Landry/French Construction Company

What Landry/French Construction Company does

Landry/French Construction Company is a US-based, full-service commercial construction firm founded in 2010 and headquartered in Scarborough, Maine. The company delivers construction management, design/build, general contracting, pre-construction, MEP coordination, historic preservation, and BIM/VDC-enabled project execution. Since becoming a 100% employee-owned ESOP in 2016, the firm has scaled from $15.2M in first-year revenue (2011) to ENR Top 400 / ENR East Top Contractor status, with a stated public goal of $1B in revenue by 2030.

The firm's core technology stack centers on Building Information Modeling and Virtual Design and Construction (BIM/VDC) for clash detection and pre-construction coordination, paired with Lean Construction methodology supported by the TouchPlan platform. These capabilities are positioned to reduce rework and field change orders on complex projects, including healthcare facilities (e.g., 250,000 SF New England Cancer Specialists at Rock Row, 68,000 SF VA Community-Based Outpatient Clinic), higher-education work (e.g., 112,000 SF Colby College Mayflower Hill Residence Hall in mass timber, Florida Tech's L3Harris Center for Science and Engineering), and K-12 (e.g., $132M Windham-Raymond Middle School, the largest school construction project in Maine).

Landry/French generates revenue through project-based professional services fees, acquired through direct client engagement, competitive bidding (Design-Bid-Build), and negotiated design-build contracts. The customer base spans healthcare systems, higher-education institutions, K-12, civic/government, commercial real estate, industrial manufacturers, and automotive dealerships. Geographic footprint expanded in 2024 via the acquisition of Melbourne, Florida-based MH Williams Construction Group and was further extended in February 2026 with the opening of a St. Petersburg, Florida regional office under Regional EVP Scott Hutchison, establishing a dual Maine-Florida operating model.

Direct peers

• Walsh Construction: Family-owned national GC/CM with substantial healthcare, education, and commercial building work. Comparable in being privately held and relationship-driven, with a similarly strong institutional client focus.
• Shawmut Design and Construction: Privately held national CM and design-build firm with strong healthcare, higher education, and commercial portfolios. Closely comparable in size, private/employee-influenced culture, and reliance on technology-enabled pre-construction to win complex institutional work.
• Suffolk Construction: One of the largest private U.S. commercial construction managers, with deep healthcare, higher education, and life-sciences practices. Highly comparable to Landry/French in delivery model (CM, design-build, general contracting), technology adoption (BIM/VDC), and target institutional clients; Landry/French's COO Denis Garriepy was a former VP of Operations at Suffolk.
• Barton Malow Company: Employee-influenced (ESOP) construction manager with strong healthcare, higher education, energy, and industrial practices. Comparable in ESOP-led culture, technology adoption, and emphasis on safety awards, though larger and more geographically diversified.
• Consigli Construction Co. Employee-owned (ESOP) New England-based CM with healthcare, higher education, and life-sciences practices. Direct peer given the shared ESOP ownership model, regional Northeast base, and comparable mix of institutional clients and project types.

Broad incumbents

• Turner Construction Company: Largest U.S. nonresidential building contractor and a regular competitor for the same healthcare, higher education, and civic projects Landry/French pursues. Overlaps heavily on delivery model and client base but operates at national scale.
• Whiting-Turner Contracting Company: Large national CM/general contractor with extensive healthcare, higher education, and industrial work. Comparable in delivery model and target verticals, but Whiting-Turner is a much larger, multi-regional incumbent that competes on the same institutional RFPs.
• Gilbane Building Company: Large, privately held U.S. construction manager with major healthcare, higher education, and civic practices and offices across the Northeast and Southeast. Overlaps with Landry/French on CM delivery and institutional client base but operates at materially larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
• Skanska USA: U.S. arm of a global construction group with large healthcare, higher education, and civil practices. Competes for the same large institutional projects but at significantly greater scale and with international backing.
• AECOM (Construction Services): Global infrastructure and construction services firm with a sizable U.S. buildings practice covering healthcare, education, and commercial work. Overlaps on large institutional CM pursuits but operates across a much broader portfolio of services and geographies.
