Small Business Administration's (SBA) 8(a) Business Development Program

Did you know that the Small Business Administration's (SBA) 8(a) Business Development Program was created to help small, disadvantaged, minority-owned businesses compete and work with the federal government? The 8(a) program offers excellent contract opportunities to small, disadvantaged companies.

During the nine-year 8 (a) program, participants can be awarded sole-source contracts up to $4.5 million for goods and services and $7 million for manufacturing and compete in larger 8(a) set-aside contracts.

Companies certified as 8(a) can also participate in the SBA's Mentor-Protégé program. Additionally, they can form Joint Ventures with larger contractors to compete for 8(a) and other competitive contracts.

8(a) Program Qualifications and Certification Requirements

The 8(a) certification requires participation approval, annual compliance, and reporting. To qualify for the program, a company must be owned and controlled by at least 51% of socially and economically disadvantaged United States citizens. The personal net requirement is less than $850K, excluding certain assets. The average adjusted gross income must be $400K or less, and the total assets must be $6.5 million or less.

During the nine-year program, 8(a) contractors must demonstrate progress. The first four months are considered the development stage. Advancement must also be displayed during years 5-9, the transitional stage. The 8(a) contractor must show progression from sole-source awards and 8(a) competitive contracts transitioning to non-8a revenue. 8(a) contractors must also comply with small business size requirements to maintain eligibility for contract awards.

How to Apply for the 8(a) Program?

You must meticulously plan and prepare your SBA 8(a) application to gain approval. Follow 8(a) certification checklists to ensure your documents meet the program requirements in fact and appearance.

In addition to completing the online application, you must submit the following documents:

1. Prior income tax returns

2. Financial statements

3. Your company history

4. Personal financial statements

How to Apply for SBA Certification?

The company owner may complete the application on the SBA website. However, you may also benefit from financial advice. Your accountant or CPA can help you review your documents before submission.

The SBA Yearly Reporting and Compliance Requirements

The SBA monitors progress through annual reviews, business planning, and regular evaluations.

The 8(a) participants must submit the Form 1450-8(a) Annual Update Review. Based on the 8(a)'s annual program year, businesses must disclose specific company data to remain in the program, including:

1. Progress on meeting goals

2. Personal yearly financial statements, including your net worth

3. The fair market value of all assets

4. Personal income

5. Excessive withdrawal limitations

In addition, company financial statements are required. 8(a) participants who make over $10 million in revenue must submit an annual audited financial statement within 120 days of the company's fiscal year.

The 8(a) participants with revenue between $2M and $10M must submit annual reviewed financial statements within 90 days of the company's fiscal year. Finally, 8(a) participants with less than $2M in revenue must provide an annual in-house or compiled financial statement within 90 days after the close of the company's fiscal year.

A Proactive Approach to Construction Safety

Does your company take a reactive or proactive approach to construction safety? Most companies' safety programs combine the two methods, being proactive in some ways but reactive in other aspects.

Here are some best practices to implement in your safety program to take a proactive approach to safety:

1. Empower everyone on the job site, regardless of position, with the authority to issue a stop-work for any perceived safety concerns. Only allow work to resume once the issue has been adequately addressed.

2. Create a safety plan specific to the project and site. Do this in conjunction with the creation of the construction plan. As you plan how to build and deliver the project, plan how to keep your workers safe as construction progresses through each task and phase.

3. Monitor, evaluate, and adjust. As work progresses, conditions can change drastically from one day to another. Understanding how changing conditions can create new safety hazards is essential. Continuous improvements to safety measures need to be made based on the most up-to-date information on job site conditions.

4. Training should be an ongoing activity for all employees. Train workers on the safe and proper way to operate equipment and select and use personal protective equipment (PPE). Remember, workers don't have to be in an accident to suffer an injury. Be sure to train workers on proper techniques to perform tasks that create the least stress on their bodies.

5. Create a safety committee to review safety performance on all projects. Ensure that employees from all levels of the business are involved, especially craft laborers. They have first-hand experience with how safety measures are being implemented on the site and can provide vital feedback on areas of concern that must be addressed. They should have a voice in helping choose which safety measures to implement to control and mitigate hazards.

6. Fully vet all subcontractors on their safety records and ask them to review their written safety program. Once selected, work with subcontractors to help develop the safety plan, as they can provide valuable insight specific to their trade. Ensure subcontractor agreements cover adhering to your site safety plan so you can hold them accountable.

