Letter from the CEO
I started ACMS from a simple idea – Owners need a single point of responsibility in capital projects. So, I bootstrapped ACMS into existence. Borrowed money, took risk, started a company. Our Customers responded, we prospered, and ACMS grew. Originally, ACMS served the refining and steel manufacturing industries southeast of Chicago, Illinois. We grew some more. The talent started coming to us – experienced engineers, constructors, craft tradesmen. And we grew some more. We built safety systems, inspection protocols, process. Our Customers recognized what they were getting. And we grew some more. As our breadth of services expanded, the company was renamed ACMS Group As always, we pride ourselves in providing state-of-the-art consulting and design services, while maintaining the commitment to customer satisfaction.
Today, ACMS Group provides experience and talent to the manufacturing and construction industries. We are very proud of our construction management and QA/QC capabilities. Beholden only to our customer, we “get it right” by providing independent project/construction management. We document your project with QA/QC services – your ‘as built’ drawings are exactly that – as built. Your job proceeds safely, with ACMS industrial safety services catering to heavy industrial environments.
We’ve served steel, refining, power generation, natural gas, chemical, automotive, food processing and pharmaceutical clients across the United States. Please look through our website. I’m darn proud of ACMS Group Inc. and what we’ve accomplished. We’re a team now. Bring your tough, complex construction jobs to us. This is what we do, what we are. Let us build/manage/fix your problems. Put us on your team. We want to grow with you.
Thank you,
James J DePaoli
President
