OFFICESPACE SUCCESS STORY

At my previous company, before using OfficeSpace, even small moves meant hunting down basic information about who sat where and what desk/meeting space we had available. With OfficeSpace, I can ‘visit’ buildings virtually to find desks and conference rooms, and partners can explore floor plans ahead of time - which actually built excitement around visiting offices. Wayfinding is simple for everyone with desks, conference rooms, restrooms, printers, and other amenities all mapped and searchable. It’s so easy to use that after trying it once, even our skeptics became fans - and I truly believe this kind of tool can make our offices more welcoming, flexible, and collaborative.

Safety Week is more than an industry event on the calendar. It is a shared commitment across construction to one clear goal, getting every person home safely every day. That message is not new to partners. It is how work is done year round. Across jobsites and offices, safety comes first in every decision, every meeting, and every conversation. Each meeting begins with a Safety Moment, and every partner is empowered to stop work if something does not feel right. Speaking up is supported and recognized as the right thing to do. Performance reflects that culture, with projects running well below the national construction incident rate. Still, the focus remains the same. The goal is zero. Safety Week provides a dedicated moment to come together, recognize that culture in action, and recommit with pride to keeping every partner safe.

Most Important Project in May? Your Mental

Your mental health is just as vital as your physical health. Each May, Mental Health Awareness Month reminds us that stress, depression, and anxiety don't just affect mood — they impact energy, sleep, and long-term well-being. Whether you're on a jobsite or in an office, this month is your reminder to pause, reset, and take care of what matters most: you.

Mental health and safety go hand-in-hand. A focused, healthy mind is essential for a safe jobsite — looking out for each other means the whole person. If you or a teammate are struggling, speak up and lean on your resources. There is strength in asking for help.

Spring Into Action Challenge (April 27 – May 30) Complete four of six wellness activities for a chance to win two $100 gift cards + 200 Vitality points. Don't wait — the challenge runs through May 30!

MILESTONE CELEBRATIONS

ASU HEALTH GROUNDBREAKING

Excitement filled Downtown Phoenix as partners came together to celebrate the groundbreaking of Arizona State University's (ASU) new ASU Health headquarters. This moment was shared alongside partners from CO Architects, DFDG Architecture, ASU, and community leaders including Governor Katie Hobbs, Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, and ASU President Michael Crow. This project will bring medical education, public health, research, and innovation into one space. The goal is clear. Support the growth of Arizona’s healthcare workforce while meeting important needs across communities in the state. By connecting medical education with engineering and technology, this facility will help prepare future healthcare partners in a more connected and forward looking way.

BAYTOWN GROUNDBREAKING

It was a big day in Baytown as partners celebrated the groundbreaking of the East Surface Water Treatment Plant Expansion. Baytown Waterworks Partners, a joint venture between McCarthy and Carollo Engineers, joined Baytown Area Water Authority and BGE Incorporated to mark this milestone. The project is a progressive design build expansion that will double the capacity of the existing plant from 6 to 12 MGD. This work will carefully expand an active facility so Baytown can continue to attract new businesses, support community growth, and deliver reliable, high quality water to the region. The team looks forward to bringing the expanded plant online and serving Baytown at its new capacity in summer 2028.

T3N2 BUILDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RUNWAY

As part of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport’s Terminal 3 expansion, partners are delivering a major airport upgrade in the middle of active flight operations, all while most travelers move through the airport without noticing the work happening overhead. Careful planning and coordination guide every step of the project. From overnight tandem crane lifts installing 22-ton steel beams to ongoing construction of the new North 2 Concourse, each activity is sequenced to keep flights, passengers, and airport operations running smoothly without interruption. The expansion will add a new six gate concourse at Terminal 3 to support growing travel demand and improve the overall passenger experience.

2026 Genuine McCarthy Enterprises Shareholders’ Event: The Future Is Bright — And We Own It Together

Thank you to everyone who joined us live in Phoenix and at watch parties across the country for our 22nd annual Shareholders’ meeting. This year’s event recapped our record-breaking performance, with continued financial gains and strong stock performance reinforcing the power of employee ownership and our collective impact on shareholder value. A strong focus for the day was seeing Vision 2028 in action, driven by the imperatives Unify, Simplify, and Amplify, and highlighted our big advancements for the Anchor Center, 02S, and AI.

