Turner Continues to Lead U.S. Construction Market, Expands Global Footprint

Turner Construction Company has solidified its status as the largest building contractor in the United States for the fifth year running, according to Engineering News-Record’s annual rankings. In 2024, Turner secured $26.14 billion in new contracts, a notable increase from $20 billion in 2023. Revenue also climbed to $20.24 billion from $17 billion, reflecting robust growth across multiple sectors.
Turner’s strong performance extended into early 2025, with $6.14 billion in revenue and $8.19 billion in new orders reported in the first quarter alone. This continued success is driven by steady demand in key sectors including data centers, healthcare, sports facilities, and education.

A significant factor behind Turner’s momentum is its focus on serving clients in high-growth markets and expanding its service capabilities. The company has increased offerings in technical engineering, supply chain management, self-perform construction, and offsite prefabrication. Moreover, Turner is growing its international presence, highlighted by the recent acquisition of Dornan, a prominent engineering and construction firm operating across Europe.
Currently, Turner is at the forefront of several landmark projects. These include the construction of the new stadium for the Tennessee Titans, the terminal expansion at San Diego International Airport, and a cutting-edge artificial intelligence data center for Meta in Louisiana.
Peter Davoren, Chairman and CEO of Turner Construction Company, emphasized the company’s culture as a key to its enduring success:
“The success of our company lies in our people,” Davoren said. “We consistently strive to create and sustain a workplace culture of active caring where people can be at their best, be authentic, and be treated with respect and dignity. This culture is what enables Turner to continue to earn recognition in the industry.”
Looking ahead, Turner plans to build on this foundation by further integrating advanced construction technologies and sustainable practices into its projects. The company’s commitment to innovation and client service is expected to keep it at the forefront of the construction industry amid evolving market demands.
As the construction sector continues to face challenges such as labor shortages and supply chain disruptions, Turner’s diversified portfolio and strategic investments position it well to maintain leadership in the coming years.
