When Richard O’Connell and Erik Gunderson founded Primus Builders in 2000, their goal was to provide specialized construction services to the cold storage and distribution industries. Since then, Primus has grown to become a leading provider of design-build services for the distribution, food and beverage and medical device sterilization industries. Primus’s team of more than 70 specialists includes site selection experts, architects, engineers, process planners, estimators, thermal construction and construction management professionals, all dedicated to providing superior design and construction services on every project.
Primus has grown to include three divisions: Primus Design Services, LLC; Primus Builders, Inc.; and Primus Panels Division. Each company specializes in a specific component of the design-build process that, together, are the foundation of the firm’s single-source approach. Because all three companies are located under one roof, communication is effortless, allowing Primus to implement Owner goals into a single agenda that delivers the project on budget, within schedule and assuring quality.
Because of Primus’s proven track record for completing quality projects, the firm has been the design-builder of choice on over 300 projects since its inception. Many of these projects are repeat business and reflect the firm’s commitment to building lifelong relationships with its clients.
Philosophy
At the core of Primus’s philosophy is an unyielding dedication to fair and ethical business practices. Primus is committed to the belief that “doing the right thing” in all aspects of our business – with Owners, vendors or stakeholders – is critical to its success. In 2008, Primus demonstrated its commitment to this practice by appointing Dr. Paul Voss as an advisor and member of the firm’s Board of Directors. Dr. Voss is an expert in ethics and serves as President of Ethikos, a private firm specializing in the exploration and application of ethics in corporate, social and legal environments. His efforts have guided Primus to success based on principled business practices.
