The St. George office is led by a team of outstanding construction professionals who consistently demonstrate the standards we were founded on. We call it The Big Idea and it is centered around Respect, People, and Truth. We give equal respect to employees and customers, we assemble the best people in the business to work on projects, and we always build with truth and integrity – if we say it, we do it. Just as Big-D Construction seeks to be the most sought-after construction company in the business, the St. George office has a similar goal of being the number one construction company in Southern Utah.

Phase 3 of the Salt Lake City International Airport is officially taking off, thanks to our Big-D Construction team and partners at Holder Construction (HDJV).
Phase 3 marks a significant milestone in the ongoing efforts to transform the airport into a world-class travel hub, and showcases the hard work, dedication, and teamwork of everyone involved.
The centerpiece of Phase 3 is the Central Tunnel, a critical connector between Concourses A and B, which significantly reduces walking distance for passengers.
This tunnel isn’t just functional; it’s also a visually stunning space, thanks to the inclusion of The River Tunnel—a remarkable art installation by Gordon Huether. The installation reflects Utah’s beautiful river systems, offering travelers a unique experience as they pass through. The vibrant, water-inspired visuals give the tunnel a sense of place that resonates with both locals and visitors, underscoring the connection between the airport and Utah’s natural beauty.
In addition to the tunnel, a special feature connects the airport’s design to Utah’s history. A life-sized replica of Allosaurus, Utah’s state fossil, now stands proudly in the airport. This is more than just a decorative piece; it reflects a commitment to incorporating elements of local culture into the project.
This installation is especially meaningful, as it not only highlights Utah’s rich history but also our own, bringing together two key projects completed by our teams—the airport and the Natural History Museum—showcasing how our efforts have come full circle in a way that celebrates both spaces.
“Finding a prominent spot for the Allosaurus allowed us to connect the project to Utah’s rich history and the Natural History Museum,&#8221; said Leon Nelson, Vice President. &#8220;It’s especially meaningful to incorporate something so unique into the airport and have Big-D play a role in adding this local touch.”
Another standout feature is the installation of a restored world map that had long been part of the original airport terminal. The map, which holds a special place in the airport’s history, has been carefully restored and reinstalled in the new terminal. It’s a reminder of how the airport connects Utah to the world and how our work honors the past while building for the future.
“The culmination of two years of hard work, coordination, and teamwork is what you see here today,&#8221; said Park Madsen, Senior Superintendent. &#8220;I’m proud of everyone who put in their time and dedication over the last two years. It’s a testament to what we can accomplish when we work together toward a common goal.”
Beyond the tunnel and art installations, this phase also introduces new concessions, offering passengers a mix of local and national dining and retail options. These additions not only elevate the passenger experience but also solidify the airport&#8217;s status as a leading hub in global travel. The new concessions reflect the airport’s focus on catering to both the needs of travelers and the local community.
We take great pride in our HDJV team in this transformative project. This success is a direct reflection of the dedication and expertise of our teams. Phase 3 stands as a clear example of how we continue to deliver excellence on a large scale.
As we look ahead to future phases, we remain committed to maintaining the same high standards of quality, innovation, and teamwork that have brought us this far. We’re excited to see how this project will continue to enhance the Salt Lake City International Airport and leave a lasting impact on both travelers and the community.

Big-D Construction has taken a meaningful step forward in our commitment to fostering a culture of kindness, officially becoming a Certified Business of Kindness through our partnership with One Kind Act a Day. This recognition was cemented during a special proclamation signing ceremony, marking a pivotal moment in our shared mission to make kindness a defining principle of our workplace and industry.
The proclamation signing brought together both Big-D and One Kind Act a Day leadership, and team members from both organizations to celebrate our commitment to kindness. CEO Cory Moore signed the proclamation on behalf of Big-D, reaffirming our dedication to fostering a workplace culture where kindness is not only valued but actively practiced.
&#8220;As an organization, we know that the legacy we leave is more than the buildings we construct—it’s the kindness we show along the way,&#8221; said Cory. &#8220;We are proud to be a certified Business of Kindness and honored to partner with One Kind Act a Day in making kindness a cornerstone of everything we do.&#8221;
Big-D was recognized for making kindness a core part of our culture, from supporting our teams to strengthening the communities we serve.
“Big-D has cultivated an environment where employees feel valued and supported, understanding that kindness begins within,” said Curtis Bennett, One Kind Act a Day Executive Director.
“From fostering collaboration and respect to prioritizing employee well-being, Big-D makes it clear their people are at the heart of their success,” he said. &#8220;What’s especially remarkable is how Big-D’s leadership recognizes that kindness isn’t just a feel-good concept—it’s good business. It drives collaboration, builds trust, and strengthens relationships, creating a culture that resonates with employees, partners, and communities alike.&#8221;
The proclamation signing solidifies Big-D’s long-standing commitment to building not just great projects but a lasting culture of kindness. With this certification, we look forward to deepening our impact alongside One Kind Act a Day, ensuring kindness remains at the heart of how we work, lead, and serve our communities.
Together, we are proving that small acts of kindness can make a big impact, one project, one interaction, and one kind act at a time.
Take the Kindness Pledge:
Make kindness part of your day-to-day! Take the pledge and start spreading positivity within Big-D and beyond.