One of the day’s memorable highlights was a moving tribute to two partners whose careers span generations and whose fingerprints are on some of the company's top projects and most important leaders.

Senior Superintendent Damon Yates (46 years of service, 49 in construction) started as an apprentice carpenter and worked his way to the top of his craft — helping build leaders like Ray Sedey along the way. "I've actually worked with our leaders in the field, helped develop them to be leaders," Damon said. "It's been so special for me in my career to be part of that process."

His philosophy? "The team comes first. Just helping a team grow is the most important thing. The things that you learn from the tough projects — you're going to carry that throughout your whole career. You’re going to grow from it."

Project Senior Superintendent Mike Wigness (30 years at McCarthy, 48 in construction) is a living embodiment of what it means to own the work. "Around here I never felt like a number," Mike said. "That was from day one to now. I felt appreciated — I still do."

His advice to the next generation was equally sharp: "It's not about you, it's about the team. Find the people who can do the best work and support them. Be a leader, not the boss. Nobody needs a boss just to point fingers."

To the young people in the company, Damon's message was clear: "There is so much growth out there for you and with this company. Just be patient. Give it time. You're going to get there."

Take Our Kids to Work Day 2026

This year's Take Our Kids to Work Day was another one for the books! On Wednesday, April 29th, the Southwest Partnership for Women welcomed partners, craft workers, and their families to our Innovation Craft & Workforce Center (ICWC) in Chandler for a fun-filled day that brought the magic of McCarthy to life through the eyes of the next generation of builders.

Kids got to experience firsthand what mom, dad, and their families do every day — from exploring the ICWC to diving into hands-on activities, touch-a-truck experiences, and so much more. Watching little ones in hard hats and safety vests light up at the sights and sounds of construction? Priceless.

On behalf of the Southwest Office Manager Group, we are excited to announce our Southwest Region will be piloting OfficeSpace, a modern space management tool designed to create a more dynamic and responsive If you’ve ever walked into the office unsure where to sit, struggled to find an open conference room, or wished you could sit closer to teammates you were collaborating with in the office, OfficeSpace

This event is a cherished tradition for our Southwest region — one that gives our McCarthy parents the opportunity to share their work life with their families, strengthen family bonds, and spark curiosity about the incredible careers that exist in our industry. It's a reminder of the culture we've built here: one that truly feels like family.

A huge thank you to the Southwest Partnership for Women and everyone who volunteered their time to make this day so special.

At its core, OfficeSpace is about giving our partners more flexibility and visibility in how we use our offices together. You’ll have a clearer, simpler way to find and use available workspaces—whether you need a spot between meetings

We also have some good timing on our side. Getting OfficeSpace up and running before our interns join us will give them a clear, welcoming way plug into their teams right away. We look forward to welcoming our interns staring May 11th.

DEVELOPMENT

LEARNING & Q2 ADMIN PEER GROUP

At the Q2 Admin Peer Group, partners put core values into action through a day focused on learning, connection, and engagement. The session opened with a safety moment on office ergonomics led by Marisa Flores, helping partners stay mindful of health and comfort in daily work environments. Partner spotlights from Maddy Lewis and Jen Hale highlighted dedication, growth, and the impact administrative teams make across projects and operations. The day stayed engaging and connected with Nicci Mistric and Ali Baxley serving as emcees, guiding conversations and keeping energy strong throughout the event.

SPRING COMMUNICATORS

Spring Communicators launched with strong energy as facilitators Abby Godfrey, Anna Cagle and Callie Higley guided the cohort through an engaging start to the program. Subject matter experts Ashley Cracraft and Travis Richardson led coaching focused on executive presence, helping partners build confidence and strengthen how they show up in professional settings. Leadership partners Chris Nickle, Joe Brunsman, Carlos Diaz, and Eric Fields shared real pursuit experiences, including both successes and challenges, giving the group practical lessons they can apply right away. The session delivered clear tools, real stories, and meaningful connection that set a strong foundation for the weeks ahead.

