PCL Still Platinum in Canada's Best Managed Companies

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 fifteenth time we have been recognized by the Best Managed Companies program and our seventh consecutive year in the Platinum Club.

“This is great news again this year. To be recognized at this level for how we manage and run our organization demonstrates to our customers, I hope, that we really are construction leaders,” says Paul Douglas, president and CEO of the PCL family of companies.

The PCL family of companies set another record for financial performance over the 2008-09 fiscal year. The group has grown progressively since the employees took over ownership in 1977. The PCL family’s construction volume is now more than $6 billion annually.

Membership in the prestigious Platinum Club is reserved for companies who have maintained a standard of excellence for at least six consecutive years in the original program (50 Best Managed Companies). Members are reevaluated yearly to ensure the integrity of the club, as well as the companies’ consistent pursuit of business excellence, innovation, and stakeholder value.
