PCL Construction, ranked 13th on ENR’s 2023 Top 400 Contractors List, is a leading North American contractor working across buildings, civil, and industrial sectors. By leveraging strong industry relationships and self-performing tasks like layout, PCL ensures schedule certainty and gains a strategic edge.
According to Deron Brown, president and COO of PCL’s US operations, the past year offered significant opportunities despite challenges like supply chain issues, inflation, and labor shortages. PCL uses robotic total stations for layout tasks, streamlining efficiency compared to manual methods, though intricate designs still pose some delays.
