Milestone fiber production plant under construction in Thailand

Pepper Construction has been named ENR Midwest Contractor of the Year.

CRRC MA Corp. committed in 2015 to build the 204,000-sq-ft assembly facility for Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s next-gen rail cars, although the China-owned firm had yet to land contracts with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority and Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority.

Technology and mobile connectivity have gone a long way toward fixing problems with the traditional design and construction process, but only a business model with volume production can reduce risk and deliver results that can truly offset unexpected events. 

After talks with President Donald Trump, Foxconn Technology Group says it will build a manufacturing and fabrication facility in southern Wisconsin as promised by both Trump and the company in 2017.
