EDMONTON, Alberta – The PCL family of companies is pleased to announce that we have again been named a Platinum Club member in Canada’s Best Managed Companies program. This award marks the thirteenth time we have been recognized by the Best Managed Companies program and our fifth consecutive year in the Platinum Club.
“Our continued selection to this exclusive club demonstrates the quality and commitment of our employees in the competitive construction industry across North America,” says Ross Grieve, president and CEO of the PCL family of companies.
Platinum Club members form an elite group of Canadian-owned-and-managed companies that consistently excel in every aspect of business. To become a Platinum Club member, companies must maintain their designation as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for a minimum of six consecutive years, subject to annual operational and financial review.
The PCL family of companies set another record in financial performance over the 2006-07 fiscal year. The group has grown every year since the employees took over ownership in 1977. The PCL family’s construction volume is now more than $5 billion annually.
