TRAC Builders

What TRAC Builders does

TRAC Builders, Inc. is a privately held commercial general contracting, construction management, and design-build firm founded in 1995 by William (Bill) Tracey and headquartered in North Attleboro, Massachusetts, with a regional office in Providence, Rhode Island and a warehouse/fabrication facility in Attleboro, Massachusetts. The firm delivers projects as general contractor, construction manager, and design-builder across seven market sectors — Transportation & Aviation, Multifamily, Academic, Cultural & Civic, Historic Restoration & Adaptive Reuse, Healthcare, and Corporate & Commercial — serving public-sector, institutional, nonprofit, and private developer clients throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Notable engagements include work for the MBTA, Massport (Boston Logan and Flynn Cruiseport), Brown University, the University of Rhode Island, Crossroads Rhode Island, Lifespan/Brown University Health, City of Cambridge, City of Worcester, and multiple airport commissions, as well as historic landmarks such as the Brighton Municipal Courthouse, the MVCMA Tabernacle in Oak Bluffs, and Cambridge City Hall.

The company's delivery model combines traditional general contracting with an in-house self-performance capability covering concrete, demolition, framing, carpentry, and specialty historic trades, allowing TRAC to control schedule, quality, and cost on key scopes. Revenue is generated through project-based, milestone-billed construction contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated per engagement. Customer acquisition is primarily relationship-driven, combining repeat business, direct outreach to public agencies and developers, and competitive bidding on public-sector solicitations. Marketing is anchored by a detailed corporate website portfolio, owner-story testimonial videos, LinkedIn presence, and earned media through preservation and construction industry awards (AIA, ABC, Preservation Massachusetts, Faith & Form), reinforced by deep staff participation in industry associations (AIA, CSI, ABC, SMPS, NAWIC, Preservation Massachusetts).

The firm holds multiple credentials and certifications across its team, including OSHA 30, LEED, Massachusetts Construction Supervisor Licenses, and CSP credentials, and has secured LEED Silver (URI Butterfield) and LEED for Homes Gold (Kingstown Crossings) certifications on delivered projects. Ownership remains founder-led with no disclosed outside investors, parent company, or changes in control. The company does not disclose revenue, headcount, or backlog, and operates within a single domestic two-state geography with no foreign operations.

Core offering

TRAC Builders is a commercial general contracting and construction management firm delivering projects across Massachusetts and Rhode Island as general contractor, construction manager, and design-builder. The firm provides turnkey delivery — preconstruction, estimating, self-performance of key trades, and project management through closeout — across seven market sectors including transportation, multifamily, academic, cultural and civic, historic, healthcare, and corporate projects.

Product overview

TRAC Builders delivers its offering as an integrated set of construction services rather than a software product, organized around four core delivery capabilities — General Contracting, Construction Management, Design-Build, and Preconstruction & Development — supported by in-house Self-Performance Services that handle carpentry, concrete, and structural scopes directly. These core capabilities are deployed across seven market-sector service lines: Transportation & Aviation, Multifamily & Mixed-Use Residential, Academic, Cultural & Civic, Historic Restoration & Adaptive Reuse, Healthcare, and Corporate & Commercial construction, allowing clients to engage TRAC for individual project types or for multi-sector programs throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
