Reyes Group

What Reyes Group does

Reyes Group Ltd. is an MBE-certified, privately held general contracting firm founded in 1992 and headquartered at 15515 S. Crawford Avenue in Markham, Illinois. The company delivers ten core construction services: general contracting, underground utilities, fuel line installation, structural concrete, rail work, excavation, demolition, concrete precast, concrete sitework, and erosion control. It serves governmental, commercial, industrial, and private-sector clients, with a documented concentration in aviation infrastructure, transit rail, water management, and municipal/public-works projects across the Chicago metropolitan area, with recent extension into Texas at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and Lewisville Dam.

The firm's revenue model is project-based, one-time contract work procured through competitive bidding on public RFPs and through negotiated private contracts, with multi-year contract cadences on large institutional assignments. Pricing is custom per project, reflecting scope, labor, materials, and equipment. Go-to-market centers on direct bidding to government agencies and large enterprises (Chicago Department of Aviation, Chicago Transit Authority, Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, ComEd, O'Hare Fuel Company, Illinois State Tollway, Chicago Park District) and on joint-venture partnerships with Tier-1 primes including Kiewit, F.H. Paschen, W.E. O'Neil, K-Five Construction, and Turner Paschen Aviation Partners, which enable Reyes to compete for projects that exceed its standalone scale or bonding capacity. Marquee completed work includes the O'Hare runway 9L-27R program (the first new runway at O'Hare in 30 years), CTA Blue Line tie and rail renewal, American Airlines Hangar II Replacement at O'Hare Terminal 3, and the Maggie Daley Park reconstruction.

The company employs 51-100 staff and operates from a single Illinois headquarters. It holds MBE certification and prequalifications with IDOT, the Chicago Transit Authority, and the Public Building Commission, and is positioned as a minority-owned specialty contractor with a stated emphasis on safety, on-time delivery, and self-performed craft work in structural concrete, underground utilities, and fuel systems. Leadership comprises Marcos G. Reyes as Chief Executive Officer and President, with the firm appearing to remain founder-controlled. There are no disclosed funding rounds, institutional investors, M&A activity, or public-listing plans in the available source material.

Kiewit JV-partnered with Reyes on CTA Blue Line work and routinely competes for or leads the largest infrastructure projects in Illinois.

Emerging players
