Ceco Concrete Construction & The Conco Companies Join ACI PRO

PRO: An ACI Center of Excellence for Advancing Productivity has announced that Ceco Concrete Construction, LLC, and The Conco Companies have joined as the organization's first members. 

“I’m delighted that PRO's early members are long-established, highly successful, well-respected concrete contractors with strong histories of design assist collaboration,” says Phil Diekemper, Executive Director, PRO.  “PRO will seek to highlight their success stories as models for improving construction productivity while adding value to projects and their owners.”

Ceco is one of the nation's leaders in cast-in-place concrete construction. Originating in 1912 in Omaha, NE, Ceco is now headquartered in Kansas City, MO, with 19 locations across the country.

The Conco Companies began in 1959 and are headquartered in the Bay Area in California, serving a wide range of areas on the West Coast, while also performing shotcrete and rebar installations. Ceco’s and Conco’s innovative reputations will be upheld through their membership with PRO.

Previously, Diekemper stated that the organization is seeking companies that share PRO’s vision - the innovative companies that drive change from across the concrete construction industry in general and subcontractors that self-performed concrete, material suppliers, reinforcing fabricators, reinforcing installers, design engineers, or even project architects or owners.

PRO and its members aim to advance new technologies and processes that improve concrete construction productivity beyond historic levels. To learn more about PRO and to get involved, visit www.concreteproductivity.org.