7. Hold safety meetings each day or before each shift to cover specific tasks, safety measures and protocols, and any areas of concern. Be sure to discuss existing and any new hazards that may arise throughout the day and how to avoid them.

8. Go beyond a compliance-driven approach to safety. Work to identify additional safety measures and precautions you can take to protect your workers better and prevent accidents.

9. Investigate all accidents and near misses to identify the root causes. Focus less on who was responsible and more on how and why the accidents or near misses occurred. Understanding the root cause can better develop solutions to prevent accidents from happening again and better protect your workers.

10. Incentive programs should encourage workers to adopt a proactive approach to construction safety. They should encourage workers to speak up and report unsafe conditions or work behavior. They should promote safe working practices rather than encouraging workers not to report incidents.

11. Conduct routine safety audits. The safety manager can either do these internally or hire an outside third party to review your safety program and practices.

Invest in improving your safety program, such as investing in new equipment or tools to improve your business. Taking a proactive approach to safety can lead to improved productivity and increase the quality of work. Companies with solid safety records tend to have better employee morale and a positive reputation in their field.

The Lafourche Basin Levee District in Vacherie, LA

Greenup Industries is delighted to have the North Lafourche Levee District in Vacherie, Louisiana, as a client.

Did you know? The North Lafourche Levee District was formed by an Act of the Louisiana Legislature in 1992. This state board has been responsible for improving flood protection on the west side of Bayou Lafourche from the Intracoastal Waterway in Larose to the northern edge of the Parish.

In 2006, through a statewide re-organization of levee boards, the North Lafourche Levee District was given additional jurisdiction over the east side of Bayou Lafourche, again from the Intracoastal Waterway in Larose to the northern end of Lafourche Parish. This area of the Parish was previously under the jurisdiction of the Lafourche Basin Levee District. The North Lafourche Levee District is now all of Lafourche Parish north of the Intracoastal Canal.

The North Lafourche Levee District works to improve drainage and enhance flood protection for 65,000 residents north of the Intracoastal Waterway in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. The District includes over 250 miles of levees and drainage canals and over 40 pump stations.

The map above is divided into the Levee District's eight defined Project Areas.

COMMUNICATION VITAL IN CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS S

Communication is vital in the construction industry because it can help ensure a project's success: 

• Safety: Poor communication can lead to injuries and accidents. To prevent accidents, hand signals are used to communicate with crane operators. 

• Project outcomes: Effective communication helps ensure project objectives are met, and it can improve collaboration and productivity. 

• Teamwork: Communication can help improve teamwork and morale. 

• Cost control: Miscommunication can lead to mistakes, rework, and additional costs. 

• Reputation: A history of delays, disputes, and accidents can damage a company's reputation. 

• Project status: Communication helps everyone understand the project's status. 

• Decision-making: Communication facilitates timely decision-making. 

• Client expectations: Communication helps manage client expectations. 

For over 30 years, Greenup Industries has excelled at providing professional, specialized services and procurement support to a diverse clientele, including the oil and gas, construction, telecommunication, and other industries, as well as city, parish, state, and federal governments.

MYRTLE GROOVE LEVEE construction PROJECT update

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is continuing to make progress with the New Orleans to Venice (NOV) Hurricane Protection project in Plaquemines Parish, La. The purpose of the NOV project is to provide an improved levee system for storm risk reduction for Plaquemines Parish by repairing and restoring the original project levees, accelerating the completion of unconstructed portions of the authorized project, and armoring critical elements of the authorized project. The NOV federal levees are located on the east bank of Plaquemines from Phoenix to Bohemia and on the west bank from St. Jude to Venice.

Currently, along the La Reussite to Myrtle Grove levee reach, USACE is constructing approximately seven miles of new drainage canals and levees. USACE workers and their construction partners are placing embankment material at the site of the levee construction, slowly building up layers of soil and material for the levee. So far, 85% of the canal have been completed and approximately 50% of the levee has been built along this particular levee reach. This portion of the project is scheduled to be completed by calendar year 2026.

Commerce Department Announces New Construction Pledge

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge to bring more women into the construction workforce. Several leading construction companies have signed on to the Pledge, and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo is making an industry-wide call for more companies, unions, and training organizations to sign on to the Pledge.

