Steigerwald, the newly appointed CEO, brings over 30 years of experience in the construction industry, including time as an executive with Fluor and Jacobs Solutions. He led Arco Design/Build’s Philadelphia office and spurred the firm’s growth in the northeast, resulting in expansion offices in Baltimore, New York, Richmond and Raleigh-Durham, according to the release.
“Our entire team remains passionately committed to understanding the business of our customers and delivering solutions that solve their problems and better position them for growth,” Steigerwald said in the release.
