Shawmut Design and Construction

There's a reason A-list clients keep coming back. They've never had a construction experience like this. We have construction management offices throughout the country—including Boston, Chicago, New York, Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.

But it’s what’s inside those offices—the people (we're a lot of fun to work with!), the passion, and the performances that have made most of our construction management clients repeat clients. » We're builders first, but we're also partners. Your needs are always a priority.

» We’re philanthropists. Every employee gets a day off to volunteer at a local organization. » We’re stewards of the environment. We embrace sustainable building practices.

» We always put safety first. Nothing is more important than making sure every member of our construction management crews gets home safely.

» We’re 100% employee-owned, which means each and every employee has a vested interest in the success of the company. It also means our clients know that no matter who they deal with, each person will do their part to make every project a successful one.

» We take a long-term view. This isn’t about getting it done and getting out. It’s about doing it right, right from the start. And about making sure you’re taken care of throughout the project.

Our Philosophy From day one, we’re all in. All the time. That’s part of our Core Values. And what we call the Shawmut Way. And that means we always: Deliver world-class client service above all else. It’s the only way we know how to do business. And it’s non-negotiable. Actively drive a safe and injury-free environment. We’re about more than just compliance; we’re about prevention.

Our #1 goal is to make sure everyone on-site and in the office goes home safely every night. Grow and develop our people to be the best. We invest heavily in our people—making sure they are the best in the industry.

Spend a few minutes with any of them and you'll see what we mean. Value diversity, openness, and respect. People who feel good about coming to work end up doing the best work. We don’t just preach teamwork, we excel at it. Walk the walk.

We’re an employee-owned company. We bring an owner’s mentality to everything we do. That means we always do what’s right for you and our company. Find a better way. No finger-pointing, just problem-solving. If it’s in your best interest, it’s in ours too. Always act with a long-term and ethical view. There’s only one way to do business, the right way. The Shawmut Way

COMMUNITY

Our favorite project to build. We donate tens of thousands of hours across all our offices—actively working with groups across the U.S. In fact, each member of our leadership team donates time and resources to a local organization.

COMMUNITY SERVINGS

Over 60 volunteers from our Boston office contributed 300 hours of their time to prepare and deliver meals to the critically ill and their families.

PAN-MASS CHALLENGE

Sore muscles, rain, and a case of hypothermia were all part of this year’s race, but nothing could stop 15 Shawmut riders and 13 volunteers from raising $125,971 and awareness for the fight against cancer.

REBUILDING TOGETHER NYC

Shawmut volunteers help with the continuous efforts to rebuild NYC neighborhoods affected by Hurricane Sandy.

SUMMER SEARCH

Along with facilitating resume workshops and offering career coaching to students enrolled in Summer Search, Shawmut hosted four college interns this past summer in our Boston and New York offices.

WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT

In just one night, members of our CMST Program raised over $2,000 for wounded veterans and their families by organizing a skee-ball event at The Greatest Bar in Boston.

YOUTHBUILD U.S.A.

Shawmut has worked with 60 young people across various levels of YouthBuild Boston’s vocational training program—that’s 60 well-trained, highly motivated future A/E/C professionals.