PARTNERING WITH LEGAL TO PROTECT OUR PROJECTS

Legal partners Zara Torosyan, Cameron Dunlap, and Chris Pierce supported Southwest directors with practical guidance focused on everyday project needs. The session covered when to involve Legal, how to respond to incidents, and key contract terms that require close attention. The discussion gave directors clear direction on what to watch for and how to act early to protect projects and teams

BUILDING VALUE TOGETHER WITH 02S

Project Manager, Superintendent, and Project Engineer peer groups welcomed a presentation from Matt Spinks, Chris Nally, Steve Manning, and Cody Yates focused on building awareness of 02S, one of the Vision 2028 investments. The session explained what 02S is, why it matters, and how it streamlines the way work is delivered in the field. Using examples from active and recent projects, the team showed how 02S can be used in day to day decisions, including when to engage the group, what information to provide, and how early coordination can support schedule and labor planning, reduce rework, and allow field teams to focus on the most critical tasks. The discussion also connected 02S decisions to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan. When partners proactively use 02S to deliver safer, more efficient, and more reliable projects, it benefits clients and crews while also strengthening the ESOP and the shared ownership future.

SOUTHWEST LEADERS BRINGING OUR CORE VALUES TO LIFE

Southwest leadership showed up strong in Q2 peer groups, using Leadership Update time to share important regional news while staying closely connected to what partners are experiencing on projects each day. Across groups, leaders focused on listening, asking questions, and looking for ways to remove barriers so teams can stay focused on delivering their best work. This approach was especially clear in the Design Phase Services Managers meeting, where Scott Canada and Mike Corso took time after the session to listen to concerns and ask thoughtful follow up questions in support of partner needs.

LEADING WITH THE MAP IN MIND

Regional Chief Operating Officer and session sponsor Sean Slawson kicked off the Spring Management 101 program, setting the tone for how strong managers help shape impact across the region. Learning and Development partner Vania Pacheco helped participants connect the program back to the strategic map and what it means to lead by the map at McCarthy. 24 participants completed the program with a clearer understanding of their role as people leaders, greater awareness of their leadership styles, and practical ways to use the map to guide real conversations with their teams.

DESIGN PHASE SERVICES MANAGER PEER GROUP

The Design Phase Service Manager Peer Group demonstrated what strong champion planning looks like through a diverse and high impact agenda. Shoutout to the Design Phase Service Manager peer group champions, along with all peer group champions across the Southwest, for the thoughtful preparation that shaped this quarter’s session. The group focused on quick hit project updates to share wins and lessons learned, strengthened ownership mindset through ESOP presentations, and partnered with Virtual Design and Construction to walk through the full VDC project lifecycle. This helped partners gain clarity on when and how to engage these resources more effectively.

DIRECTORS LEAN INTO HARD CONVERSATIONS AND DEVELOPMENT PLANNING

During the SW Q2 Director Peer Group, partners Mark Skidmore and Fady Avades led a session on navigating hard conversations - equipping directors with practical tools to prepare, clarify messaging, and deliver direct, respectful feedback. L&D partners Vania Pacheco and Fernanda Torres Maqueda also introduced the new Programs Catalog, giving directors a clear view of development opportunities for their teams. Together, the session reinforced Employee Manager Connection and a culture of candid feedback and continuous growth across McCarthy.

CHANGE CHAMPIONS BRING VISION 2028 TO LIFE

Southwest Change Champions are helping build a shared language and consistent approach to managing the people side of change across peer groups. Partners are being introduced to foundational change management resources, including the Prosci framework and ADKAR, which focuses on Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement. Across the region, Rachel Seymour, Mike Gonzalez, Aaron Cox, and Adam Sharp supported Director, Project Manager, and Design Phase Service Manager peer groups with sessions focused on what change management is, why it matters, and how it helps partners adopt and sustain new ways of working. Using key Prosci concepts such as the Project Change Triangle and ADKAR, the sessions emphasized the importance of strong sponsorship, modeling desired behaviors, thoughtful stakeholder engagement, and clear communication. The goal is to help teams fully adopt changes so the intended benefits are realized and lasting value is created. This work continues to support Vision 2028 by strengthening the collective change muscle, providing a consistent approach to navigating change, and improving the ability to deliver predictable, people centered outcomes for partners and clients across McCarthy.

