SWINERTON QUARTERLY Spring 2023

A CULTURE OF

OWNERSHIP

Message from the Executive Committee Historically, the Swinerton Quarterly has circulated as an internal publication, providing an avenue through which our employee‑owners from coast to coast could connect and share in our collective success. However, this Spring 2023 issue marks the first time our magazine has been released externally for our partners and clients, and we could find no better way to ring in this monumental shift than by celebrating our newest core value: ownership.

Many of our business partners, longstanding clients, and industry audiences are aware of Swinerton’s identity as a 100% employee-owned company. Employeeownership forms the foundation of our exceptional work ethic, our unmistakable drive, our sense of responsibility, and our award-winning culture. It is the bedrock upon which each of our other core values of integrity, leadership, passion, and excellence stand.

As employee-owners, we believe in supporting our people and partners, upholding the client experience, celebrating each other’s wins, and collectively creating environments for success through our passion and commitment.

Publishing the Swinerton Quarterly externally allows us to share our expertise and accomplishments with a broader audience and celebrate the achievements of our employee-owners outside of our organization.

With this new, refreshed look, we are excited to share all of the ways our people are making waves with their pride of ownership: whether it is through our notable awards, our industry expertise, the milestones we achieve in the field, our community outreach, or our employee-owners on the move.

No publication will ever truly capture all of the practical and tangible ways our people make an impact every day. However, these pages provide a glimpse into the culture and values behind our success and allow us to share our Swinerton pride with our clients and partners.

We could not be more proud of our hardworking employee-owners across our Swinerton Family of Companies. The commitment our people show to responsibly managing our relationships and our success requires hard work, grit, and humility, but it is a commitment we readily make because our pride of ownership is what allows us to deliver peace of mind.

A CULTURE OF

OWNERSHIP winerton has been a reliable and trusted building partner for 135 years. Throughout our rich history, we have lent our expertise and passion to numerous landmark projects throughout the country. Along the way, we have forged trusted relationships with our clients and industry partners and defined what it means to take ownership of our work, our company, and our culture.

Much like our industry, Swinerton has evolved greatly since our inception. However, our entrepreneurial spirit and enterprise mentality are unwavering pieces of our culture that we can trace back to our humble beginnings in 1888, when Swedish immigrant Charles Lindgren first purchased a oneway train ticket and founded the brick masonry and contracting start-up that would later become Swinerton.

The modest, family-owned company quickly grew to survive and thrive through two world wars, the Great Depression and Recession, economic uncertainties, natural disasters, and dynamic cultural movements. In 1984, after achieving

success despite the tumultuous century, Swinerton’s four shareholders sought a solution that could preserve the longevity of the legacy they had worked to build. The resulting decision created an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) and divided the shares of the four gentlemen amongst the entire company.

This marked the moment that Swinerton, after nearly 100 years of building, became a 100% employee-owned company.

an employee-owner separates from the company, such as in retirement, the value of their stock is distributed to them.

The National Center for Employee Ownership designates an employee-owned company as any organization that allows employees to own shares or offers the right to the value of company shares.

According to the Center, Swinerton is one of the largest majority employee-owned companies in the United States. Studies show that employee-ownership provides many benefits for a company, including retirement security, a shared sense of accountability, and a collective feeling of personal agency and responsibility over the direction of the business.

“You’re going to be dealing with the owners of Swinerton,” said Dave Callis, President and Chief Operating Officer of Swinerton.

“Every employee on your jobsite, whether a superintendent or a project engineer, is an owner of the company versus an employee of the company.”

Individually, employees can also be nominated to participate in direct ownership of Swinerton stock through our annual discretionary bonus program.

Of our 4,300 construction professionals, close to 20% have been voted in as direct shareholders based on a combination of years of service, company profitability, “To me, that set the tone for acting in the individual performance, and a clear best interest of our employee-owners,” demonstration of our organization’s core said Eric Foster, Swinerton Chief Executive values.

Swinerton’s commitment to employeeownership is directly connected to our strong sense of culture, our conscious use of resources, and our financial strength.

