Big-D Construction was ranked number 4 on the Associated Builders and Contractors' 2019 Top Performer in the Mountain West list. The Top Performers list recognizes ABC member contractor's achievements in safety, quality, diversity, and project excellence.

The Top Performers were ranked by size based on the number of hours worked in 2017, as reported in their 2018 STEP applications. To be eligible, Big-D had to demonstrate world-class safety performance that aligned with ABC's STEP safety management system.

"ABC Top Performers are leading the way in the merit shop construction industry, where diverse participants are constantly striving to achieve the highest levels of personal and company performance in an environment of fair and open competition," said Michael Bellaman, president and chief executive officer of ABC. "These rankings will help the industry identify contractors like Big-D Construction that have achieved world-class safety performance, demonstrated their commitment to their workers and their communities and earned recognition for project excellence and diversity."

The ranking comes after Big-D Construction garnered seven ABC Utah Chapter awards earlier this year, including Project Champion of the Year for the restoration of the historic Salt Lake City & County Building. In addition, Big-D's safety team was awarded the 2019 Platinum ABC STEP Award.
