Company History EAS Contracting can trace its beginnings back to the first major expansion of DFW Airport
in 1982. That contract was for the addition of the two outside runways along with two new
taxiway bridges to connect the East and West airfields. Carroll Edwards was the field superintendent for Collier Electric Company at that time and
that is where he first met the Jaquith team of Scott Brunner and Bill Schai. This partnership
of sharing knowledge and experiences has been a tremendous asset to both of our firms.
EAS Contracting was founded in November of 2002, however the entire team had actually been working together for 15 years at Walker Engineering and Encompass Electrical
Technologies. When EAS opened its doors they had over 75 years of combined airfield
lighting and NAVAIDS installation experience.

this resource we are committed to providing a safe workplace while delivering the highest

and with good construction industry practices. Our managers and supervisors will support
this safety program and will be held accountable for meeting its objectives EAS Contracting believes all incidents and injuries are preventable. Toward that end, the company will strive to continuously improve its safety processes, procedures and training practices. There is an important role in this program for all of us and everyone is expected to join together to make EAS Contracting a successful, accident-free and healthy place to work.
Sub-Contracting Throughout
our construction history, we have teamed with many sub-contractors. Most
of
these sub-contractors have been small business entities. EAS has
the resources and
experience to assist our sub-contractors with
project management processes, interpretation
of plans and specifications
and cost saving construction methods.
EAS
is committed to the utilization of DBE sub-contractors, suppliers and
other small and emerging business enterprises. We have engaged and
teamed with many DBE sub-contractors and suppliers to construct
projects at all of the major airports in the State of Texas, as well as several
other locations. Due to our proven experience of working with DBE firms,
EAS can commit to and generally exceed project specified DBE
goals. |
