What Bogner Construction Company does

Bogner Construction Company is a fourth-generation, family-owned general contractor founded in 1897 in Wooster, Ohio, providing construction services to governmental, municipal, institutional, educational, commercial, and industrial clients primarily across Ohio and the broader United States. The firm's core service portfolio comprises four lines: (1) General Contracting, covering site preparation, new construction, remodeling, and pre-engineered building installation with in-house capabilities in carpentry, masonry, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, concrete, and interior finishes; (2) Construction Management, delivered through both Construction Manager as Agent (CMa) and Construction Manager at Risk (CMR) models, providing estimating, scheduling, constructability review, and purchasing strategy; (3) Design-Build, integrating in-house architects and engineers with construction personnel for single-point-of-contact delivery; and (4) Crane & Rigging Services, supported by an owned mobile crane fleet (Grove 115-ton, Manitex 50-ton, National 40-ton, Bucyrus-Erie 60- and 15-ton) and skilled millwright and rigger crews.

The business operates on a project-based, quote-driven professional services model. Pricing is bespoke per engagement with multi-year contract cadence, and revenue is generated through competitive bidding on public projects and negotiated or design-build awards on private work. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales, anchored by 125+ years of community presence in the Wooster, Akron, and Wayne County markets, with the website and direct phone as the primary intake channels. Notable clients include The College of Wooster (Lowry Center, Ruth W. Williams Hall), Western Reserve Group (corporate headquarters and pedestrian bridge), Wayne County Public Library, Buehler's Fresh Foods, Daisy Brand, Frito Lay, Artiflex, Hospice Life Care, and Holmes Cheese Company.

The firm is a recognized OSHA Elite Contractor, two-time winner of the Ohio Contractor's Association Outstanding Safety Award, and an Authorized Builder for Nucor Building System. It holds no external institutional investment and is operated by the fourth generation of the Bogner family, with Tim Bogner as President, Mike Bogner as VP of Procurement, and Adam Bogner (LEED AP BD+C) as Director of Marketing. No public revenue, backlog, or backlog growth figures are disclosed.
