PERRYVILLE, MO, October 30, 2024 - Robinson Construction Company of Perryville, Missouri today announced that it has again been named an Accredited Quality Contractor by Associated Builders and Contractors. This is the 6th year Robinson Construction has earned the prestigious credential for its commitment to corporate responsibility. Only 525 of the nation’s elite merit shop construction contractors earned the credential in 2023.

Launched more than three decades ago, ABC’s AQC credential provides recognition to industry-leading construction firms that have documented their commitment in five areas:
Quality
Health and safety performance
Talent management, including inclusion, diversity and merit
Craft and management education
Community relations

“Every day, the leaders and employees of Robinson Construction put in the work and make the decisions that deliver the highest-quality construction services to their communities and embody the highest level of corporate achievement,” said Michael Bellaman, ABC president and CEO. “Accredited Quality Contractors are top-performing ABC contractor members that set the standard for safety, culture, workforce development, innovation, merit and quality in the contracting community. Congratulations to these outstanding construction companies; you exemplify the best of ABC’s membership.”

Established in 1989, STEP provides contractors and suppliers with a robust, no-cost framework for measuring safety data and benchmarking with peers in the industry, with top performers achieving incident rates nearly six times safer than the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average.
