Our Construction and Design-Build Project Experience
Since its founding in 1913, Carl A. Nelson & Company has become adept in a variety of project delivery methods. We are a:
-
Design-Builder;
-
Construction Manager (Agency and at-Risk/as-Constructor);
-
And we have been a General Contractor since the company's very beginning.
Our efforts are supported across these delivery methods, during pre-construction and construction, by code review, Building Information Modeling (BIM) and other services from Nelson Design, Inc. We also offer routine industrial construction and physical plant maintenance in operating facilities from our Nelson Plant Services division. On design-build, construction management at-risk and general contracting projects, we work as a self-performing builder, tackling much of the work with our own crews.
And as our portfolio shows, CANCO's century and more of experience includes construction projects in a range of market segments and built across Iowa, throughout the Midwest and all around the United States.
