What Centric Construction Inc does

Centric Construction Inc (operating as Centric General Contractors) is a privately held boutique general contractor specializing in architecturally significant and technically complex construction projects. The firm operates through three wholly owned regional entities: Centric Building, covering San Francisco and Napa Valley under President & CEO Tim McDonald; Centric Construction in South San Francisco under CEO Kevin Russell and President Hanno Nehrenheim; and Centric Gulf Coast in New Orleans under President Robert Desselles. Service categories span luxury custom homes and estates, boutique hotels and luxury resorts, winery construction, restaurant builds, historic rehabilitation, community buildings, offices and warehouses, and industrial and utilities projects. Core technical capabilities include Building Information Modeling (BIM) for design clarity, cost estimating, material tracking, and procurement; the design-build project delivery method; entitlement and permitting expertise across local, state, and federal jurisdictions; sustainable construction practices; and industrial automation including PLC, HMI, and DCS programming with custom panel fabrication and industrial networking.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services contracts covering general contracting, construction management, and preconstruction consulting, with fees tied to project scope; pricing is project-specific and quote-based, not published. The go-to-market is relationship-driven enterprise field sales targeting property owners, developers, architects, and brand operators, with named client work for Pebblebrook Hotels, Auberge Resorts, Fairmont, The Presidio Trust, Kinder Morgan, Optimizely, Plaid, Louisiana State University, and San Jose Public Library. The company is supported by long-tenured repeat partnerships with architectural firms including SB Architects, Stanton Architecture, Page & Turnbull, Perkins+Will, Backen Gillam & Kroeger, TLCD Architecture, Group 4 Architecture, and Remson Haley Herpin Architects, which function as the primary referral pipeline. Recognitions include Best Places to Work (North Bay Business Journal, 2019 and 2020), AIA Architecture Merit Awards (2018 and 2020), California Preservation Foundation awards (2009 and 2014), Gold Nugget Award of Merit (2009), and multiple LEED-certified projects including LEED Gold (Presidio Building 1808, first historic LEED Gold under LEED-CS), LEED Silver (Fort Winfield Scott, Presidio Officers' Club, Lone Mountain, Playgroup Preschool), and LEED-ND (Wyman Terrace, world's first such certification).
