CBNA (Civil & Building North America Inc.)

What CBNA (Civil & Building North America Inc.) does

CBNA (Civil & Building North America Inc.) is a Miami-headquartered, private construction contractor and wholly-owned subsidiary of Bouygues Construction, operating in North America since 2002 across Florida, Virginia, California, Rhode Island, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C. The company executes two principal lines of work: heavy civil infrastructure — including tunnels, bridges, underground works, river and maritime projects, and linear infrastructure — and buildings construction spanning hospitality, healthcare, high-rise residential and office towers, mixed-use developments, and data centers. Marquee reference projects include the Port of Miami Tunnel, the 1.4 million sq ft Brickell City Centre mixed-use development for Swire Properties (2017 Urban Land Institute Project of the Year), the 926,000 sq ft Flamingo South Beach renovation for AIMCO, and the ongoing 5.5-mile Potomac River Tunnel for DC Water.

Technically, CBNA differentiates through BIM-integrated in-house design management, customized tunnel boring machines adapted to variable geological conditions, and PPVC (Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction) modular methods. Service offerings span the full project lifecycle: project finance structuring, design management, construction execution, and long-term operation and maintenance, including under public-private partnership (PPP) arrangements where the parent claims nearly 30 years of experience. The company pursues revenue through competitive bidding on public tenders and direct enterprise engagement with property developers and government agencies, typically under fixed-price design-build or PPP contracts; it does not publish standard pricing or operate through intermediaries. Customer concentration is high in terms of project count, with revenue dependent on a small number of multi-year mega-projects.
