2/12/2009, Quincy, MA — J. Calnan and Associates is pleased to announce that it was recently recognized in the Boston Business Journal’s prestigious Book of Lists in three different categories – Area’s Largest Private Companies, Area’s Fastest Growing Private Companies and Area’s Largest Corporate Charitable Contributors.

Founded just over 12 years ago, Quincy-based J. Calnan & Associates has quickly become one of New England’s leading preconstruction and construction management firms. “I am extremely proud of the recognition our team has received and believe it stems from our service-oriented corporate philosophy. We continue to put the client first, assembling the best group for each project and working closely with a wide network of partners to deliver exceptional results that surpass expectations. Clients like Reebok, NESN, The MathWorks and General Electric continue to work with us because of this overwhelming commitment to client service that I am confident will continue to drive our company’s growth in the years ahead,” said Jay Calnan, President.

 

JC&A is grateful for the company’s success and gives back to the community in a number of ways; the company contributes time and financial resources to several non-profit organizations and its associates are active supporters of a host of charities. Whether building a pirate ship themed tree house for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Massachusetts, assembling a team for the American Heart Association’s annual Heart Walk or delivering holiday gifts to the Italian Home for Children, J. Calnan & Associates cares about its communities. “Being ranked as one of the Area’s Largest Private Companies, as well as one of the Area’s Fastest Growing Private Companies among the likes of Fidelity Investments, International Data Group and New Balance Athletic Shoe is something we’re very proud of as an organization,” said Calnan. “However, we take special pride in being ranked among the top Corporate Charitable Contributors.”
