The Sinclair Group

What The Sinclair Group does

The Sinclair Group is a privately held, family-owned general contracting firm headquartered at 5203 N. Howard Ave. in Tampa, Florida, founded in 1994 by Herbert Sinclair Clark, Jr. and now led in its second generation by Principals Cameron Clark (Business Development and Estimating) and Graham Clark (Operations), alongside Founder Burk Clark and Project Executive Maghann Watson. The company delivers construction services through four core offerings — preconstruction, design-build, general contracting, and construction management — serving enterprise and mid-market clients across eight verticals: hospitality, industrial, residential, office, education, retail, community, and healthcare.

The firm operates with a small staff (4 leaders plus 25+ additional employees) and targets projects ranging from tenant build-outs and remodels to ground-up commercial construction, with a concentration of work in the Tampa Bay market and selective engagements outside Florida including Texas. Notable projects include a 75,782 SF Arts & Science Center at Berkeley Preparatory School, a 22,000 SF sales and distribution center for Coca-Cola Beverages Florida, and Owner's Representative work on three FMC/Orlando Health medical office buildings in Pasco County. The firm holds an Addison Mizner Award from the Institute of Classical Architecture.

The business model is project-based and quote-driven with no publicly disclosed pricing. Revenue is generated through one-time construction contracts (design-build, general contracting) and professional services fees (preconstruction, construction management / owner's representation). GTM is enterprise field sales and relationship-led, supported by a portfolio website, case studies, long-tenured client testimonials, and direct contact channels; the company highlights a high percentage of repeat clientele including 25-year-plus relationships with Grasser and Associates and 23 years with Architecture + Interior Design Collaborative.
