No one knows convention centers better than Hunt Construction Group. For decades, we have been providing construction management/general contracting services for numerous convention centers throughout the country.
A convention center or civic arena is much more than brick and mortar. It has the power to attract major local, state, national and international events. It can serve as the magnetic force behind future economic development. And, it can literally help revitalize community activity and bring life to an otherwise stagnant downtown district. No city in America should be without one.
Hunt Construction Group is a member of the International Association of Assembly Managers (IAAM) and is a proud sponsor of the Annual Conference & Trade Show.

Hunt Construction Group has been very instrumental in major issues on-site from preconstruction services to design input for constructability issues, code issues, permitting, trade contracts and the priority of keeping the project within the budget and on schedule. In addition, Hunt's lead, the OCCC Joint Venture has done a superior job in working through major design coordination on mechanical, electrical and plumbing components in the project. Their effort and input to the Design Team has been a tremendous benefit to the project.
