Story Continued
In our Great Lakes Region, Ryan is known to be a top performer, the company you can trust to do it right the first time, who will take on a complicated project and the one who builds lasting relationships. It is this culture that guides each regional office and that sets Ryan apart from the competition. Our employees are the best, and our customers are the beneficiaries. With comments like “Ryan is the best I’ve ever worked with” and “When they tell me something will get done, I never worry because they deliver in spades,” our repeat business is well above 70%.
The Great Lakes team actively gives back to the communities in which we do business. Ryan’s employees are frequent volunteers and leaders, contributing time and resources to community organizations. Ryan has been instrumental in building and maintaining facilities for local non-profits, helping to address community issues as vital and diverse as health care, housing, family assistance and more.
Part of our culture is not only to be an active part of our society, but to help shape it. We are community leaders in our team involvement in charitable causes as well as in our quest for sustainable design and in our commitment to alternative energy. Our Great Lakes team embraces Ryan's commitment to the environment. With numerous LEED certified projects in our portfolio, we have recently celebrated the silver-level LEED certification of the Rosemont Corporate Center in Rosemont, Ill. Other local projects anticipated to receive LEED certification include: Delta Dental of Illinois, Naperville, Ill., LEED-NC Silver; Northern Illinois Food Bank, Geneva, Ill., LEED-NC Gold; Deere & Company Corporate Headquarters, Moline, Ill., LEED-CI Silver; and Ryan Companies US, Inc., Naperville, Ill., LEED-CI Silver.
