In everything we do, Crowder is deeply committed to the safety of our employees and the general public. Our safety staff is highly trained and committed to developing safety policies and procedures that exceed most client requirements. Crowder simply does not compromise the safety of employees. As a result, Crowder has been recognized by the North Carolina Building Star Program and the Federal OSHA Voluntary Protection Program. We have received the AGC National Safety Excellence Award and the Diamond STEP Award & Award of Safety Excellence. While we are very proud of our many awards and recognitions for our excellence in safety, our real satisfaction comes in knowing that we have provided the safest possible working environment for each employee, subcontractor, and supplier in our family.
Crowder Constructors Inc., our parent company, is headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina. With offices throughout the Southeast, we are established members of those communities. We can efficiently mobilize our expertise, employees, and equipment to complete any project.
In 2005, Crowder was awarded a contract to expand and upgrade the City of Wilmington’s existing 8 million gallon per day (MGD) Wastewater Treatment Plant to a 16 MGD plant. Maintaining the plant’s operability at all times throughout the construction project was of primary importance to the City. Communication, coordination and planned sequencing were key components to the success of the project. Crowder completed work on sludge dewatering/drying beds, sludge thickening, aeration tanks, blower/generator buildings, trickling filters and pump stations. In addition, Crowder built a new effluent pump station, completed modifications to existing blowers and added chlorination facilities. Crowder’s electrical contract included an entire power scheme for the plant, from the transformers to the substations. Electrical service was provided for the new facility, and new service was established for the existing plant. Crowder self-performed the concrete, equipment setting, piping and all electrical work on this project, which was completed on time and $6 million below budget. The Carolinas Chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America (CAGC) named this project the “Best Utility Project” of 2009 and awarded the 2009 Pinnacle Award to Crowder.
