About Kiewit

Innovation, hard work and integrity. These are the keys to Kiewit's success. Kiewit is one of North America's largest and most respected construction and mining organizations. For over 125 years, we have delivered world-class solutions to projects of every size, in every market. No project is too challenging or unique, too big or small. Our goal for every project is the same - build it safely, on time, on budget and with no surprises. Kiewit is successful because our people have the ability and desire to build exciting and challenging projects. Kiewit people possess a drive to excel and a willingness to take on new and unique responsibilities. We have initiative. We explore innovative ideas. We seek better solutions. We are enthusiastic, hardworking and committed to quality and excellence. As an employee-owned company, our company's assets are managed by those closest to the work. Long-term strategies are formulated by managers who grew up in the business. Most of our executives are long-time Kiewit employees who started as project engineers, superintendents and foremen. At Kiewit, employees are promoted to levels of greater responsibility on the basis of their demonstrated ability. This led Forbes magazine in 1983 to describe Kiewit as "the ultimate meritocracy."
