Join us in congratulating Lane Umbarger on his feature in the Wichita Business Journal’s 2026 Young Professionals series!

We’re excited to welcome George Varga to Conco as our FPG Service Project Manager!

We’re excited to welcome Dawn Shepler to Conco as our Business Development & Community Engagement Manager!

Dawn brings more than 30 years of experience building trusted relationships across corrections, behavioral health, nonprofit leadership and philanthropy. Her ability to bring people together and turn strong partnerships into meaningful community impact makes her a great addition to our team.

We look forward to the relationships she’ll build and the opportunities she’ll help create for Conco and the communities we serve.

Welcome to the team, Dawn Shepler

Today, we celebrate the hard work, craftsmanship and dedication of the people who build and strengthen our communities.

And knowing the Conco team, there’s a good chance some of you are spending the day tackling a project at home, helping out a friend, or family member.

Whatever you’re working on (or hopefully not working on), we appreciate all that you do.

Progress is taking shape at Hotel Indigo.

With demolition complete, framing is going up and plumbing rough-ins are underway as our crews continue building out the Hotel Indigo interior.

It’s an exciting stage of construction, when plans on paper start becoming rooms, corridors and spaces you can actually walk through.

Stay tuned as Hotel Indigo continues to take shape across the street from the Wichita Biomedical Campus.

Built in 1976. Still going strong. 🎉

Join us in wishing a very Happy 50th Birthday to Conco Construction President & CEO Ryan Pearson!

Ryan's leadership, vision, and commitment to our people continue to help shape where Conco is headed, and we're excited about everything still ahead.

Happy 50th, Ryan!

While students were enjoying summer break, we were helping Butler Community College get ready for the fall semester with a new look.

Conco Construction recently completed the new entry plaza hardscape, including updated walkways, irrigation, and retaining walls designed to create a more welcoming and functional space for students, faculty, and visitors.

Projects like this are about more than concrete and sitework. They're about creating spaces that connect people, improve functionality, and enhance the daily campus experience.

It takes a lot of different hands to build a building. Many of them are ours.

Metal framing. Drywall finishing. Masonry.

These are just a few of the skilled trades our self-performing crews deliver every day.

By employing our own craftspeople, we maintain greater control over quality, schedule, and coordination; ensuring every detail reflects the pride and craftsmanship our clients expect.

This is what it means to self-perform.
