Excellence in Construction Award attests to
DECCO’s unrelenting commitment to per-
formance, productivity and positive results
for its clients.
“The excellence in construction award speaks
to the projects,” Barton said. “We regularly
win an Eagle Award or a Merit Award for the
work we do inNewHampshire and Vermont
and in previous years, we’ve been successful
at the national level when submitting larger
projects that led to national awards.”
SHIFTING LANDSCAPES
Thriving in the county’s “Great Recession”
DECCO still faced a future of uncertainty.
But after looking at the landscape and moni-
toring what was happening within the re-
gion and the markets they serve, the compa-
ny realized that they were going to do what
they’ve always done in their seven decades of
existence: adapt to the client’s needs.
“We’re always looking at the landscape to
understand how it’s shifting,” Barton said. “If
you go back a decade in this area, those large
bio-pharmaceutical companies were build-
ing very substantial production facilities
and we were able to respond to that need. It
shifted not so much towards building new,
but modifying and expanding in a different
marketplace.”
