At Orion Construction, we are a commercial contractor dedicated to creating a positive impact in every project we build. Founded in 2000, our company has over two decades of experience in transforming our clients' visions into realities. As a team of construction experts, we align our resources, knowledge, and experience with the vision of our clients and their stakeholders, creating a shared vision that is reinforced by creative solutions and a dedication to the people we serve.
Our Story
Our journey began over 20 years ago when a small group of construction professionals came together to form Orion Construction in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As the business grew, so did our commitment to quality work and positive client relationships. In 2011, Roger Rehkopf joined our team, bringing with him over 25 years of experience in construction-related project management and business development. Under Roger's leadership, our company flourished, and we expanded our team to include innovative thinkers with diverse skill sets.
Our Mission
At Orion Construction, our mission is to create enjoyable construction experiences for our clients. We believe in turning visions into realities that benefit our communities, team, and clients. We strive to build projects that have a positive economic and social impact, inspiring progress and helping people realize their full potential.
Community Involvement
We understand that creating a positive social impact begins in the communities we serve. That's why we actively seek and support various charities, non-profits, and programs that work to build better societies sustainably. Our philanthropic involvement begins at an individual level, with our staff engaged in in-person volunteer work, events, and financial support. We are grateful to be able to help make communities even better.
Safety
At Orion Construction, safety is embedded in our culture. We work hard to maintain our Diamond STEP Award, the highest-level safety benchmark awarded by Associated Contractors and Builders. Our commitment to safety is reinforced every day on the job site, and we prioritize the safety of our team and all involved.
