Speaking on Business: Sundt Construction

This is Derek Miller Speaking on Business. Sundt Construction is one of the nation’s largest construction companies. The 130-year-old firm specializes in transportation, industrial, building, concrete and renewable power work and is owned entirely by its 2,000-plus employees. Sundt is distinguished by its diverse capabilities, proven experience, and unique employee-ownership culture. Here is Ken Kubacki, head of Sundt Construction’s Intermountain Region to tell us more. KEN KUBACKI Much of our work in Utah has focused on aviation, bridges, and roadways. Notable projects include our runway work at the Salt Lake City International Airport, a self-perform concrete project at the Dugway Proving Ground, and the completion of construction on a new bridge and interchange on I-215 at Redwood Road—where we garnered numerous accolades including the prestigious UDOT Partnering Award. Last year our team partnered to start construction on the new $528 million Water Reclamation Facility for Salt Lake City, which will serve more than 200,000 customers when it is completed in 2024. And just last month, our team started the I-80 Improvement Project in Tooele County to improve traffic flow between State Roads 201 and 36. Our work has expanded and improved infrastructure to keep pace with Utah’s growing population and strong economy. We look forward to continuing this work in the coming years. DEREK MILLER As a contractor known for innovation, problem-solving and pioneering technology, Sundt has found a natural home in Utah and will remain an invaluable partner for years to come.
