ABOUT
MISSION
Our mission is to deliver high-quality construction projects in the Pacific Northwest consistent with maximum customer value. Throughout every facet of our business, we remain committed to the highest standards of professionalism, building effective relationships with clients, subcontractors, suppliers, and consultants, and maintaining the utmost level of integrity.
HISTORY
Mark Takisaki began working for the company in 1968 while still in high school and learned many of his business skills from his father, Jim. In 1984 Mark purchased the firm and has continued the proud tradition of integrity, professionalism, and client service to this day. Under Mark’s leadership, the company continues to grow primarily focusing on public works construction contracts.
DIVERSITY STATEMENT
As a third-generation minority business enterprise, we have built our company on diversity, equality, and inclusion. The recent events that have occurred in our country reflect the racial prejudices and injustices that continue to remain in our communities today. Change is needed and each of us has the opportunity to make a difference. We believe that we are all better by the diversity that exists within our company and communities. We strive to create a workplace that builds an inclusive culture that celebrates, supports, and encourages the diversity of our employees and is equitable to all regardless of race, gender identity, age, religion, or sexual orientation.
