Building Responsibly from The Start
Delphi has what might be considered an unusual origin story. Our professional roots are in the Owners Rep side of the Industry where we represented a variety of clients in the Healthcare Market. The construction company was actually formed in response to a direct request from a long term client about to undertake a large Hospital construction project.
This client had been so impressed with our highly personalized approach, our degree of professionalism and the in-depth construction knowledge we demonstrated in our owner’s rep role, that he inquired if we would consider handling the Construction Management responsibilities as well.
After carefully considering the opportunity, Delphi Construction was founded in 1992.
From the beginning, our mission was to do things a little differently from what we had observed as standard operating procedure in the construction Industry. We believed that if we personalized the approach, consistently put the client’s needs first and operated with an unwavering commitment to the principles of honesty and integrity, we would have a recipe for enduring success.
Since that time, Delphi has grown from a small firm focusing on healthcare, to an organization of more than 70 full time employees and leadership team team serving a long list of clients in all major construction sectors.
With annual revenues in excess of $60 Million and a current project Bonding level of over $100Million, Delphi is well positioned for continued growth into the future.
Much has changed for Delphi Construction since those early days, but one thing has remained constant: Our commitment to the core values of Honesty and Integrity that has led to our success in the first place.

We Won’t Settle for Anything Less Than A+
Our project delivery teams understand that without achieving the highest levels of success in each individual area, the project as a whole cannot be considered to meet Delphi’s A+ Project Delivery™ Standard.
We have developed a comprehensive set of criteria against which we measure our performance throughout the life of the project. Some aspects are quantitative, others qualitative but each is equally important.
We thoroughly train and equip our Project Managers and Construction Superintendents with the kind of dynamic management skills necessary to ensure the holistic health of the project at all times.
Our staff is challenged to continually improve and respond to a changing environment through weekly self evaluation and mentoring from senior peers. They are held accountable by the Executives to whom they report through direct client feedback. This client feedback is gathered during weekly client meetings and also formally at key milestones and at project’s end.
