PROSPERITY: FOR OUR CLIENTS

For our clients, that means projects completed with industry-leading skill and safety, matched by innovation that adds value and efficiencies.

Projects

PROSPERITY: FOR OUR COMMUNITIES

For the communities where we work, it means the highest quality in the places where people live, learn, work, travel, heal. It also means help for those in need through volunteering and the Sundt Foundation, which has given millions to local causes.

Community Involvement

PROSPERITY: FOR EMPLOYEE-OWNERS

Sundt was a pioneer in profit-sharing, taking the first steps toward becoming an employee-owned company in 1965. Today, with 100 percent employee ownership, Sundt ranks No. 49 on the NCEO’s list of the largest majority employee-owned companies.

Employee Ownership

OUR VALUES

  • Integrity

    Our business is built on integrity, fairness and honesty—qualities at the foundation of every project. We say what we are going to do, and we do it.

  • We are relentlessly focused on executing to the highest standards for our clients and communities. We give our very best on every task we perform.

  • Safety is an intrinsic part of our culture and the reason that Sundt has twice been named the nation’s safest construction company by the Associated General Contractors of America.

  • We guide our business with clear communication, expectations and data-driven decisions. We understand how our actions affect the company’s future, and we take ownership of our successes and our failures.

  • We go out of our way to advance our profession and improve people’s lives in the communities where we live and work. It is both a responsibility and a privilege to help create a lasting, positive impact.

  • We strive every day to better our tools, our processes and ourselves to build better. As our clients evolve, we pioneer new approaches to meet and anticipate their needs.

OUR CULTURE

The sum of our beliefs and behaviors, the defining factor behind our success.

As Sundt employee-owners, we know who we are, where our company is going, and what’s important. Sundt has a distinct order and discipline to our work, and this enables us to execute at a higher level. Because we have incentives to perform as both individuals and teams, we hold each other to a higher standard for our actions and results. Together, we build successful projects because we build diverse, cohesive teams of committed people. Relationships based on trust and work built on purpose are what continue to set Sundt culture apart.
