Consolidated Construction Co. After more than 75 years, our values continue to drive our actions, which are centered on giving customers a quality experience as we make their vision a reality.

We're mourning the loss of one of Consolidated's second generation leaders: Bill Novotny. Joining his father and uncle's company in his early career and then leading Consolidated in the 1980's and 90's, Bill was a strong, centered presence with an even keel and a coach's mindset.

Bill was instrumental in establishing Consolidated's design-build project delivery model (somewhat revolutionary at the time), and although he preferred pen and paper over spreadsheets, he embraced new ideas and led the company into the current millennium as a cornerstone business, helping hundreds of companies grow through their buildings.

Thank you, Bill. Rest easy. And keep it in the fairway up there.

Happy 10th Anniversary of your headquarters, Werner!

Consolidated designed and built this 200,000 square foot regional distribution center with 45' eave heights and reinforced concrete to support a four-story automated pick system. In addition to gaining incredible new space in the warehouse, Werner opted for daylight windows, 16 air handlers and bright, energy efficient LED lighting throughout. We used specially sized roof members to support 20,000 square feet of photovoltaic cells as a showcase item and energy conservation measure. An additional 65,000 square feet was dedicated to a new two-story headquarters, expansive lobby, GIANT training auditorium, and even a retail outlet store.

It was an award winner, and we're happy to see you thriving in it!

We stuffed the SUV!!

In just over a week, our Appleton office collected enough supplies to fill our company SUV. Now we'll deliver the much needed personal hygiene items and new bedding, pillows, and towels to volunteers for the Menasha Joint School District, who are responding to and supporting dozens of families affected by the recent tornado.

Thank you CCC team for supporting this impromptu supply drive and helping the Menasha community prepare for the new school year.

We did!

It’s a season of growth here at Consolidated.

Please join us in congratulating Gene Schleusner and Brian Gebauer on their promotions to President and Chief Operating Officer, respectively. This leadership change will help guide Consolidated into its next chapter and is a part of an intentional succession plan ahead of the retirements of current President Pam Talavera, and CEO John Schneider at the end of 2026.

Here's to new beginnings, continued growth, and great opportunities ahead!
