JG Development is an employee-owned construction company based in Madison, Wisconsin, founded by Jeff Grundahl in 1990. Initially focusing on residential building, the company has expanded its services to encompass a wide array of construction projects, including commercial and nonprofit facilities. The transition to an Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) in 2018 signifies a commitment to its employees, giving them a vested interest in the company's success and providing financial security for their future. This employee ownership model fosters a collaborative and positive work environment, enabling the team to deliver exceptional quality and service to clients.
JG Development operates through several specialized divisions. Brio Design Homes focuses on custom home design and building. Vive Home Transformations specializes in home renovations and additions. National Construction caters to churches and nonprofits, ensuring that their facilities meet specific community needs. NCI-Roberts Construction, a recent acquisition, is dedicated to commercial projects, including the construction of restaurants and retail spaces. Together, these divisions uphold the company's vision: to build quality structures that enhance the lives of those who live, work, and serve in their communities.
Over the years, JG Development has received numerous local, regional, and national awards, recognizing its commitment to excellence and client satisfaction. The workforce, comprising about 60 professionals, emphasizes integrity, accountability, and teamwork. This commitment to both employee welfare and top-notch construction services sets JG Development apart as a leader in the Wisconsin construction industry. With a focus on building long-lasting relationships with clients, JG Development aims to ensure every project is not just about construction, but also about trust and community engagement.
