Cianbro was construction manager for the Portland Homeless Services Center, completed in 2023 and an example of a vertical construction project that now falls under the A/Z Corp. brand.
Looking to clarify the brand of its construction management group, Cianbro has consolidated the group under A/Z Corp., a North Stonington, Conn.-based building contractor acquired by Cianbro in 2019.
Pittsfield-based Cianbro Corp. is Maine's largest construction firm, with $1.2 billion in revenue in 2022 and 3,000 employees, according to the 2024 Mainebiz Book of Lists. It offers pre-construction, construction management, general contracting and design-build services.
In addition to A/Z Corp., Cianbro owns Starcon International Inc., an Illinois petrochemical contractor acquired in 2010; and R. C. Stevens Construction Co., a Florida company acquired in 2022 as a large presence in the southeastern U.S.
A/Z Corp.’s primary focus is construction management.
“In Maine, people have known Cianbro as a general contractor,” Andi Vigue, the company’s president, told Mainebiz. “As we’ve grown into construction management services, that wasn’t always clear to the marketplace. So we put the building construction management services under A/Z because that’s what they do and it allows us to eliminate confusion and to sell those services more directly.”
Maine-based personnel working under the A/Z brand will remain in Maine, he added.
As Cianbro, Maine’s largest construction firm, has grown in size, “It’s important that we’re deliberate in our messaging to our customers and our markets,” Vigue said. The company now has more than $1.2 billion in annual sales and works in 42 states,
Of Cianbro's 3,000 people, more than 1,000 of them are based in Maine. The firm's largest Maine project now underway is construction of new dry docks at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery.
