The Big-D Idaho Falls office began, in earnest, in 2013 when a project construction team with ties to Eastern Idaho was relocated to Rexburg, Idaho to manage the construction of the Central Energy Facility project at BYU-Idaho. Company leadership then discovered there were other employees from Eastern Idaho eager to pursue more work locally. In turn, Big-D encouraged their eagerness and desire to establish a presence throughout Eastern Idaho. That presence continued to grow until Big-D officially opened a regional office in Idaho Falls in 2018.
Big-D Idaho Falls is proud to offers clients the ability to work directly with a local contractor who can devote a higher level of attention to projects, typical of a smaller contractor, but who is also backed by the significant resources of a much larger firm. With Big-D Idaho Falls you receive the best of both worlds – the dedication of an earnest small contractor and the resources, professionalism, and experience of a much larger organization.
While the roots of Big-D Construction are ever-expanding, our Idaho Falls office takes a community-centered approach to our work. On every project, our priorities include strengthening local economies and creating jobs for existing residents by supporting local merchants, vendors, suppliers, and retailers.

The Big-D Lindon office opened in 2005 with the focus to increase Big-D’s presence in Utah County. The Lindon office constructs a wide range of project types annually, with key market sectors being commercial buildings, higher education facilities, multi-family housing, industrial, and mining projects. Big-D Lindon is a fully self-sufficient office, able to offer comprehensive Preconstruction and Construction services, and is staffed with a Preconstruction Director, a team of estimators, and a variety of market-specific construction team members.
Building and maintaining local client relationships has always been the driving factor for the Lindon office but being local for their employees who appreciate working on projects close to home and minimizing long commutes is equally as important. Just as Big-D Construction seeks to be the most sought-after construction company in the business, the Lindon office has a similar goal of being the number one construction company in Utah County.

Big-D Construction was founded in 1967 in Ogden. It was our original home, first headquarters, and where it all started. The Ogden office is where our company culture and core values were forged and where Big Dee and his founding leaders built a company based on equal respect for customers and employees. A company based on honesty and integrity. A company where there is no difference between what we say and what we do. The Ogden operation grew quickly, taking on larger and more notable projects in the food and beverage processing, manufacturing and industrial warehouse sectors. This office of humble beginnings marked many of Big-D Construction’s significant “firsts” – first $1 million annual revenue, first million-dollar single project, and first large scale, multi-million-dollar contract.
Today, Big-D Ogden serves as both the northern Utah regional office and the homebase of our Big-D National Food &amp; Beverage division. Their primary focus is still food and beverage processing, warehouse/distribution, and manufacturing facilities. Nearly 95% of Big-D Ogden’s projects are from longstanding repeat clients and their footprint continues to grow for their Food &amp; Beverage unit across the U.S.

Big-D Midwest lends a helping hand with HEARTS & HAMMERS

Big-D Midwest is always thinking of ways to better their community in BIG ways and in small. Each year they partner with a local non-profit, Hearts &amp; Hammers, to volunteer for their annual Day of Service. With the office and field team in attendance, they paint, landscape, repair siding, clean out garages and even repair wheelchair ramps.
Hearts &amp; Hammers puts Big-D Midwest in touch with owners who need their assistance to restore their homes. Sharon was a previous homeowner and said, “I am just so thankful for the work that Big-D Construction did on my house. It took such a weight off my shoulders.”
Employee Jesse Sherman has been spearheading this collaboration for the last few years. He says, “It feels so good to give back to our community and have the opportunity to put my skills to use.”
The Big-D Midwest team is so grateful to Hearts &amp; Hammers for their continued partnership, and to their employees for always being willing to help their community.

HopeKids provides ongoing events, activities and a powerful, unique support community for families who have a child with cancer or some other life-­threatening medical condition. They surround these remarkable children and their families with the message that hope is a powerful medicine.
Members of the Big-D Midwest team patriciate in and sponsor the Annual Coleberry Golf Tournament benefitting HopeKids Minnesota nonprofit organization.
“Big-D has sponsored and been involved with HopeKids for many years, and we’re grateful for their partnership,” said Brian Anderson, Executive Director, HopeKids Minnesota. ​​​​​​​
Big-D Midwest is proud to have a continued partnership with HopeKids.

One, two, three, jump! And jump they do into the frosty depths of an ice-cold lake, all for a good cause. Big-D Midwest annually raises money for Special Olympics at the Polar Plunge event.
Special Olympics Minnesota is helping to create a world that accepts and welcomes every single person regardless of ability or disability. The Polar Plunge is the biggest fundraiser for Special Olympics Minnesota. All funds raised by Plungers help Special Olympics Minnesota provide year-round training and services to thousands of athletes with intellectual disabilities across the state.
“I have done the plunge in the past and love the opportunity to do something out of the box that supports a great cause,” said Jesse. “I was nervous about the colder than expected weather, but afterwards I felt invigorated. It was totally worth the ice-cold experience. Happy to have done it with the Big-D team and I would do it again!”

