Smith & Company, Inc. (SCI) stands as a beacon of excellence in the realm of site development and highway construction since its inception in 1983. Founded by Stephen W. Smith in South Florida, the company emerged from humble beginnings with just two pieces of machinery, yet quickly recognized the burgeoning need for professional land engineering services amidst the rapid growth in the region. SCI marked its early success by partnering with the Arvida Corporation to transform over 10,000 acres of the Everglades into the City of Weston, a monumental $375 million endeavor spanning nearly two decades.
Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, SCI continued to build upon its growing reputation, tackling significant projects such as the Pembroke Falls development, which saw the transformation of swamp land into a thriving community featuring over 2,085 residences, schools, and commercial establishments. The company's capability to manage large-scale projects efficiently was further demonstrated in its work on various Florida Department of Transportation projects, notably a $48 million bridge replacement project on I-4 completed in just over 14 months.
Over the years, SCI has consistently showcased its expertise in tackling both large and community-focused projects, completing notable developments such as the I-75 express lanes and multiple initiatives in Pasco County totaling over $24 million. As of recent years, the firm has successfully managed construction projects valued in the millions, ranging from roadworks in Port St. Lucie to various commercial developments.
With a committed workforce, a proven management team, and a comprehensive set of capabilities, Smith & Company has built a reputation for delivering projects on time and within budget. Its approach emphasizes innovation, dedicated team assembly for each project, and up-to-date equipment, ensuring optimal performance and efficient resource management. This steadfast commitment to quality has positioned SCI as a premier contracting company in the Treasure Coast area, continually exceeding client expectations for nearly four decades.