By signing on to the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge, leaders in the industry are demonstrating an ongoing commitment to increase women’s access to training, jobs, and leadership opportunities. This follows an announcement made earlier this month launching the CHIPS Women in Construction Framework. Construction companies, unions, and training organizations can join the initiative by pledging to focus on or scale up equitable hiring and workforce development efforts that create broader pipelines and opportunities for women.  This industry-wide call to action encourages signers to voluntarily take action by utilizing best practices, including building community partnerships to reach women and girls, investing in solutions that increase supportive services such as child care, and fostering safe, healthy, and respectful workplaces.

“President Biden’s Investing in America agenda is creating a construction boom all over the country, and with that boom comes a huge increase in jobs and opportunities for workers in construction and the trades. But right now, women make up less than 11% of jobs in construction and only 4% in skilled trades. Many of these are good-paying, quality jobs you can get without a college degree, and women deserve equal opportunity for these jobs,” said Secretary Raimondo. “If we’re going to meet this moment, we need more women in the construction, and we need an industry-wide commitment, which is why I’m calling on everyone – contractors, labor unions, training organizations – to join our Community Pledge to commit to solutions and support proven strategies that help overcome barriers faced by women and underserved communities in construction and the trades.”

The announcement comes after a roundtable of construction industry leaders, convened by The Real Estate Roundtable and attended by Secretary Raimondo, to discuss the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge.

“The construction industry continues to face significant labor challenges due to the aging workforce and dwindling number of young people entering the construction field. There is a critical need to attract more talent and diversify our workforce to ensure we have the resources to build our cities and grow our economy,” said John Fish, Chair of The Real Estate Roundtable and Chairman and CEO of Suffolk. “Suffolk is honored and privileged to be one of the first companies to commit to Secretary Raimondo’s inspiring Million Women in Construction Pledge. As an organization that has long been committed to rebuilding the ratio of women in the construction industry, we are proud to play a leadership role in inspiring other organizations to commit to this effort and help position our American workforce for future growth and success.”

The Million Women in Construction initiative is a nationwide call to action for the construction industry – construction contractors, trade unions, and training institutions – to commit to bold steps that will ensure a robust and diverse workforce in the years ahead. It will be necessary to recruit, train, hire, and retain thousands of new and non-traditional workers – the next generation of skilled laborers and leaders who are prepared to rebuild U.S. infrastructure and supply chains and complement Federal government investments.

Facilities Maintenance - Protecting Your Pipes from Freezing Temperature

When we experience freezing temperatures in our typically warm, humid climates throughout the South, many residential homes and businesses are left wondering how to prevent frozen pipes. Greenup Industries specializes in In-Plant Property Management including Plumbing and Septic Maintenance, so we’ve asked our experts for a few tips that might help you when temperatures dip closer to freezing.

Safeguard Your Pipes
During freezing temperatures, your pipes are at high risk. If they freeze over, they can sometimes burst causing a lot of financial strain to fix or replace. In order to avoid this, let your sinks drip overnight. This helps prevent pipes from freezing. In addition, open cabinet doors to kitchen and bathroom sinks to allow warm air to protect and circulate around plumbing. Keep doors, windows and garages closed during these times, too, to better insulate and warm plumbing.

Exterior Pipes Need Different Protection
Spigots and outside pipes and plumbing require a bit of a different approach when preparing to prevent freezing. Wrap outside pipes in small towels and let drip if necessary. 

Prevent Frozen Septic Tanks 
Septic tanks freezing over can be an unimaginable mess for your business or home. To avoid dealing with what could be a severely foul occurrence, take the following precautions. Empty your septic tank. Yes, this is regular maintenance, but not always the first task people jump at when temperatures are already uncomfortably low. If a full tank freezes, this could cause a septic tank to burst. Another thing to consider is cracks and open areas. Be sure to inspect for any potential leaking as this could also invite more liquid to seep into the tank and cause bursting. And of course, keep water moving through the system if possible. Water in motion won’t freeze, so if your business is closed due to inclement weather, be sure to check back in daily and induce some motion through the system.

Greenup Industries is a full-service maintenance provider throughout the Gulf Coast Region. Let us help you prepare or fix issues concerning your plumbing. Contact us at info@greenupind.com or call us at 225-283-4843.

Five Tips to Improve Safety at Your Facility

To keep our contractors, vendors, full-time employees, or site visitors safe, Greenup Industries maps every on-site journey from when someone arrives until they sign out from the premises. For nearly a decade, we have learned much about the different safety and security requirements of various industries and organizations. Here are our top 5 safety and security recommendations:

Perform ongoing safety training. 

