The Construction Source

Another major customer of Pickard Construction has been Hydro One. In 2010, they creat- ed zone contracts for the prov- ince, and Pickard was awarded the contract for Zone 5, which roughly covers the areas from Owen Sound to Huntsville. In 2016, Pickard renewed that Zone 5 contract, while also pick- ing up Zone 1, which goes from Owen Sound west to Windsor. Those contracts and projects represent some of Pickard Con- struction’s major milestones – but over the years, the compa- ny has worked with many other clients, large and small, on a variety of projects. Their ap- proach has always been to “go where the work is and do the things a lot of companies don’t want to do.” These days, Pickard Construc- tion still very much maintains that approach. They place a lot of value in having a diverse array of work and clients, and their team takes a lot of pride in their ability to tackle any chal- lenge. “It’s important to us that everybody benefits. Everybody should be on the winning team.” JULY 2020
