Triangle Grading And Paving To Mentor Minority Firm For Camp Lejeune, N.C., Project

Aug. 31, 2012 - PRLog -- BURLINGTON, N.C. – A.D. “Jack” Bailey, vice president of Triangle Grading And Paving, Inc. (http://www.trianglegradingpaving.com), has announced that the company has entered into a mentor/protégé agreement with Palmetto Civil Group, LLC, a Charleston, S.C., firm owned by Joey H. Jefferson. Triangle will mentor Palmetto for an $8.87 million project at Camp Lejeune, N.C. for the 2nd Intel Headquarters Campus of the U.S. Marine Corps. Palmetto is a subcontractor for the project under Turner Construction Company, an international design build firm based in Washington, D.C.

Under Triangle’s mentoring program, Palmetto will furnish project management and assist in the concrete paving. Triangle will perform most of the other site construction. The project is scheduled to be completed in two years.

The experience between Palmetto and Triangle will help in performing the project on time and in budget. The two firms first teamed up previously on a taxiway extension project in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Triangle has long been known to foster relationships with minority firms to help them reach their goals of growth and maturity as self-sustaining construction companies.

QUOTES:
“We are excited about the mentor program and teaming up with Palmetto Civil Group again,” said Bailey  “Both of our companies will gain a valuable experience from this project.”