As our Week of Giving has officially come to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible efforts made by the Big-D team and celebrate the difference we’ve made together. Your generosity and commitment to supporting the American Heart Association have been truly inspiring.
We are thrilled to announce that we raised an impressive $25,925.79, surpassing our original goal of $20,000! Even more exciting, Big-D Companies has matched the amount raised up to $20,000, bringing our grand total to $45,925.79. This incredible achievement shows the power of our combined efforts and our dedication to supporting heart health. Every dollar raised will go directly toward funding life-saving research and community initiatives through the American Heart Association.
Over the course of last week, we saw amazing participation from employees across all business units, with more than 150 individuals taking part in walks and other activities to raise awareness for heart health. Each step taken and every donation made has helped us create a lasting impact.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to every employee who contributed, whether by walking, donating, or spreading awareness. Special recognition goes out to the following business units for their outstanding contributions:

Throughout the week, we saw some inspiring moments that truly captured the heart of our campaign. Big-D Signature Park City partnered with UDOT for a walk and highway cleanup, and Big-D Logistics donated canned goods to Feeding America. These are just a few of the many highlights from this weekend.
“Big-D Companies has always been a strong advocate for employee wellness, and their partnership with the American Heart Association truly reflects that commitment,&#8221; said JaNeal Shaw, Idaho Falls Project and Business Development Administrator. &#8220;The walks were a great reminder that healthy living is about more than just daily exercise. It&#8217;s about fostering healthy relationships, making smart nutritional choices, and building habits that support overall well-being.&#8221;
This past week was a powerful reminder of what we can accomplish when we come together. Thank you once again to everyone who participated and made this campaign such a success. The impact we’ve made will ripple out into our communities, helping improve lives and raise awareness for heart health.
Let’s continue this spirit of giving as we look forward to future opportunities to make a difference together!

Big-D Midwest is always thinking of ways to better their community in BIG ways and in small. Each year they partner with a local non-profit, Hearts &amp; Hammers, to volunteer for their annual Day of Service. With the office and field team in attendance, they paint, landscape, repair siding, clean out garages and even repair wheelchair ramps.
Hearts &amp; Hammers puts Big-D Midwest in touch with owners who need their assistance to restore their homes. Sharon was a previous homeowner and said, “I am just so thankful for the work that Big-D Construction did on my house. It took such a weight off my shoulders.”
Employee Jesse Sherman has been spearheading this collaboration for the last few years. He says, “It feels so good to give back to our community and have the opportunity to put my skills to use.”
The Big-D Midwest team is so grateful to Hearts &amp; Hammers for their continued partnership, and to their employees for always being willing to help their community.

One, two, three, jump! And jump they do into the frosty depths of an ice-cold lake, all for a good cause. Big-D Midwest annually raises money for Special Olympics at the Polar Plunge event.
Special Olympics Minnesota is helping to create a world that accepts and welcomes every single person regardless of ability or disability. The Polar Plunge is the biggest fundraiser for Special Olympics Minnesota. All funds raised by Plungers help Special Olympics Minnesota provide year-round training and services to thousands of athletes with intellectual disabilities across the state.
“I have done the plunge in the past and love the opportunity to do something out of the box that supports a great cause,” said Jesse. “I was nervous about the colder than expected weather, but afterwards I felt invigorated. It was totally worth the ice-cold experience. Happy to have done it with the Big-D team and I would do it again!”

This phrase holds two meanings for what we are trying to collectively accomplish as the most sought-after construction companies in the business.
“Here for Good” means being present in our communities for good causes.
“Here for Good” also means we are here to stay and build up our communities through charitable efforts.
Our first ever Week of Giving showed us that we can be “Here for Good” in every sense.
Thanks to all of our associates, friends, and families, who collectively donated $21,650 dollars during our inaugural Week of Giving—an amount we will match at the company level. Beyond the money donated, our team members across the country volunteered at local food banks and donated to food drives to support Feeding America and their mission to end hunger.

We had two associates from Big-D Construction participate in the State Capitol Day by advocating for specific bills that have an impact on mental health and suicide prevention.

Two Big-D Construction associates recently participated in Utah’s State Capitol Day, advocating for legislation focused on mental health and suicide prevention. Standing alongside partners from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), LiveOn, and SafeUT, they helped amplify the importance of these critical issues.
During the event, they met with Senator Daniel Thatcher, a key figure behind SB 175—the legislation that established Utah’s suicide crisis line. 
“Suicide deeply affects the construction industry, which is why it’s vital for us to speak up,” shared one associate. “We wore our Big-D vests proudly, but we were there representing the entire industry.”
Big-D encourages everyone to take action, support mental health initiatives, and be part of the change—because every voice matters.