PRE FAB

N I S T R EXPE

RICA TION Benefits of Prefabrication: - Cost savings - Accelerated Speed of Construction - Enhanced Quality Control and Consistency - Improved Safety Conditions

8 | SWINERTON QUARTERLY

Prefabricated and modular construction are often stigmatized as low-end and mass-produced modes of construction.

Swinerton, however, is making great strides in changing this perception. With over 30 such projects successfully completed or currently in progress, this depth of experience positions us as experts as the demand for this type of construction continues to grow sharply.

Swinerton continuously seeks opportunities to demonstrate how the quality and subsequent benefits of prefabricated and modular construction can benefit our clients’ budget and schedule. With a recession likely looming in the near future, this will be of critical importance. Prefabrication can reduce construction costs due to the improved reliability of the construction process, its controlled environment, and reduced installation durations. Certain scopes can also be run concurrently with other construction activities to further accelerate the schedule.

Prefabrication increases the quality of construction, as it provides a more reliable finished level for each component.

Materials are built utilizing machine precision, ensuring uniformity to specified codes and standards. Prefabrication also helps address the challenges that come from a shortage of skilled craftspeople as it requires less labor in the field.

The controlled environment of the prefabrication process results in safer working conditions compared to onsite construction without competing trades, debris, and material waste in the field. It also increases safety when prefabricated systems and modular units arrive in the field for assembly.

Lowering the fall risk for workers, materials, and equipment protects field teams, the public, and surrounding structures.

Depending on each client’s needs, Swinerton’s use of prefabricated and modular construction varies significantly.

The five-story Weingart 11010 Santa Monica Boulevard Affordable Housing Development in Los Angeles, CA, fully

utilizes modular construction. The 51 modular units were prefabricated at an offsite facility 80 miles from the project site.

As direct proof of the schedule benefits, all units were set by crane in just 10 days as the building elevation grew from Level 1 to Level 5.

Swinerton’s DignityMoves Alameda Village project in Northern California is utilizing similar modular methods, but to a lesser extent per client needs. The transitional housing community will feature 47 onebedroom units, five of which will be for at-risk and homeless transitional-age youth.

The two-story building utilizes prefabricated Factory_OS modular units pre-approved by the California Department of Housing and Community Development. Read more about this project on page 15.

Incorporating prefabricated materials in a variety of scopes also helps clients achieve their unique design goals. In late 2021, Swinerton completed a new 14-story dual-branded Marriott Courtyard-Element Hotel in Atlanta with 282 guestrooms. Due to the unique combination of two different hotel brands within a single structure, the client opted for prefabricated construction.

By combining the elements of a traditional concrete structure and the prefabricated structural cold-formed metal framing bearing walls, both hotel brand standards were integrated into a single unit.

Swinerton is also meeting similar design goals for a client’s new three-story,

60,000-square-foot medical office building in Los Angeles. Atypical of most projects, Swinerton’s self-perform team is utilizing prefabrication to deliver the fully panelized interior wall framing to the site, with all partial height wall partitions prefabricated.

In conjunction with panelized interior framing, the project utilizes ConXtech structural steel, a fully bolted steel system that requires no welding and strengthens the prefabricated elements. The connections can immediately be bolted together once the material arrives onsite, which in turn increases budget and schedule efficiencies.

As further evidence of our expertise, Swinerton owns a full-service construction prefabrication facility in Riverside, CA. Spanning three acres, the facility provides in-house formwork fabrication for wall, deck, column, and specialty forms. Owning and fabricating our formwork mitigates the unknowns of market availability and the potential lack of material resources and labor due to market demand.

As new opportunities continue to arise, Swinerton is excited to be at the forefront of prefabricated and modular construction.

We look forward to demonstrating that it is viable and replicable for projects in all markets and how it can benefit each client’s unique budget, schedule, and design goals.

