“Our team is now empowered to perform even greater than they did before,” said Tim Kinney.
The evolution of Kinney Construction has been ongoing for 43 years. In 1982, founder Tim Kinney graduated from the College of Engineering at Northern Arizona University with a vision of building something lasting. He launched a successful general contracting firm in New York City before fulfilling a promise to himself to return to Northern Arizona. In 1995, he established Kinney Construction Services in Flagstaff.
Since then, the company has grown into an award-winning general contracting, construction management and design-build firm headquartered in Flagstaff, serving communities locally and across the country for more than 26 years.
Now, the company is adding a new chapter to its story as “Flagstaff’s first local and 100% employee-owned company,” according to a news release, “designed to inspire every team member to take initiative, lead with integrity and invest in the future of the company and its community.”
“Our team is now empowered to perform even greater than they did before,” said Tim Kinney. “Our leadership team comprises the same individuals who have shaped Kinney into what it is today, having been with the company since its inception. This is an exciting time, marking the start of the next phase in our evolution.”
Along with the ownership change, Kinney is unveiling a refreshed brand identity, including a new name, look and tagline: Welcome to Kinney – Sustainability Champions, Continuous Improvement Advocates, and Flagstaff’s Community Builder.
Kinney’s portfolio includes notable projects such as the City of Flagstaff’s Municipal Courthouse, NAU’s International Pavilion and the Easton Collection Center at the Museum of Northern Arizona, which was recognized as the greenest building in the nation.
Through the Kinney Foundation, the company has supported more than 40 local nonprofits. The team “is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of the community through board participation, volunteer efforts, advocacy and financial support, including individual and corporate contributions, sponsorships and campaign fundraisers,” the company stated.
“At Kinney, ‘Building Better Together’ isn’t just a slogan, it’s the foundation of everything we do,” said President Mike Thomas. “As proud partners in Arizona’s smart, sustainable growth, we are dedicated to making a lasting impact on the communities we serve, one purposeful project at a time.” FBN
