>> We are heavy civil and
industrial construction contractor.
We work primarily in the states east of the
Mississippi River, through the Mid-Atlantic,
down through the southeast,
all the way into Florida.
My name's Les Snyder, I'm president
and chief executive officer
of Infrastructure Industrial
Constructors USA and branded as i+con USA.
Well, the beginning of i+icon
actually dates back to 1947
when Joseph B Fay opened his
own construction company.
And after three generations they
decided that they should look
for other investors, and
they did in February, 2009.
And I came aboard in May of 2011 as a CEO.
And then along with the acquisition of another
family-owned construction in Virginia Beach,
Virginia, we created i+icon
USA as the parent company.
We expanded in the energy markets and
now working all the way down to Florida.
>> This is Buffalo Creak Ridge.
Behind us you can see we're pouring the cap.
It's roughly a little over
200 foot in the air right now.
>> We always aim to send every person home
to their families every single
night in just the way they arrive.
It is part of the long term
culture of these companies.
And it's not just talking about
it, our people believe it.
And that's why we live safely and
we work safely everywhere we go.
>> A lot of what I do is overseeing
the work by our site coordinators.
Making sure they're doing the
inspections, doing the training that we need
to have done for each of our employees.
There's a lot of hazards
when you work construction,
and we have a good trained employee, and
we're going to have a good, safe job site.
>> The different types of equipment are
needed are based on the style of job we apply.
Demo, heavy, civil, heavy
highway, and power plant work.
And dictated by what is needed, we will send
the needed pickup tricks, excavators, dozers,
rollers, cranes, whatever is needed
that's specifically for that job.
>> Well, we're particularly focused
on the energy market and building
that market fast pace within our company.
Whether it's for Fay, Icon
Energy, or even Icon Southeast.
We also pursue railroad work
structures and the walls, bridges,
that related kind of stuff with the railroads.
And industrial as well.
>> I'm proud of every single project
and every single person that we perform.
It's a real testament to the
culturing skills of our people.
When we get in front of our customer, the
first priority for us is to bring a solution.
Along with the rest of the
group, we want to act as a team.
That's how we find success going forward.
Everywhere our employees go
and mention our company's name,
they know that we're honest folks and that
what we say is what we're going to do.