SWINERTON

POSITIONED TO HELP CLIEN The aviation industry is facing a unique challenge. With aging infrastructure requiring updates or complete replacement, stability, security, and communication have become paramount. Fortunately, the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) passed in 2022 can help address these needs by allocating $15 billion in infrastructure funding over five years. The BIL will “upgrade our nation’s airports…and improve U.S. competitiveness, create more and better jobs at these hubs, and reduce emissions.”1 For the first time in decades, we have the opportunity to focus on capital investments that will transform how people connect around the world. This influx of funds will go a long way toward keeping our airlines safe and secure while also growing to meet customer demands.

On March 9, the third round of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law’s airport grants was announced, releasing an additional $77 million to 49 airports nationwide2 in nearly every single city in which Swinerton is actively working on or pursuing aviation projects.

There will be a big focus on projects that are shovel‑ready. Airports are evaluating their needs lists, looking at the additional funding source that the BIL provides, and reprioritizing their projects to meet the funding criteria.

“Security and safety functions and components have become clear themes that our teams are starting to see, everything from fire and life safety systems and egress, all the way up to aircraft rescue and firefighting facilities,” said Carrie Shaeffer, Vice President and National Director of Aviation at Swinerton.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law allows companies like Swinerton opportunities to bring stability through quality workmanship backed by safety protocols that guarantee project success. Investing in modern technology is essential if airports want to remain competitive in today’s global market. Swinerton’s aviation clients’ focus has turned to a deeper level of operational readiness training where every component 10 | SWINERTON QUARTERLY

“ Collaboration between public agencies, private businesses, and local communities is essential when it comes to building a better future,” said Carrie Shaeffer, Vice President and National Director of Aviation. “We have an opportunity to ensure our infrastructure remains strong while also creating jobs throughout the aviation sector.”

NTS TAKE FLIGHT of the communication and emergency systems work 100% of the time.

“We are seeing all of our clients working to increase their capacity and efficiency in provisioning flights, which requires facilities and utilities,” Shaeffer said. “Airlines operators want people to have on-time flight departures and arrivals.” Several of Swinerton’s clients are looking for opportunities to upgrade and install new checked baggage inspection systems (CBIS), which are faster and more ergonomically designed for TSA agents and improve scanning technologies for bags.

From providing temporary relief to pinch points in airport terminals with our tenant improvement projects, to addressing the needs of our clients who are experiencing tremendous growth requiring new ground-up facilities, Swinerton has been answering the aviation industry’s call. Our teams remain invisible to passengers and ensure that operations are maintained and not disrupted, delivering the highest level of airport capacity while elevating each space.

Swinerton’s recent work at HartsfieldJackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) highlights our commitment to successful project execution without compromising the passenger experience.

ATL is the “world’s busiest and most efficient airport.” It is also Delta Air Lines’ corporate headquarters and primary hub. Swinerton developed a partnership with Delta Air Lines to help elevate their spaces to better serve their passengers and employees with upgrades to several Sky Clubs and a new In-Flight Service Lounge.

The complexity of these renovations required extensive coordination

with airport operations. Swinerton demonstrated its expertise to the airport, resulting in project wins with Atlanta Airlines Terminal Company and the city’s Department of Aviation as direct clients.

Most recently, the City of Atlanta selected Swinerton as one of four on-call Master General Contractors to execute repairs, upgrades, and renovations for projects under $10 million for the next five years.

This type of service program successfully positions Swinerton as a preferred contractor at other airports across the country, including Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Denver International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, and San Francisco International Airport.

Just four years ago, Swinerton was only pursuing aviation work in a handful of our offices. Today, our teams deliver roughly $400 million in aviation construction projects annually. We have worked at 50 airports and airfields, collaborating as a trusted partner with private operators, government agencies, and commercial airlines across the nation. From complex hangar facilities to baggage handling systems, from luxury airline lounges to passenger ticketing stations—our in-house technical expertise and selfperform resources allow us to exceed the goals of our aviation clients amid an ever-changing industry. We will continue to help our clients take flight with the funding available through the BIL. Read the full article on the Swinerton blog.
