Ross Group

What Ross Group does

Ross Group, formally The Ross Group Construction Corporation, is a privately held, family-owned construction and engineering firm headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, founded in 1979 by Jesse Ross as J. Ross Acoustics and Drywall and incorporated under its current name in 1996 when Warren Ross joined. The firm operates through four wholly owned divisions — Ross Group Engineering (design services for oil & gas, petrochemical, refining, aerospace/defense, and energy transition projects), Ross Group Industrial (industrial facility construction for gas processing, petrochemical, and aerospace testing facilities), Ross Group Construction (general contracting across aviation, government, healthcare, education, hospitality, and commercial sectors), and Ross Group Development (property development) — providing integrated development-to-completion project delivery.

Revenue is earned primarily through professional services and project-based contracts, including fixed-price and cost-plus arrangements for construction and engineering projects, with bid submissions and RFP responses managed through [email protected] and a dedicated Business Development Manager. The customer base is enterprise- and government-oriented, with disclosed projects for American Airlines, Phillips 66, the U.S. Marshal's Service, the Transportation Security Administration, Coffeyville Resources Nitrogen Fertilizers, Oklahoma State University, and several hotel and banking brands, spanning aviation, energy, defense, government, healthcare, education, hospitality, and commercial segments. Geographic reach centers on Oklahoma (Tulsa HQ and Oklahoma City office) with active projects in Texas, New Mexico, North Dakota, Kansas, Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, California, and internationally in Israel.

The company employs more than 125 people across three offices, has earned four consecutive Top Workplaces Oklahoma awards (2020-2023), holds HVMP safety recognition, and operates without external institutional capital or parent company. Its competitive position rests on specialized engineering expertise in vibro-acoustic testing, midstream oil & gas infrastructure, and energy transition design (carbon capture, hydrogen, renewable solar), combined with integrated project delivery under a single contract structure.
