The company's core technology centers on slipform paving using Wirtgen SP series pavers (SP 25i, SP 64i, SP 94i) capable of paving up to 35 feet in width, combined with Erie Strayer central mix concrete plants and pugmill plants operated by sister company A.G. Peltz Group that meet FAA P304 specifications. Its service portfolio spans eleven integrated capabilities: slipform paving, barrier walls, bridge rails, culverts, retaining walls, concrete rehabilitation, emergency bridge repair, curb and gutter, drainage structures, slotted drain systems, and slope paving. Abramson's leadership brings over 65 years of combined experience, with key executives including Managing Partner Will Gray (founding member of A.G. Peltz Group), Operations Director Scottie Cole (former ALDOT District Engineer, 17+ years tenure), Chief Estimator Rodney Woodham (41+ years, capable of bidding projects up to $50 million), and General Superintendent Tom Benacquisto (50+ years, 4M+ SY of RCC/slipform experience).

Abramson generates revenue through project-based fixed-price and cost-plus contracts secured via competitive bidding on publicly funded infrastructure RFPs, with a relationship-based go-to-market focused on DOT agencies and large industrial customers. The company operates a multi-year contract billing model and reports combined production of 11+ million square yards of Roller Compacted Concrete pavement with A.G.

Core offering

Abramson, LLC is a specialty concrete contractor delivering infrastructure construction services for highways, bridges, airports, ports, and industrial sites. Its core offering centers on slipform paving using Wirtgen pavers (capable of paving up to 35 feet width) and Erie Strayer central mix concrete plants, complemented by barrier walls, bridge rails, culverts, retaining walls, concrete rehabilitation, and emergency bridge repair services. Projects are secured through competitive bidding with state DOTs (ALDOT, MDOT, TDOT, GDOT) and direct contracts with port authorities, airports, railroads, and industrial clients across the Southeastern United States.

Product overview

Abramson, LLC is a specialty concrete contractor offering a unified portfolio of infrastructure construction services centered on slipform paving technology. The core service offering comprises ten distinct but complementary capabilities: Slip Form Paving (the primary method enabling continuous concrete extrusion), Barrier Walls, Bridge Rails, Culverts, Retaining Walls, Concrete Rehabilitation, Emergency Bridge Repair, Curb and Gutter, Drainage Structures, Slotted Drain Systems, and Slope Paving. These services are delivered as integrated construction solutions rather than standalone products, with specialized equipment (including Wirtgen slipform pavers and Erie Strayer concrete plants) supporting projects across transportation networks, aviation facilities, water management, and industrial applications. The company operates primarily in Alabama with DOT qualifications in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Georgia.