Each year Big-D Midwest, along with many of our subcontractors, supports Toys for Tots &#8211; Twin Cities by collecting toys to be distributed to children within our community in need of holiday cheer. We are so grateful to the companies and employees who donate to the drive!

Toys For Tots

Our first ever company-wide Week of Giving showed us that we are “Here for Good” in every sense.
Thanks to all of our associates, friends, and families, who collectively donated $21,650 dollars during our inaugural Week of Giving—an amount we matched at the company level. Beyond the money donated, our team members across the country volunteered at local food banks and donated to food drives to support Feeding America and their mission to end hunger.

Feeding America

A day of giving to benefit the 2022 Special Olympics turned into much more after Big-D Midwest purchased sub sandwiches for their team and discovered the cause unwrapped a few personal connections. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
“My son Luke is 30 years old. He has a cognitive impairment; he was born six weeks early, and his lungs weren’t developed, which caused oxygen deprivation in his brain. He started doing the special Olympics when he was 11-years-old. He excels at sports, and he loves doing it!” said Sr. Superintendent Patrick Rodgers for Big-D Midwest.
Each year participating Jersey Mike’s Subs donates 100% of their daily profits to benefit the Special Olympics USA Games and Special Olympics state Programs. Nationwide, a full day of sales brings in an estimated $10 million – to charity. This year, Big-D Midwest jumped in on the national fundraiser and sent a companywide email treating associates to lunch.
“It touched me that Big-D would offer all of us sandwiches for this event Jersey Mike’s puts on and I just want to say thank you from me and my son because it helps him continue going on,” said Rodgers who has been with Big-D Midwest for four years. Throughout his 38-year construction career, Rodgers worked hard to care for and create a comfortable life for his son and the Special Olympics brought out a passion in Luke for floor hockey, baseball, and basketball.
“I was a single dad, so seeing him get physical was cool, and he loves sports. It’s very exciting to watch him play!” said Rodgers.
“If you ever have a chance to witness one of the events the Special Olympics has, I highly recommend doing so. Participants, like my son Luke, look forward to every event so they can play and socialize with others. They do not know the meaning of losing!” said Rodgers.
Jersey Mikes changes their charity each year, and Big-D Midwest continues to participate and support the event.

Supporting Those who Serve through Operation Gratitude

Big-D Midwest partnered with Operation Gratitude, an organization that honors and serves military and first responders through various volunteer and support opportunities across the United States, in honor of Veterans Day 2022.
The Midwest team joined together over their lunch break to craft paracord bracelets to be sent to active military personnel. These paracord ‘survival’ bracelets, “provide a military or first responder with a tangible, lasting expression of gratitude and a symbol of appreciation from grateful Americans everywhere” quotes Operation Gratitude’s website and will be sent alongside other essential items in care packages.
Big-D is thankful to all who serve.

OPERATION GRATITUDE

Make-A-Wish had a lasting impression on Lauryn Greenwald and her family not too long ago, and they&#8217;ve been paying it forward ever since.
Lauryn, a Sr. Project Administrator at Big-D Construction’s Midwest office said shortly after her son Christian had been diagnosed with cancer, the foundation granted him his wish in 2016; to meet popular YouTubers “Rhett and Link.” As Lauryn puts it, the entire experience was “just awesome.”
Not only did Christian get to meet a couple of his favorite online stars, but he and his family were treated in true Hollywood fashion with a flight to Los Angeles, and limo service from the airport to their Southern California hotel. Lauryn describes it as a “cushy stay in a super fancy resort.”  The VIP treatment didn’t stop there, the family then received special passes allowing them to jump the lines on all the rides at Universal Studios like real stars! “It was just amazing,” Lauryn recalls. “It was like the best thing and my kids still talk about it today.”​​​​​​​
For Christian, the day became a cherished memory for the rest of his life until he passed away in 2018. To pay it forward, and help other children have a similar experience, Lauryn’s family became involved with the Minnesota Chapter’s Walk for Wishes event.
The fundraiser, which gives participants the choice of either a 5K run or a mile-long walk, raises money for Make-A-Wish. In Christian’s honor, the family has named their fundraising team “Christian Cancer Swag,” the name Christian chose when he was the grandmaster of the event in 2017. This last month, the Christian Cancer Swag team did quite well, coming in third place for money raised this year.
As a sign of support, Big-D Midwest matched the value Lauryn and her family raised. To Lauryn, the gesture alone was priceless.
“It’s above and beyond,” said Lauryn. “I’ve never worked for any company before that has ever cared about me and supported me in my personal life. I think that’s probably pretty rare.”
Big-D Midwest continues to support Lauryn and Make A Wish each year, and is very happy to do so.
