Cianbro was recently ranked #8 on the Associated Builders and Contractors’ 2020 Top 120 General Contractors list which recognizes ABC member contractors’ achievements in safety, quality, diversity and project excellence, ranked by work hours.

The ABC Top Performers lists are published as a supplement to Construction Executive magazine. To be eligible all member contractors must have earned ABC’s elite Accredited Quality Contractor (AQC) credential for corporate responsibility and have achieved Gold status or higher in ABC’s STEP Safety Management System in 2019. The Top Performers were ranked by size based on the number of hours worked in 2018, as reported in their 2019 STEP applications.

“ABC Top Performers are the best large contractors in the merit shop construction industry, demonstrating the highest commitment to world-class safety, craftmanship, workforce development and community engagement,” said Michael Bellaman, president and chief executive officer of ABC. “These rankings identify contractors like Cianbro who will continue to lead our industry as we adopt innovative technologies, tackle industry-wide challenges such as the workforce shortage, and lead us into a new decade.”

Top-performing contractors are up to 827% safer than the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average, according to the ABC 2020 Safety Performance Report.
