Kiewit Canada

Bruce Grewcock, Kiewit’s CEO, has steered the company to excellence since 2005. He is only the fifth person to assume leadership of the company in its modern era. Peter Kiewit, Bob Wilson, Walter Scott Jr. and Ken Stinson preceded him. In 2012, in addition to his CEO responsibilities, Grewcock was named chairman of the board.

Kiewit had 2017 revenues of $8.7 billion and consistently ranks among the top ten contractors by Engineering News-Record. We have virtually unlimited bonding capacity and are one of the few construction firms able to compete for billion-dollar mega-projects. However, our organizational system of local operating districts enables us to also take on smaller contracts.

Kiewit is one of North America’s largest and most respected construction and engineering organizations. The employee-owned company operates through a network of subsidiaries in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Nearly all construction projects are staffed by one or more owners of our company.

"Just as a rock is not shaken by a strong or sudden gust of wind, neither should we be affected by praise or success. We must not be satisfied with our past accomplishments and we should make every effort to improve and expand our operations — but only in an orderly and beneficial manner…a company cannot stand still for long — either it goes ahead or it slides back."

Peter Kiewit, 1964

Excellence. It is the foundation of everything we do. What began in 1884 with two hardworking brothers has grown into a construction, mining and engineering powerhouse.

Kiewit’s ethical, forward-thinking workforce continues to build upon the company’s reputation of safe, high-quality engineering. Consistently ranked among the top five of the Engineering News-Record Top 400 Contractors, our company is a leader in a variety of market sectors throughout North America.

As an employee-owned company, Kiewit’s assets are managed by the people who know our work best. For us, business is personal. As our own stakeholders, we are invested in every project we take on. We continuously strive to build high-quality work at the lowest cost.

Our philosophy on safety is simple: Nobody Gets Hurt. Knowing that one lapse in judgment can lead to catastrophic events, the safety of the men and women on our job sites and the community that surrounds our projects is always first.

Kiewit never stands still. Just as our founders relentlessly chased their dream, we continue to chase new and exciting opportunities.
