Philadelphia-based Day & Zimmermann, a construction and maintenance, engineering, staffing, and defense solutions provider, recently purchased Ohio-based Davis-Pickering Co. Contractors, an union labor construction company.

The purchase expands the company’s presence in the industrial, solar, and commercial sectors and its Maintenance and Construction division’s general construction capabilities in civil, electrical, structural, and piping work.

“Utilities and industrial customers alike are struggling to find highly skilled, qualified talent to run their projects,” said John McCormick, Maintenance and Construction division president. “Now more than ever, it’s critical for companies like ours to have knowledgeable, experienced teams to deliver even the most complex customer projects on schedule and on budget without sacrificing first-time quality or safety. With this acquisition, we are able to grow our team of experts while strengthening our world-class service offerings.”

The Maintenance and Construction division helps plants and facilities in the nuclear, fossil, solar, government sector, chemical, pulp and paper, and other industrial markets lower costs through innovative maintenance, construction, and specialty services and solutions.

Davis-Pickering Co. Contractors is a construction provider in the Ohio Valley. CEO Dustin Flinn and the management team will join Day & Zimmermann.

River Town Electric, a solar design, installation, and maintenance service provider, also was included in the acquisition.
