Tutor Perini Corporation: История и Деятельность Американского Строительного Гиганта

U. S. construction company

Tutor Perini Corporation (formerly Perini Corporation) is one of the largest general contractors in the United States. At the end of 2013, it reported annual revenue of approximately $4.2 billion. Tutor Perini is headquartered in Sylmar, California, and works on construction projects throughout North America. Specific areas of focus are civil infrastructures such as bridges, highways, tunnels, airports, and mass transit systems, building infrastructure (healthcare, education, municipal government, hospitality and gaming, multi use, office towers, multi unit residential towers, high technology projects), and specialty contracting (electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning and ventilation (HVAC), fire protection systems, concrete placement).

In 1949, Albert G. Tutor launched a family construction business, A. G. Tutor Company, Inc. His son Ronald joined the company in 1963, and the company expanded under his leadership. In 1972 the company partnered with N. M. Saliba. In 1981 Ron Tutor took the reins as president of the Tutor Saliba Corporation.

Perini Corporation was founded in 1894 in Ashland, Massachusetts by a stonemason named Bonfiglio Perini. The company grew to become one of the region's most recognized heavy construction contractors. From 1931 to 2009, Perini was headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts. Under the direction of Bonfiglio's grandson, Lou Perini, the company moved into the real estate business, developing in Palm Beach County, Florida. Later real estate ventures were less successful, leaving Perini deeply in debt by the mid 1990s.

In 1997, Ron Tutor helped Perini Corp. recapitalize alongside investor Richard Blum. Tutor became CEO of Perini in 2000 and merged Perini with Tutor Saliba in 2008 in a transaction valued at $862 million. Perini was listed on the NYSE on April 1, 2004. It was headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts until relocating to Sylmar, California in 2009. In May 2009, Perini shareholders voted to change the company's name to Tutor Perini Corporation. Tutor Perini issued $300 million of Senior Notes in October 2010. Tutor Perini proceeded to acquire six companies over the next nine months.

In 2003, Perini acquired Florida based James A. Cummings. In 2005, the company acquired Cherry Hill Construction, a Maryland based contractor, and California based Rudolph & Sletten, Inc.

This design build project expanded the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) system 8 miles into San Mateo County from the existing Colma City station to the San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and terminating at the new Millbrae station. The project route required that the northern portion of the line be placed underground using a cut and cover approach. The southern half of the alignment ran parallel to the Caltrain Corridor, which remained in active service throughout construction for freight and passenger traffic. Service to the airport was created by raising the BART line onto an elevated section that crossed the Caltrain Corridor and a sensitive wetlands area then connected to a Caltrans crossing of the US Highway 101, where it ties into an elevated station at the airport that is integrated with the airport people mover system (also built by Tutor Perini Corporation for SFO).
