What Broaddus Construction does

Broaddus Construction is a Texas-based general contractor founded in 1972 as FJW Construction in the Dallas-Fort Worth region and rebranded under its current name in 2017. Originally operating across more than 30 states under FJW, the company has since consolidated its geographic focus to four permanent Texas offices (Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and McAllen) and now operates as part of the Broaddus Family of Companies under the principal management of Dr. James Broaddus. The firm delivers complex capital improvement projects across six verticals: aviation, healthcare, education, multi-family/campus housing, religious, and specialty construction, with marquee projects including the DFW International Airport Fire Training Research Center and Dallas Baptist University's Horner Ballpark.

The Broaddus Family of Companies extends well beyond construction services. Wholly-owned subsidiaries include Broaddus & Associates (owner's representation through planning, design, and construction phases), Broaddus Planning (campus planning, urban design, and facility programming), Broaddus Technologies (project management tooling and design-phase modeling), and Broaddus Defense (active-attacker survival training). This integrated delivery model allows the firm to provide services across the entire building lifecycle. The company holds U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOB) certification under NAICS 236220 and 237990, with CAGE Code 5XPS7 and DUNS 027324860.

Broaddus Construction generates revenue through project-based, one-time construction contracts awarded via competitive bidding and direct owner engagement. Distribution is supported by BuildingConnected for bid invitations and Lockton's SCORE System for trade partner prequalification. The firm employs 49 people and targets enterprise and institutional clients across aviation (DFW Airport), higher education (Dallas Baptist University), and residential developers (Oaks of Kyle). No public listing, funding rounds, or financial disclosures are available, and the company is a privately held subsidiary within the Broaddus Companies group.