Providing safety training for employees is essential for creating a culture of workplace safety. A workforce with a strong understanding of safety guidelines and best practices is more likely to recognize potential hazards before they occur. This can lead to fewer injuries and help you avoid costly losses in productivity and employee morale.

Promote a good safety culture

Workplace safety starts with a strong safety culture, the collection of values and beliefs that employers and employees share concerning risks in the workplace. Effective leadership is critical because cultural change is complex and challenging. Leaders need to embrace the safety agenda and lead the efforts across the overall organization.

If you're committed to a safe work environment, find ways to get your employees onboard. Encourage employees to get to know the standards and to report potentially hazardous situations. The OSHA rules and regulations can be a stiff read, making your inductions or training interactive or video-based. 

Keep contractor records up to date.

To keep your site safe and secure, your contractors and vendors must keep their records up to date. Our proprietary software, Greenup Tracker, ensures all of our contractors and vendors have up-to-date records, including relevant qualifications, insurances, and other documents. Contractors and vendors can log in, edit their records, and keep them up to date.

Consider using photo ID scanning for Visitors. 

Providing touchless registration will ensure safer job sites for your workers. Registration, virtual orientations, virtual training, and automated health checklists can all be accessed through their photo ID card. 

This adds an extra layer of security and allows them to verify better people's identity coming on-site, but it also makes sign-in a lot faster.

Make sure your emergency response plan is not "one-size-fits-all." 

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) warns that workplace evacuations are more common than people think. There is a broad range of possible emergencies, including explosions, natural disasters, hazardous material releases, biological accidents, civil disturbances, or workplace violence. Your company needs more than a "one-size-fits-all" response plan.

Implement technology to protect lone worker safety

Lone worker safety applications (smartphone apps) can allow users to notify employers and emergency personnel to help locate a worker with a simple action such as pulling a wrist tether from an unlocked phone. Once signaled, the appropriate authorities are immediately dispatched to the worker's location through GPS monitoring. In addition, previously programmed information about the employee will be sent to the dispatch team, requiring the threatened worker to enter zero information while the event is taking place. There are several great apps available to protect your lone workers.

Going beyond compliance

Safety is a crucial enabler of business continuity, operational performance, and productivity. Effectively addressing these five areas will help organizations become safety compliant.

• Prevent workplace injuries

• Improve compliance with laws and regulations

• Reduce costs, including significant reductions in workers' compensation premiums

• Engage workers

• Enhance their social responsibility goals

• Increase productivity and enhance overall business operations

Employers will find that implementing these recommended practices brings other benefits. Studies show that when companies value safety, operational excellence will follow.

GREENUP INDUSTRIES' WORK WITH THE USACE TO FORTIFY LEVEES IN LOUISIANA

Louisiana receives many hurricanes, tropical storms, and severe weather as a coastal region on the Gulf of Mexico. This, combined with the low land level, the vast amount of wetlands, and floodplains, leads to an increased risk of flooding and storm surge flash flooding. The rainfall rate in Louisiana has increased within the past few decades. According to a rainfall study at Louisiana State University, the storms are shorter but are depositing rain faster, thereby increasing the risk and rate of flash flooding. The state also experiences a risk of flooding coming from the river delta systems, rainfall, inland storm surge flooding, and tidal wave and storm surge flooding.

COASTAL FLOODING AND HURRICANES

Louisiana has miles of coastal floodplains, wetlands, deltas, and waterways. When storm surges, hurricanes, heavy rainfall, and wind hit the land, these low-lying areas can easily be overwhelmed with floodwaters. Louisiana's water levels often rise when storms make landfall in a neighboring state. Every parish or county in Louisiana has experienced a significant weather event. Storm surges and flooding are the most dangerous aspects of hurricanes and coastal storms for Louisiana. The rapid rising of water is the leading cause of hurricane-related deaths in Louisiana. 

Hurricane Katrina was the most drastic and extreme example of how storm surges can overwhelm the region. However, hurricanes do not need to reach the magnitude of Katrina to endanger residents and cause large amounts of damage. As most recently seen in Hurricane Ida, there can be loss of life and billions of dollars of property damage from the effects of hurricanes, coastal storms, and flooding in Louisiana. 

