What Kast Construction does

KAST Construction is a privately held Florida-based general contractor and construction manager founded in 1998 and headquartered in West Palm Beach, with additional regional offices in Coral Gables/Miami and Tampa. The company delivers large-scale construction management services — averaging approximately $90 million per project with several projects exceeding $250 million — across nine vertical categories: multi-family, condominium, mixed-use, hospitality, commercial/office, municipal/education, arts/entertainment/non-profit, senior living/healthcare, and country club. To date, the firm has completed more than 8,500 hotel keys, 4,782 condominium units, and 8,192 multi-family units, with a stated 100% repeat-client track record concentrated in Florida.

The company's technical capabilities center on a Virtual Design Construction (VDC) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) function applied to nearly all projects for clash detection and 3D coordination, complemented by a vertically integrated internal Quality Control department, LEED Accredited Professionals on staff, and the proprietary COMPASS subcontractor prequalification and bidding platform. Safety performance is a documented strength, with an Experience Modification Rate of 0.65 and MOD rate of 0.74 — both materially below the 1.0 industry baseline — supporting lower insurance costs and reduced client risk exposure.

KAST operates a project-based, fee-driven revenue model as a construction manager and general contractor, with no public pricing tiers and revenue generated primarily through direct enterprise engagement with developers, property owners, and branded hospitality operators. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with target segments including luxury residential developers, hospitality brands, multi-family developers, and mixed-use developers; named references include Boca West Country Club, Spodak Dental Group, and Tulepan Management. Geographic scope is regional to Florida, and the firm is led by CEO Mike Neal and President/COO Sean Ouellette, with a broader executive bench of division managers and regional VPs across the three offices.
