Construction Managers of Austin

What Construction Managers of Austin does

Construction Managers of Austin (CMA), founded in 2008 and headquartered in Austin, Texas (with a new headquarters opened in Leander, TX in 2026), is a privately held construction management and general contracting firm specializing in amenity centers, clubhouses, pool facilities, and commercial ground-up construction for developers across Central Texas. The company operates a deliberately lean model with seven total employees, supported by long-tenured trade partners including Just Add Water Pools and Outback Masonry, and delivers projects as single point of accountability from pre-construction through warranty and close-out.

CMA offers two integrated service lines: Build Services (ground-up construction delivered through general contracting, pre-construction and design-build, and owner's representation) and Manage Services (end-to-end construction management including subcontractor management, schedule and cost control, quality assurance, inspections, and warranty support). It also provides renovation and tenant improvement work. Delivery methods span general contracting, owner's representation, and design-build, with quote-based, project-specific pricing and no publicly disclosed rate cards.

The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting master-planned community developers and commercial developers, reaching customers through direct outreach, website inquiries, phone engagement, and long-standing developer relationships. The client roster includes 22+ named national and regional homebuilders and developers — Crescent Communities, Brookfield, Hillwood, Lennar, DR Horton, Taylor Morrison, PulteGroup, KB Homes, Meritage, Ashton Woods, and others — concentrated in the master-planned residential vertical with select commercial projects such as Liberty Civil Construction's Leander headquarters. CMA holds National Standard General Building Contractor (A) certification and is licensed, insured, and bonded across Texas.
