ector County on a facility that will serve the community for years to come. 🏗️
