Turner Construction Company Achieves Historic Growth in the First Half of 2025

Record backlog, work-in-place, and workforce size highlight strategic momentum across key markets.

Turner Construction Company achieved new records for the first half of 2025 across several business metrics including backlog, revenue, and a workforce that now exceeds 14,000 people. 

Turner’s revenue rose by 44% from the same period last year, totaling $13.4 billion. Leading sectors include data centers, healthcare, commercial, and education. 

Turner’s project backlog increased 21% year-over-year and has surpassed $39 billion. This reflects strong demand in strategic markets: $12.6 billion in data centers, $6.6 billion in healthcare, $4.1 billion in education, and $3.5 billion in sports and entertainment. 

“The incredible success of our company comes from our people,” said Peter Davoren, Chairman and CEO, Turner Construction Company. “Our ability to grow, deliver at scale, and expand our workforce is rooted in the strength of our culture. We have a workplace defined by active caring—where people can be at their best, be authentic, and be treated with respect and dignity. This enables us to attract and retain outstanding talent, and it’s why Turner is consistently recognized as a great place to work.”

Turner is building iconic projects, including:

NFL stadiums for the Buffalo Bills and Tennessee Titans
A state-of-the-art data center in Pennsylvania
The transformative One Beverly Hills development in California
A major expansion of the Tier 2 Concourse East at Washington Dulles International Airport
The Cleveland Clinic Neurological Institute in Ohio
The Red Deer Regional Hospital Expansion and Renovation project in Canada

Turner’s growth is a direct result of its strategy to serve clients in strong and high-growth markets while increasing delivery of its service offerings, including technical engineering expertise, supply chain solutions, self-perform capabilities, and offsite construction. 

In addition, the acquisition of Dornan this year is playing a key role in supporting Turner’s growth, enhancing our capacity to deliver complex projects in mission-critical sectors and strengthening our position across key markets in Europe.
