What KPRS Construction Services, Inc. does

KPRS Construction Services is a privately held, full-service general contractor headquartered in Brea, California, delivering ground-up construction, tenant improvements, design-build, preconstruction, and construction management services across nine market sectors: office, residential (multifamily, affordable, senior, hospitality), tenant improvements, industrial/logistics, public works, parks and stadiums, retail, medical, and infrastructure. The firm operates through seven regional offices spanning Southern California (Orange County, Los Angeles, Culver City, San Diego), Northern California, Hawaii (KPRS Hawaii), and Dallas, with a project base concentrated in the Western U.S.

The company's technical stack centers on VDC and BIM applied to every project phase, complemented by a Site Scan for ArcGIS drone program with licensed pilots for orthomosaic imaging and clash detection, Procore as the unified project management platform, and innovative construction methods such as BubbleDeck hollow concrete slabs and ConXtech modular steel. A dedicated safety program, structured prequalification of subcontractors through TradeTapp, and integrations with Avetta for real-time safety compliance underpin execution.

KPRS generates revenue primarily through project-based construction contracts and general contracting fees, acquired via a relationship-driven, sales-led motion targeting real estate developers, institutional owners, healthcare systems, and corporate tenants. The customer base spans enterprise developers (Tishman Speyer, Hackman Capital, CT Realty, IDS Real Estate, LPC West, AMLI Residential, Meta Housing) and corporate end-users (L'Oreal, Beyond Meat, Yamaha, Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, iRhythm Technologies, Aegis Living). Founded around 2003 by Joel Stensby, Paul Kristedja, and Nolan Yasuhara, KPRS has grown to nearly 300 employees serving more than 10 distinct market types, with multifamily estimated at roughly one-third of volume and industrial/logistics as a second major pillar.
