What Hannig Construction does

Hannig Construction, Inc. is a Terre Haute, Indiana-based, privately held full-service commercial and industrial construction firm that has operated continuously since its incorporation as Shelton Hannig, Inc. on December 1, 1960 and was renamed to its present form in March 1998. From a single headquarters at 815 Swan Street, the firm serves West Central Indiana and East Central Illinois within a roughly 90-mile radius, with competitively bid projects historically extending as far south as Evansville and as far north as Lafayette. It delivers projects across at least twelve end markets — automotive, commercial, correctional, financial, food and beverage, industrial, K-12 and higher education, medical, pre-engineered metal buildings, religious, recreational, and state/federal government — through six delivery methods: design-build, general contracting, construction management, BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer), P3 (Public-Private Partnership), and competitive bid, plus post-build maintenance and architectural/engineering services.

The firm's underlying operating capability rests on self-perform trades spanning concrete work, frames/doors/hardware installation, steel erection, rough and finish carpentry, drywall and metal studs, and acoustical ceilings, which reduce subcontractor dependence on core work and provide direct quality control. It has been a union contractor since founding, and its site supervisors and superintendents hold a combined 200+ years of on-site construction experience per company disclosure. The construction technology stack is light: marketing is delivered through a Wix-hosted site with project portfolio, video, and social channels (YouTube, X, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn); competitive bidding and subcontractor coordination run through a dedicated portal (hannigbidding.com); and the firm uses standard subcontractor agreement templates with lowest-responsive-complete bidder awards. No AI/ML, API, SDK, or third-party platform integration is disclosed.

Hannig pursues a dual go-to-market: enterprise and mid-market commercial/industrial clients are reached via direct field sales and negotiated contracts, while government work is captured through required competitive public bidding processes. Pricing is project-based; preliminary budgeting is typically free, with fees applying once the work transitions to project planning, programming, or feasibility studies. Revenue ranges from two-hour time-and-material jobs to multi-year multi-million dollar expansions. Majority ownership transferred in September 2024 to sisters Meg Yargus and Anne Sheehy, with Meg Steward installed as CEO, Wes Readinger as President, and Seth Porter as Vice President; the firm obtained State of Indiana Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certification on March 17, 2025 and added Senior Project Manager/Estimator Shawn Schauber as a minority shareholder on January 30, 2026, signaling a phased transition to family-led operating control.

Products and services

• Design-Build Construction Services A project delivery method providing business owners with a single point of contact for both design and construction phases, allowing the two phases to overlap and reduce the overall project delivery schedule. Intended for commercial, industrial, and institutional clients seeking streamlined project execution.
• General Contracting Traditional construction delivery method in which Hannig acts as general contractor managing overall project coordination including materials, equipment, subcontractors, work schedules, quality control, and labor to ensure timely completion. Serves commercial, industrial, institutional, and government clients.
• Construction Management Construction manager is engaged early to oversee budget, constructability reviews, change orders, and adherence to construction documents, establishing preliminary budgets and design solutions for larger, complex projects. Targeted at owners of complex commercial, industrial, and institutional builds.
• BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) Full lifecycle delivery approach in which Hannig builds a project, operates it during an agreed period, and transfers it back to the owner, providing shared risk and optimized performance for large infrastructure projects. Suitable for government and large private owners seeking long-term infrastructure solutions.
• P3 (Public-Private Partnership) Formal agreement between government agencies and private-sector companies to deliver projects or services that benefit the public, with shared responsibilities for financing, designing, building, operating, or maintaining facilities. Targeted at public-sector clients needing infrastructure or facility delivery through shared-risk partnerships.
• Competitive Bid Design-bid project delivery method in which business owners select an architect/engineer to develop plans and specifications and then competitively bid to general contractors. Used for projects where plans and specifications are completed before construction is awarded, including public-sector competitive bidding.
• Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMB) Economical and timely construction method using structural systems with rigid frames fabricated from plate steel, suitable for retail stores through 500,000 square foot manufacturing facilities or warehouses. Targeted at commercial and industrial owners needing cost-efficient large-footprint buildings.
• Architectural/Engineering Services Comprehensive design services including master planning, concept design, detail design, interior detail drawings, landscape drawings, and construction documents from pre-design through construction administration. Serves clients needing integrated design support alongside construction delivery.
• Post-Build Services/Maintenance Ongoing services after construction completion including build-outs for business growth, restorations for damages, equipment upgrades, and space renovations to meet evolving industry requirements. Serves existing commercial, industrial, and institutional clients whose facilities need to adapt over time.
