What Pomerleau does

Pomerleau is a privately held Canadian general contractor founded in 1964 (celebrating 60 years of operations in 2026) and headquartered in Saint-Georges, Quebec, with regional offices in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Halifax, and Levis. The company delivers large-scale construction services across buildings (commercial, residential, institutional, education, healthcare, industrial, cultural), civil and infrastructure works (ports, marine, transport, energy, urban infrastructure, water and wastewater), and specialized sectors including data centers and defense construction. It serves federal, provincial, and municipal government clients alongside private commercial and industrial developers, executing projects ranging from $1.5 million to over $1 billion through competitive bidding and alternative delivery models such as Integrated Project Delivery and P3s.

The company generates revenue as a general construction contractor on a project-by-project basis, with no recurring software or licensing model. The revenue model is project-based, won through direct enterprise field-sales pursuit of public and institutional clients. Notable contract wins include a $1.8 billion healthcare campus redevelopment for Weeneebayko Area Health Authority, a $609 million Port of Montreal design-build contract via the CTCGP consortium with Aecon, and a $198 million Ontario Place parking garage. The company operates through subsidiaries including ITC Construction Group (Western Canada), Farmer Construction (British Columbia, via ITC), Pomerleau Capital Inc. (a 50/50 real estate JV with Dream Office REIT), and Pomerleau Healthcare Partners Inc., and has received $200 million CAD in cumulative equity investment from Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ) to fund national expansion.

Pomerleau differentiates on a self-performed work model, a proprietary PX3 training ecosystem delivering over 35,000 hours of training annually, AI/data/robotics integration across more than 200 active project sites, and a 60-year operational track record. The company reports a workforce of 5,000+ full-time employees and approximately 20,000 daily workers on project sites. Recognitions include 20 consecutive years as a Canada's Best Managed Companies honoree with Platinum Club status, six consecutive years on Canada's Top 100 Employers (as of 2026), and recurring inclusion on Canada's Top Employers for Young People and Canada's Greenest Employers lists.
