“Florida is the place to be if you are in the design and construction industry”! That was the resounding message that came out of a recent luncheon hosted by the Florida Design and Construction Professionals (FLDCP), featuring Bob Moss, Founder of Moss Construction. With projects in 22 states over the past 19 years, Moss Construction has established itself as a leader in the industry, with a commitment to core values, non-negotiable standards, and a strong culture.

During the luncheon, Moss emphasized the importance of culture in the industry, noting that it is critical to have a team of wonderful, smart, and hardworking people who treat each other with love and respect. This commitment to culture has helped the company establish strong relationships with clients and prospects, which have been key to its success. Moss also stressed the importance of project diversity, which he believes is critical to the long-term success of any construction company.

Moss Construction’s commitment to renewable energy is also a big driver of its success. The company’s solar office has been a key factor in its ability to complete projects in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way. However, Moss also noted that the industry faces challenges, including rising costs and the need to adapt to changing market conditions. In this context, he emphasized the importance of adaptability, entrepreneurialism, and a willingness to listen and learn.

At the heart of Moss Construction’s success is its commitment to relationships and treating everyone with respect. According to Moss, there is nothing more important than honoring relationships with clients, partners, and team members. This includes being responsive to clients’ needs, rushing to the fire in times of crisis, and providing bonding capacity. However, Moss also stressed the importance of leadership and making good deals, as the entire team suffers if the leadership team makes a bad decision.
