Building Communities
BD Construction strives to be more than a construction firm, we work to make communities healthier, smarter and more economically vibrant.
The BD culture fosters and encourages staff involvement in community organizations like the Chamber of Commerce, service clubs, churches, cultural and human service agencies. Our crew participates in service projects for the community, including building a new playground for a local school.
As a leader in the construction field in the Midwest, BD Construction team members participate in the Associated General Contractors-Nebraska Building Chapter, a leading association for the commercial construction industry. Through ongoing training, our team members grow in their knowledge and expertise of the industry and remain current on construction trends.
Additionally, BD Construction has partnered with area high schools and colleges to help develop curriculums to educate students for life-long, rewarding careers in construction.
