What Parrish Construction Group does

Parrish Construction Group is a privately held, Georgia-based general contractor and construction management firm founded in 1995 by Dave Cyr. The firm delivers commercial construction services across five primary verticals — Education, Healthcare, Industrial, Municipal/Government, and Water/Wastewater — through multiple delivery methods including Design-Build, Construction Management at Risk, and traditional General Contracting. It operates three offices across Georgia (Perry headquarters, Atlanta/Alpharetta, Savannah) with a headcount between 101 and 250 employees.

The company's service portfolio spans the full project lifecycle, anchored by four core service lines: Master Planning, Preconstruction, VDC/BIM (Virtual Design and Construction/Building Information Modeling), and Facility Planning. Parrish claims a differentiated in-house facility planning capability, including a retired state facility consultant described as unique among Georgia construction firms. Notable project work includes the $98.7 million Newnan High School reconstruction following a 2021 tornado (with a $21.5 million gymnasium component), a $20 million, 80,000 SF North Houston Sports Complex for the City of Warner Robins, a 224,800 SF primary school for Cartersville City Schools, and large industrial and healthcare facilities for clients such as Graphic Packaging, Flint Energies, and Crisp Regional Hospital.

Parrish generates revenue through fixed-price and cost-plus construction contracts awarded via competitive bidding, RFP responses, and repeat engagements with public and private clients. The firm reports an 89% client return rate and reports it has invested "millions" of man hours in client projects. Subcontractor execution is supported through a partnership with BuildingConnected for trade-partner qualification and management. The company is founder-controlled (Dave Cyr remains CEO), privately held with no disclosed external funding, institutional investors, or acquisition history.
