MECCOR

What MECCOR does

Meccor Industries, Ltd. is a family-owned general contractor headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, providing carpentry, millwork, doors & hardware, and miscellaneous & ornamental metals services for commercial, institutional, and government clients in the Chicago metropolitan area and State of Illinois. Founded in 1984 and continuously family-owned since inception, the firm operates in two principal modes: direct contracting with property owners and subcontracting to top-tier general contractors including Turner Construction, James McHugh Construction, and Clark Construction. Its service portfolio spans minor remodeling through major renovation and detail-oriented projects, with notable work on Chicago landmarks such as McCormick Place West Expansion (>$15M), the Art Institute of Chicago (>$6M), Soldier Field (>$4M), and Shedd Aquarium (>$1M).

The company holds MBE (Minority Business Enterprise) certification recognized by most major public agencies in the Chicago area and the State of Illinois, which supports its bidding on Job Order Contracting (JOC) and other public works programs with entities such as the Chicago Department of Aviation ($18M JOC), Chicago Park District ($12M JOC and $12M Rapid Response), and University of Illinois at Chicago ($12M JOC). Meccor has no proprietary technology platform; its offering is trade labor and craft expertise in physical construction. Revenue is project-based, generated through competitive tendering for government JOC contracts and as a subcontractor on prime-contracted commercial and institutional builds, with individual project values ranging from over $1M to over $18M on a cumulative project basis exceeding $100M.

Customer segments are bifurcated between government/public agencies (primary) and private commercial, institutional, and luxury residential clients (secondary). The firm is led by President Jonathan Eng, with department heads Kim Abney (Carpentry/General Contracting), Keith Johnson (Millwork/Doors & Hardware), and Alan Throw (Misc. & Ornamental Metals). Operational scale is small (1-10 employees per firmographics), consistent with a specialty trade contractor model that leans on a lean core team and project-based craft labor.
