CSM Group honored as Top-Performing U.S. construction company by ABC

CSM Group was ranked #110 on Associated Builders and Contractors’ 2022 Top Performers list, which ranks its commercial and industrial contractor members that build long-lasting high quality construction projects, based on work hours.

As an ABC Top Performer, CSM Group demonstrated world-class safety performance by achieving STEP Platinum in ABC’s STEP Safety Management System, which makes the top-performing contractors more than six times safer than the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average, according to ABC’s Safety Performance Report.

The listings highlight contractors that have earned ABC’s Accredited Quality Contractor credential for their commitment to corporate responsibility in quality, safety, talent management—including inclusion, diversity and equity—education and community relations; those that won national Excellence in Construction,^® Safety Excellence and Inclusion, Diversity and Equity Excellence awards; and those that hold designations awarded to diverse companies to help procure work from government and private entities.

Earlier this month, CSM Group was recognized with two industry awards at the 32nd Annual National Excellence in Construction Awards, presented by Associated Builders and Contractors. Those awards included the National Safety Award of Excellence, and a National Excellence in Construction Eagle Award for the renovation of the Greenleaf Trust office building in Traverse City, Michigan.
