For contractors, few moments rival the thrill of securing a new project. After weeks — sometimes months — of estimating, planning, and pitching, the payoff comes with a single phone call: the job is yours.

In April 2025, that call came for several of the country’s largest and most recognized construction firms. From large-scale transportation projects to high-profile venue renovations, contractors like Moss, Fluor, and Herzog secured significant new contracts, reflecting continued investment in infrastructure and public development across the United States.

“Contractors thrive on new business and opportunities, living for the moment when a potential project becomes reality,” Construction Dive wrote in its roundup of the month’s top awards. “After completing all the hard work of estimating, preparing and presenting a bid, there’s nothing quite like getting that call from a client to say the job is yours.”

This month’s slate of contract wins highlights not only the diversity of active construction sectors but also the competitive strength of the firms leading the charge. Several awarded projects aim to modernize vital transportation networks, improve regional connectivity, and enhance public amenities.

Among the notable awards:

• Herzog Contracting Corp. was selected for a new light rail project in Los Angeles, reinforcing the city’s commitment to sustainable, multimodal transportation systems amid its broader Metro expansion goals.
• Fluor Corp., known for its work on energy and infrastructure megaprojects, secured a major highway reconstruction contract, continuing its role in upgrading America's aging roadways.
• Moss Construction landed a renovation contract for a soccer stadium in Dallas, where it will update and modernize the facility to meet evolving standards for fans and athletes alike. This marks another sports and entertainment win for Moss, which has steadily expanded its presence in stadium and arena development.

These wins reflect broader trends across the construction sector, including a continued focus on public works, regional transit upgrades, and high-profile venue improvements — all part of a larger national push to revitalize infrastructure and accommodate growing urban populations.

As these projects move forward, the firms involved will not only deliver on construction timelines and technical specs but also reinforce their reputations as reliable partners for complex and high-impact builds.
