Company DescriptionBurke Construction Group, Inc. (BCG) is a privately held firm managed by Tony Burke, David Martinez, and Gil Nehamkin. BCG provides design-build, general construction, construction management, and pre-construction consulting services. BCG specializes in commercial, educational, and residential construction, solar feasibility studies and design-build installations, and sports field construction. Under the direction of Burke, Martinez, and Nehamkin, the firm has managed and built over $2.5 billion of high-quality and high-profile jobs.
The firm provides a myriad of services throughout the United States and some worldwide. BCG is licensed in multiple states and holds various licenses in disciplines, such as site work, utilities, plumbing, gas, mechanical, solar design and installation, and sports field construction.
Integrity, Ingenuity, Initiative - That's what you can expect from BCG. When we make a promise, we keep it. We pride ourselves on finding innovative, creative solutions unique to each project. And we take a leadership role, proactively participating in design discussions and directing all critical elements of construction. BCG has the depth of resources to support the proposed project team, yet our company is still small enough to assure that everyone knows each other and peers collaborate with one another. Minimal layers assure that senior management is involved in all projects and that decisions are made quickly.
Over the course of hundreds of successfully completed projects, we have developed a clearly defined baseline level of quality both in how we approach and manage the project and the final product. Every staff member is well versed in our standards and clearly communicates our expectations to the subcontractors prior to construction. While established processes create the framework for our interactions, project managers and superintendents have the authority to make decisions in the field to address the myriad of variables that make up a construction project. The senior management team is actively involved in every project and maintains direct communication that expedites critical decisions, making us more responsive to your needs. We have invested heavily in the industry's top talent, ensuring the successful completion of virtually every type and size of project.
