Building the Future with an Innovative Approach to AEC Excellence<\/h1>\n

Learn how Haskell’s diverse, global team leads the AEC industry by continuously breaking new ground to deliver unmatched value and certainty for clients.<\/h4>\n

Walk the halls of Haskell\u2019s Jacksonville, Florida, headquarters and you\u2019ll see all the signs of a thriving design and construction company, as drafting tables and complex computerized models juxtapose with hardhats and transit levels.<\/p>\n

To know Haskell is to know the spirit of innovation and the assurance of certainty that lie beneath. To know Haskell is to understand unrivaled client care, unparalleled high quality and global scale. But to really know Haskell is to know how deeply its more than 2,200 team members care for their customers, their colleagues and their communities.<\/p>\n

\"Preston<\/p>\n

From its first commercial construction contract, Haskell has been breaking new ground in the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) world to create the greatest possible value for project owners. Design-build project delivery didn\u2019t exist as a discipline in 1967, when The Preston H. Haskell Company<\/a> contracted to build a 53,160-square-foot manufacturing plant for Covington Industries. Haskell\u2019s newly formed team broke the mold, however, by producing the entire project, from concept to commissioning.<\/p>\n

The idea was simple and elegant. A design-build<\/a> contractor could act as a single point of contact \u2013 and a single party accountable to the project owner \u2013 providing clients certainty of outcome in budget, schedule and performance. Preston Haskell was an early proponent and became a leading evangelist<\/a> for the design-build delivery method, which now accounts for nearly 50% of all construction spending in the United States.<\/p>\n

In the more than almost six decades since, Haskell has shortened its name but grown in myriad ways.<\/p>\n

Driven by its innovative spirit and relentless pursuit of optimal customer service, Haskell continued to lead the industry in adopting new project delivery methods. Its unique Permanent Craft Employee (PCE)<\/a> program staffed crews that pioneered tilt-wall construction for greater efficiency. Its leadership team leveraged organic growth and acquisition to assemble the process, packaging and material handling expertise to put Haskell on the cutting edge of the turnkey Engineer Procure Construct (EPC)<\/a> method of delivering solutions for manufacturing customers. Today, through Dysruptek<\/a>, its innovation-focused venture capital arm, Haskell is scouting, piloting and investing in emerging technologies that stretch the status quo to provide clients with the greatest possible competitive advantage.<\/p>\n

\"Jim<\/a>\u201cThe foundation of Haskell is fantastic,\u201d said Haskell Chairman, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and President Jim O\u2019Leary<\/a>. \u201cYou\u2019re talking about a place where you have high-quality top people in our industry; a place where you have one of the best reputations in the industry; a place where you have operational excellence and systems and everything in place to do well; a place where you have a broad customer base that is happy with what you’re doing. So, it’s all there; it\u2019s all been there. It\u2019s a foundation we can continue to build on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Build, O\u2019Leary and his team have done. Haskell has doubled its workforce and revenue since August 2018, when he became just the third CEO in the company\u2019s history. More importantly, it has further laid a foundation for the future.<\/p>\n

A Culture of Inclusion<\/h4>\n

O\u2019Leary expanded the company\u2019s top management, leveraging what had been the three-person Office of the Chief Executive to the eight-member Executive Leadership Team (ELT). Those eight leaders then thoughtfully created a strategic plan they called Haskell 2025, a set of goals, some operational and some aspirational, and a set of dynamic key initiatives designed to best serve clients and their 2,200-plus employee-owners alike. Indeed, the six pillars of Haskell 2025 start with a pledge to employees, who are known as team members:<\/p>\n
