Adolfson & Peterson Construction Jumps 30 Spots to #66 in ENR’s Top 400, Fueled by Mission-Critical Growth and National Expansion

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Adolfson & Peterson Construction (AP), a leading national construction management firm, has climbed 30 spots in Engineering News-Record’s (ENR) 2026 Top 400 Contractors ranking. Rising from #96 to #66 in a single year, marking one of the most significant year-over-year advances among the nation’s top contractors.

The ranking reflects a 42% increase in awarded work within the last year, driven by AP’s targeted expansion through satellite offices and sustained momentum in the mission-critical and manufacturing sectors.

AP earned recognition across multiple ENR categories:

• #66 on ENR’s Top 400 Contractors
• #50 on ENR’s Top 100 Contractors by New Contracts
• #37 on ENR’s Top 50 in Domestic Building/Manufacturing Revenue
• 2026 Colorado and Wyoming Contractor of the Year

“This 30-place rise is a powerful reflection of what our teams are accomplishing every day for clients across the country,” said Brad Hendrickson, CEO. “We’ve made deliberate investments into our people and our growth; to see that translate into recognition at this level is something our entire organization should be proud of.”

AP’s rise in the national rankings builds on a year of significant recognition. ENR also named AP its 2026 Colorado and Wyoming Contractor of the Year, citing the company’s sustained growth, expanding market presence, and commitment to deliver exceptional projects while investing in its people. Together, these honors reflect the momentum AP continues to build across both its regional operations and national footprint.

Built on more than 80 years of industry experience and a people-first culture, AP has earned its reputation as a trusted construction partner, and with its strongest growth trajectory in decades, the best may still be ahead.