Congratulations!

Big cheers are in order for 18 Registered Apprenticeship Program graduates across eight renewable energy projects. This journey has been built on hard work, a strong commitment to safety, and a drive to keep learning every day. Growth on these projects has come from showing up ready to improve and support fellow partners. Pride is shared in this moment. These partners have strengthened their teams and helped move each project forward.

SUPERINTENDENT PEER GROUP HIGHLIGHTS

The Superintendent Peer Group brought key priorities to life through focused conversations and practical tools for daily work. Craig Olson and Kim Heintz led a meaningful discussion on mental health, helping partners strengthen awareness and support for one another. Will Hanson and Tina Malcolmson partnered with superintendents to bring the Annual Operating Plan goal of workplans into practice through real conversation and application. Dave Alofaituli reinforced the importance of Stop Work Authority and the responsibility each partner holds to keep safety front and center on every jobsite. Mitch Terrell and Bec Striffler shared social media best practices, helping partners understand how to share McCarthy’s story in a clear and responsible way. Together, these sessions strengthened alignment around safety, planning, wellbeing, and communication across the group.

A huge thank you to our Arizona water operations team who stepped up to staff the booth throughout the conference. Your energy and enthusiasm made it one to remember.

Capping off the conference week, we hosted our fifth annual Women in Water Happy Hour in Downtown Phoenix. This milestone year brought nearly 300 women and advocates together from across Arizona, our largest turnout yet! The evening was filled with great conversation, delicious Italian food, and our fan-favorite "Totes & Toasts" custom tote bag station, where guests could personalize their bags with iron-on patches. From the first sip to the last stitch, it was a night that perfectly captured why this gathering has become such a cheished tradition in the Arizona water community.

& PARTNERSHIPS

SOUTHWEST PARTNERS ATTEND WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE

Partners from the Southwest region came together at the Women in Construction West Coast Conference in Dana Point, California for a meaningful experience focused on connection, leadership, and inspiration. The conference featured an opening keynote from partner Kamecia Mason, who set a strong tone centered on growth, opportunity, and the impact partners can make across the construction industry. Throughout the event, partners spent time soaking in coastal views and building stronger relationships through team building moments and shared experiences. One of the most memorable highlights was an inspiring keynote delivered by a group of teen Girl Scouts, who shared how they are already stepping into leadership roles and shaping their generation.

BRINGING ARIZONA’S WATER STORY TO WASHINGTON DC

Water partners Jaren Murphy, Cal Aboud, and Michaela Rempkowski joined the Arizona Water delegation at DC Water Week 2026 and share Arizona’s water story directly with national policy makers. Alongside partners from the American Water Works Association, Water Environment Federation, Water Reuse Association, and Arizona Water Association, the group made a clear case for why federal investment in water infrastructure cannot wait. Arizona continues to face growing water challenges. The Colorado River is shrinking, basins are under stress, and the state remains one of the fastest growing in the country. At the same time, solutions are already available, including advanced water purification and expanded reuse strategies. Scaling these solutions will require strong policy support and sustained funding, which depends on the water community showing up together and speaking with one voice.

RIOREIMAGINED CLEAN UP BRINGS PARTNERS TOGETHER

Water partners spent time volunteering at the RioReimagined Salt River clean up with the City of Phoenix. Days like this are a reminder that the success for our community extends far beyond projects. It is about showing up protecting shared environments, and taking an active role in shaping a better future. The experience included connecting with community partners and engaging in meaningful conversations around stewardship, advocacy, and education. It reinforced the impact that collective action can have when people come together with a shared purpose.

BUILD BETTER FUTURESCARPENTERS UNION EVENT

Support was strong at the Carpenters Local 1912 inaugural Career Connections Build Better Futures event. Partners Kevin Maas, Pat Marshall, and Amber Shepard spent time with graduating high school seniors as they demonstrated their skills. Each station gave these future partners a chance to learn, build, and connect with industry partners to uncover potential next steps in their careers. Conversations throughout the day focused on opportunity and growth through apprenticeship. Several standout future partners are already top of mind for hiring in May 2026.

HEART WALK
