We are excited to announce that MCMI has won two recent awards through Associated Builders and Contractors. The two awards that we received this year were:
Award of Excellence Pre Engineered Buildings $1M - $4M: NewPro Containers
Award of Excellence Institutional $1M - $6M: Fishers Central Green & Amphitheater Renovation
NewPro Containers
NewPro Containers is a manufacturer, importer, and national wholesale distributor of commercial grade plant containers. When the second‐generation owner, Jeremy Dearringer, upgraded from the 15,000 square foot office/ warehouse, he partnered with Myers Construction Management for his new 50,000 square foot Westfield building making room for growth while also providing a much better work environment for employees. Jeremy’s passion for improving the well‐being and job satisfaction of his employees and the specific shelving spacing was the driving force that MCMI used to construct the new American Buildings Company metal building. Using the principles of biophilic design, the practice of connecting people and nature within the built environment, the new facility boasts ample access to natural light including windows in the warehouse, full‐view overhead doors, and dock doors with windows in addition to LED lighting throughout. A seventeen‐foot living green wall was incorporated into the lobby area and can be seen from outside. Jeremy Dearringer hopes that his new mindfully constructed facility will act as inspiration for other facilities across the country.

Fishers Central Green & Amphitheater Renovation
MCMI constructed the Fishers Amphitheater in 2012. Fishers quickly realized they underestimated the popularity of their concert series and recognized the need to improve the Amphitheater stage in order to accommodate musicians and performers of all types. The Fishers Central Green project from start to finish was on an accelerated schedule as Fishers wanted to start their outdoor concert season in July with a bid date in January of that year. Stripping the site in late winter, having 40+ days of rain and/or snow, and then coordinating the sequencing of site utilities, buried electrical, irrigation mainlines, before hauling in 500 loads of fill proved to be a challenge! All this being done while the actual Stage Structure was gutted and rebuilt to its larger footprint. Towards the completion of the project, the speaker conduits, underdrains, site concrete, and irrigation fingers were all installed while finishing touches were being performed at the new Stage. The sod was installed 36 hours before the first concert! Myers Construction Management, their Subcontractors and Meyer Najem, acting as the Construction Manager, all put in long hours and weekends which allowed the project to be completed in time for Fishers to open for their concert season.
