Canada’s Best Managed Companies. The
widely-known business awards program,
sponsored by Deloitte, CIBC, National Post,
Queen’s School of Business and MacKay
CEO Forums, recognizes excellence in Ca-
nadian owned and managed companies.
It was just announced in early March that
CCI had requalified for 2014.
“It’s a great recognition for the team at
CCI. The process itself is very detailed and
really makes you think about your business
and culture,” Dupuis said. “It also allowed
us to draw a road map for everybody at
CCI so that they understand what the cor-
porate goals are and how each CCI mem-
ber plays a part in that goal. Another item
that it brought to light is our shortcomings
and where we need to improve to make
CCI one of the best places to work.”
MANY AWARDS, INCLUDING
BEST MANAGED
The company’s innovative work has earned
additional awards as well, including making
the list of Top 50 Trenchless Design Firms
in North America and the Fast Growth
50, which ranks Alberta’s fastest-growing
companies. They were also included in
the Profit 200: Canada’s Fastest-Growing
Companies list, which puts the spotlight
on the top growing companies in Canada.
Being part of the Best Managed process
has helped CCI focus on the future, which
has led to the development of a three-,
five- and 10-year business plan for the
company. In the next five years, they hope
to acquire additional companies and grow
them based on the business model that
has brought success to CCI. Over the next
two decades, a substantial amount of ag-
ing municipal infrastructure will need to be
replaced or refurbished, particularly along
the eastern U.S. coast. Growth will con-
tinue throughout Canada and the United
States, adding new clients and taking on a
wider range of projects.
“(Growth) always comes with its challeng-
es of course; it’s a lot of work but with the
right plan and the right people, it’s just a
matter of working together and executing
that plan. We’re looking forward to it.”