Here is a list of hurricanes that have harmed Louisiana:

• Hurricane Katrina, August 2005

• Hurricane Rita, September 2005

• Hurricane Humberto, September 2007

• Hurricane Gustav, August 2008

• Hurricane Ike, September 2008

• Hurricane Ida, November 2009

• Hurricane Isaac, August 2012

• Hurricane Harvey, August 2017

• Hurricane Nate, October 2017

• Hurricane Barry, July 2019

• Hurricane Marco, August 2020

• Hurricane Laura, August 2020

• Hurricane Delta, October 2020

• Hurricane Zeta, October 2020

• Hurricane Ida, August 29, 2021

CAN FLOODING IN LOUISIANA BE PREVENTED LONG-TERM?

The state of Louisiana proposed a Coastal Master Plan in 2012. The Plan was updated in 2017 and will be updated again in 2023. 

Some examples of attempted or proposed solutions are:

• Construction and improvement of water management systems

• Developing communities on high ground

• Redirecting 100-year flood paths or plains away from populated areas with levees and water management systems

Most solutions aim to prevent the loss of life and property damage from flooding water and storms, not stop the storms or flooding. The goal is to better contain or redirect the floodwaters in the future.

GREENUP INDUSTRIES’ ROLE IN FORTIFYING AND BUILDING LEVEES

Greenup Industries works on a variety of industrial projects in multiple markets. Greenup's work continues on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) West Shore Lake Ponchartrain Levee stockpile projects and anticipates completing one project this summer. The West Shore Lake Ponchartrain Project will build and help fortify levees for storm protection.

Greenup's primary operations have been excavating, processing, and stockpiling clay in two areas within the Bonnet Carre Spillway. The company was awarded two contracts for stockpiling clay, a 20 million contract in January 2020 and the second contract for 17.9 million in November 2020.

The West Shore Lake Pontchartrain project is located in southeast Louisiana on the east bank of the Mississippi River in St. Charles, St. John the Baptist, and St. James Parishes in Southeast LA. The 760 million dollar project will span 18.5 miles, including 17.5 miles of levee, 1 mile of T-wall, four pumping stations, two drainage structures, and approximately 35 utility relocations. The structure will span from the Bonnet Carre Spillway to the Mississippi River Levee near Garyville and provide storm surge protection and improved resilience on the western shores of Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas. Construction of the project is funded through a state and federal cost-share, the feds will cover 65% of the project, and the state will perform work - design and construction - valued at their 35% share of the total project cost.

Greenup Industries reports that the company's work on the two contracts is progressing well. Greenup's primary role in the project has been excavating, processing, and stockpiling clay into two stockpiles inside the Bonnet Carre Spillway. The clay will be used to construct 17.5 miles of a levee system that offers a 100-year level risk reduction to the area between the Bonnet Carre spillway and Garyville. Greenup will have removed 1.5 million cubic yards of clay from the Spillway by the end of the project.

"We are honored to be part of the project that provides much-needed flood protection for the River Region. This project will provide peace of mind for the residents and business, especially with the increased number of named storms," Rodney Greenup, CEO of Greenup Industries. In early August, the NOAA's Climate Prediction Center increased the number of named storms they first predicted back in May. The original outlook had 13-20 named storms expected for the 2021 Atlantic hurricane season. The mid-season update states that the season is expected to have 15-21 named storms (winds of 39 mph or greater). Of the 15-21 named storms, they predict that 7-10 will be hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or greater), of which 3-5 could become major hurricanes (category 3, 4, or 5 with winds 111 mph or greater).

The West Shore Lake Pontchartrain Hurricane Protection project is a joint effort of CPRA and the New Orleans District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Pontchartrain Levee District, and St. Charles, St. John the Baptist, and St. James parishes. Construction of the project is being funded through a 65 percent federal 35 percent local cost share. 

Greenup Industries is also involved in the Lafourche Basin Levee District Project, known as Upper Barataria Risk Reduction, a $1.6 Billion levee project that Greenup has been working on for four years with the Levee Board. They also received $8M in design funding that Greenup was instrumental in securing.

