The joint venture comprises several other partners including BOWA Construction, Core, CMCI, EJ Smith Construction, GCC Enterprises, Pienado Construction, and Source Partners.

Other companies including Acari Management Group, Byrne Construction Services, Copeland Contracting Company, LeVis Consulting Group, Mahuya Industries, Othon, RM Chin & Associates, and STL Engineers are also involved.
