What Dragados USA, Inc. does
Dragados USA, Inc. is a New York-headquartered, privately held infrastructure construction company that operates under the FlatironDragados brand as part of Spain-based ACS Group, one of the world's leading infrastructure conglomerates. Founded in 2005, the firm operates through wholly-owned subsidiaries FlatironDragados USA and FlatironDragados Canada, delivering large-scale civil infrastructure across the United States and Canada. Reported combined annual revenue is greater than $7B with a $17.8B+ border backlog.
The company delivers ten core service lines: aviation, bridges, dams and reservoirs, highways and roads, large complex projects, marine works, rail and transit, resiliency protection, tunneling and underground works, and water and wastewater treatment. Underlying capability is conventional infrastructure construction and engineering — heavy civil works, tunneling, marine construction, bridge erection, and treatment facility delivery — rather than a software or platform architecture. Customer engagement is enterprise field sales: direct bidding with federal, state, provincial, and local government agencies as well as private sector clients via competitive procurement processes.
The business model is professional services on multi-year awarded contracts. Revenue is recognized through project execution with contract values determined by competitive bids against public RFPs and private tender processes. The primary customer segments are government agencies (federal, state, and local) for transportation, water, and resiliency infrastructure, and private sector clients for port facilities, private rail, and industrial water treatment. The firm employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people and accesses the financial and bonding resources of ACS Group to underwrite mega-project work.
