What Omnibuild does

Omnibuild is a privately held, full-service construction management and general contracting firm founded in 2007 and headquartered in New York City. The company specializes in complex high-rise new construction, major renovations, design-build, pre-construction, and development services across the hospitality, residential, commercial, and mixed-use sectors. Its portfolio spans more than 8 million square feet, over 20,000 vertical feet, and nearly 6,200 hotel guest rooms, with marquee clients including Marriott Marquis, Hilton, Hyatt, Radisson, Madison Realty Capital, Vornado Realty Trust, and Microsoft.

The company is differentiated by being a pioneer of the open-shop labor model in NYC, allowing it to deploy both union and nonunion subcontractors on the same site and select trades on price, schedule, and resume. Its technical stack centers on Building Information Modeling (BIM), used end-to-end from conceptual design through construction for scheduling, elevations, walkthroughs, MEP coordination, clash detection, and construction simulations. Omnibuild also brings proprietary expertise in advanced façade systems — including curtain wall, pressure-equalized rain screen, thin stone panels, and ultra-high performance concrete panels — and has executed firsts such as NYC's first inclined/declined mast climber installation.

Omnibuild generates revenue through project-based general contracting and construction management contracts, primarily in the New York metropolitan area with project work extending into New Jersey, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Santa Monica. The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, with direct engagement of property owners, developers, and hospitality operators, supplemented by competitive bidding and a subcontractor pre-qualification process. The 2015 acquisition of Cava Construction brought the combined entity to over 100 professionals and a projected $200 million-plus revenue base, and subsequent ENR Top 400 ranking progression (#382 in 2017 to #15 regional in 2019) reflects continued scale gains. The firm employs roughly 150 people and operates as a private corporation under the legal name Omnibuild Construction Inc.