Big-D Companies strives to be engaged within communities. Part of who we are and how we do business is giving back and today we had the opportunity to present a check with @agcutah to the Utah Food Bank.
Our COO at Big-D Companies, Troy Thompson, recently served as a Chairman on the AGC of Utah Board. He wanted the AGC to consider donating to the @utahfoodbank organization.
Today the Utah Foodbank was presented a spectacular donation. The check was written for nearly $36,000, which will provide about 161,000 meals.
We are grateful for the opportunity that we have to interact and donate to great causes within our communities.

In partnership with the Associated Builders and Contractors, Utah Chapter, Big-D Construction spent annual time with Utah Royal Kids of greater Salt Lake.
A religious organization, Utah Royal Kids exists to provide opportunities for children in the foster care system by creating positive, life-changing moments for innocent children who have been victims of neglect, abuse, and abandonment.
With support from ABC members, including Big-D Construction, children were presented with clothes, toys, fun activities, and food, including sweet treats from the Big-D ice cream truck. In return, our Big-D family members who volunteered their time, along with other ABC members, received gratitude, a fun-filled program the children prepared, and an opportunity to give back to the community.
“Participating in the Royal Kids event is truly a win-win for both the kids and ABC members. It is both humbling and gratifying to see the kids’ faces light up upon receiving ice cream and other gifts donated by supporters like Big-D, and I am grateful to be a part of a company that believes in giving back,” said Jim Allison, Big-D Salt Lake Vice President, and ABC Board Member.

A day of giving to benefit the 2022 Special Olympics turned into much more after Big-D Midwest purchased sub sandwiches for their team and discovered the cause unwrapped a few personal connections. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
“My son Luke is 30 years old. He has a cognitive impairment; he was born six weeks early, and his lungs weren’t developed, which caused oxygen deprivation in his brain. He started doing the special Olympics when he was 11-years-old. He excels at sports, and he loves doing it!” said Sr. Superintendent Patrick Rodgers for Big-D Midwest.
Each year participating Jersey Mike’s Subs donates 100% of their daily profits to benefit the Special Olympics USA Games and Special Olympics state Programs. Nationwide, a full day of sales brings in an estimated $10 million – to charity. This year, Big-D Midwest jumped in on the national fundraiser and sent a companywide email treating associates to lunch.
“It touched me that Big-D would offer all of us sandwiches for this event Jersey Mike’s puts on and I just want to say thank you from me and my son because it helps him continue going on,” said Rodgers who has been with Big-D Midwest for four years. Throughout his 38-year construction career, Rodgers worked hard to care for and create a comfortable life for his son and the Special Olympics brought out a passion in Luke for floor hockey, baseball, and basketball.
“I was a single dad, so seeing him get physical was cool, and he loves sports. It’s very exciting to watch him play!” said Rodgers.
“If you ever have a chance to witness one of the events the Special Olympics has, I highly recommend doing so. Participants, like my son Luke, look forward to every event so they can play and socialize with others. They do not know the meaning of losing!” said Rodgers.
Jersey Mikes changes their charity each year, and Big-D Midwest continues to participate and support the event.

Make-A-Wish had a lasting impression on Lauryn Greenwald and her family not too long ago, and they&#8217;ve been paying it forward ever since.
Lauryn, a Sr. Project Administrator at Big-D Construction’s St. Paul, MN office said shortly after her son Christian had been diagnosed with cancer, the foundation granted him his wish in 2016; to meet popular YouTubers “Rhett and Link.” As Lauryn puts it, the entire experience was “just awesome.”
Not only did Christian get to meet a couple of his favorite online stars, but he and his family were treated in true Hollywood fashion with a flight to Los Angeles, and limo service from the airport to their Southern California hotel. Lauryn describes it as a “cushy stay in a super fancy resort.”  The VIP treatment didn’t stop there, the family then received special passes allowing them to jump the lines on all the rides at Universal Studios like real stars! “It was just amazing,” Lauryn recalls. “It was like the best thing and my kids still talk about it today.”​​​​​​​
For Christian, the day became a cherished memory for the rest of his life until he passed away in 2018. To pay it forward, and help other children have a similar experience, Lauryn’s family became involved with the Minnesota Chapter’s Walk for Wishes event.
The fundraiser, which gives participants the choice of either a 5K run or a mile-long walk, raises money for Make-A-Wish. In Christian’s honor, the family has named their fundraising team “Christian Cancer Swag,” the name Christian chose when he was the grandmaster of the event in 2017. This last month, the Christian Cancer Swag team did quite well, coming in third place for money raised this year.
As a sign of support, Big-D St. Paul, MN matched the value Lauryn and her family raised. To Lauryn, the gesture alone was priceless.
“It’s above and beyond,” said Lauryn. “I’ve never worked for any company before that has ever cared about me and supported me in my personal life. I think that’s probably pretty rare.”
Big-D St. Paul, MN office continues to support Lauryn and Make A Wish each year, and is very happy to do so.
