Day & Zimmermann Acquires ECI Construction

The acquisition of ECI combines the design and construction expertise of Day & Zimmermann's Mason & Hanger business with ECI's general contracting skills to create an integrated full-service design/build firm focused on serving the U.S. military. The ECI facility, based in Stilwell, KS, will remain fully operational.

 "ECI's integration with Mason & Hanger perfectly positions us to further capitalize on the military's growing preference for contracting companies who provide a full spectrum of services," says Mick McAreavy, President, Engineering & Field Services for Day & Zimmermann. "Combining both firms' successful track records with federal projects will only strengthen our military portfolio, and help us meet the evolving needs of our key customers. Furthermore, maintaining ECI's current location will help fulfill Day & Zimmermann's desire to expand geographically. And now with access to the great talent and booming marketplace in Kansas City, we fully anticipate taking our business to the next level."
