North Virginia Commercial Construction Company Named ABC Accredited Quality Contractor for Safety, Education and Culture

CHANTILLY, VA, UNITED STATES, November 7, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Scott-Long Construction, a leader in the development and construction industry since 1961, announced that it has once again been named an Accredited Quality Contractor (AQC) by Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), for its commitment to corporate responsibility. Only 525 of the nation's elite merit shop construction contractors earned the credential in 2023.

"We are pleased to be recognized once again as an Accredited Quality Contractor by the ABC," said John Scott, CEO of the North Virginia commercial construction company, Scott-Long. "Our team's dedicated commitment to safety, education, and culture is at the heart of what we do and is the number one reason we are so successful."

ABC's AQC credential provides recognition to industry-leading construction firms that have documented their commitment in five areas:
- Quality
- Health and Safety Performance
- Talent Management, Including Inclusion, Diversity and Merit
- Craft and Management Education
- Community Relations

"Every day, the leaders and employees of Scott-Long Construction put in the work and make the decisions that deliver the highest-quality construction services to their communities and embody the highest level of corporate achievement," said Michael Bellaman, ABC president and CEO. "Accredited Quality Contractors are top-performing ABC contractor members that set the standard for safety, culture, workforce development, innovation, merit and quality in the contracting community."

In earning the AQC credential, each member company commits to industry-leading health and safety by achieving the Gold, Platinum or Diamond level in ABC's STEP Safety Management System. Earlier this month, Scott-Long Construction achieved the DIAMOND level.
