What Chasse Building Team does

Chasse Building Team is a commercial general contractor founded in 2007 by Barry Chasse in Tempe, Arizona, and currently operating as a 100% teammate-owned firm under an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) branded as the Teammate Stock Ownership Plan (TSOP), a structure established in December 2021. The company delivers construction management, preconstruction, schedule management, value engineering, quality control, and warranty services across seven verticals: K-12 education, higher education, multifamily residential, municipal and government, healthcare, commercial, and nonprofit projects. Headcount has scaled from 10 original employees to more than 200 teammates across Tempe and Tucson offices, with the firm overseeing more than $425 million in annual client engagements.

Operationally, CHASSE runs on the CMiC ERP platform, which integrates accounting, project management, and field operations data into a single system to eliminate double data entry and improve workflow visibility. The firm has also developed PIMMEX-CHASSE, a proprietary safety management program built around Pre-Task Safety Plans and OSHA Focus 4 hazard controls; the company reports more than 1,000,000 hours worked with zero recordable injuries, with approximately 90% of projects completed on occupied sites. Lean construction principles are applied across project delivery, and preconstruction-phase collaboration is positioned as a core differentiator that returns budget savings to public-sector clients.

The business model is project-based commercial construction services revenue, primarily through direct sales and business development targeting Arizona school districts, municipal governments, healthcare organizations, commercial developers, and nonprofits. Projects are secured via competitive bidding for public work and direct negotiation for private clients, with relationship-driven repeat business particularly strong in K-12 and municipal segments. The firm has no external investors, parent company, or institutional ownership; Barry Chasse continues to lead the enterprise, and all eligible employees receive annual stock allocations tied to firm valuation.
