Leadership appointments continue to play a key role as construction firms strengthen operational and financial oversight to support expanding project portfolios. AZCO has appointed Andrew Firkins as vice president of finance and administration, adding an experienced construction finance executive to its leadership team.
Based in Appleton, Wisconsin, Firkins will lead AZCO's finance and administrative operations, including financial management and project controls. His responsibilities will support the company's ongoing industrial construction and fabrication operations across the United States and Canada.
AZCO, part of the Burns & McDonnell family of companies, delivers projects in sectors including power, oil and gas, manufacturing, aviation, and food and beverage.
Firkins brings more than 15 years of experience in finance and accounting, with a background in financial management, business planning, forecasting, and project financial oversight within the engineering and construction industry.
Before joining AZCO, he held several finance leadership positions at Burns & McDonnell, most recently serving as a controller responsible for leading a team of financial managers supporting the firm's operations.
He holds bachelor's and master's degrees in accounting from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
As industrial construction projects grow in size and complexity, financial management and project controls remain essential to maintaining project performance and operational efficiency. Leadership appointments in finance help contractors strengthen cost oversight, forecasting, and strategic planning while supporting long-term business growth.