Greenup Industries Successfully Installs 15 Thousand Smart Water Meters in St. John the Baptist Parish

St. John the Baptist Parish (St. John) is now in possession of some well-needed water meter upgrades thanks to the efforts of Greenup Industries Inc. (Greenup) with partner Aclara Technology. Greenup was awarded a $5.27 million contract from the Louisiana Parish in December 2019 to install 16,491 residential smart water meters, 382 commercial meters, and 10 fire hydrant meters. Greenup reports that installation on 15,000 residential and commercial smart water meters were completed despite numerous setbacks (COVID, 2020's most active Hurricane Season since 2005, Global Supply Chain Impacts, Hurricane Ida causing extensive damage to LaPlace and damaging some of the installed equipment). St. John Parish officials issued a resolution on March 28 to issue a Change Order on the existing contract and have the remaining 2,600 meters installed at a later date.

The new smart water meters feature more accurate leak detection and improved residential and commercial services. Residents can use a Customer Portal on their computer or mobile device for utility maintenance, such as setting up alerts for their water consumption, monitoring leak detection in real-time, and viewing live data to keep their water bill down. The water meters are networked into the St. John Parish data management system, allowing the parish to bill customers more accurately and monitor any potential infrastructure issues. “This new smart water meter system allows us to efficiently detect and minimize water loss for the residents and businesses in the parish,” said Rodney Greenup, CEO of Greenup. “It is more responsive infrastructure which enables us to pinpoint and respond to potential problems before they happen."

The St. John Parish Council agreed that the benefits of the “state-of-the-art” water meter outweigh its costs as it will provide for water usage readings to be taken every hour and transmitted to base stations that are built on the parish's water towers. Customers can access their water usage online in real-time, and the meters will send out alerts when their batteries get low. With the ability to monitor water usage daily via a computer or smartphone, the new system will eliminate estimated reads, provide customers with consistent billing, ensure smooth revenue collection, and reduce calls to customer service representatives. The new smart water meters also provide real-time leak detection alerts, allowing more accurate readings. Individuals will also be able to set up alerts for water consumption that exceeds a certain threshold. Part of the installation involves attaching a data collector to track water usage to the billing system. “We program the smart meter to transmit its location to the Parish's data collector. This lets us know how much water is being used immediately, every second of every day. This lets us know how much water is being used immediately, every second of every day. The previous meters had to be read manually," Greenup said. “The new meters allow the parish to respond to any leaks or potential infrastructure issues in real time."

Greenup faced adversity as it neared the completion of the St. John Smart Water Meter Project. In addition to the devastating effects of the supply chain crisis, ongoing disruptions from COVID, and hurricane damage slowing down installation efforts, Greenup said rolling layoffs in 2020 affected communication with Greenup Industries' subcontractors. The shipping delays from tech suppliers were a significant challenge the company had to overcome. "This project revealed our resiliency and can-do attitude, as our company faced setbacks time and time again. What we learned from this experience is that Greenup's team is experienced and willing to go beyond what is expected of them and to overcome obstacles to get our projects completed in a timely and efficient manner. I am so proud of them," Greenup said.

The construction phase broke the parish into six areas, or “water cycles.” Each cycle was completed before moving on to the next one. After the DCY network and installation routing plan were completed, training on the installation and smart meter software began in September 2020. The initial installations began in October, and by the beginning of 2021, Greenup had already completed several thousand installations. Recognized by Parish officials for their professionalism and communication throughout the project, Greenup expressed pride in being able to help solve a problem that affects so many people.

The St. John water meter project is one of several successes this year for the growing construction and maintenance firm. Greenup is nearing the end of its clay excavation efforts in the Bonnet Carre Spillway as part of the West Shore Lake Ponchartrain Project and have excavated 100,000 cubic yards of material for the LaReusitte to Myrtle Grove Levee and drainage canal, placing them ahead of schedule for the joint project with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Cajun Industries of Baton Rouge, LA.

Based in Kenner, Greenup Industries offers contracting and specialized construction services for industrial, commercial, and municipal clients. From refurbished roads and bridges to industrial construction and maintenance, the company is behind countless projects across the Gulf South that contribute to the region's growth and vibrancy. Since its start in 2012, Greenup has experienced unprecedented growth, becoming a leading construction contractor and provider of maintenance and third-party procurement services. President and CEO Rodney Greenup is a New Orleans native who began his career as a mechanical engineer and project manager with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. "There's a lot of growth potential and work to be done throughout the region," said Greenup. As we continue to grow and diversify, we owe our success to our relationships with our employees, clients, and vendors.

CELEBRATING WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION AT GREENUP INDUSTRIES

Here at Greenup Industries, diversity matters. The best way to approach a project is with varying perspectives from various individuals. As the construction industry has grown less inclusive following COVID-19, Greenup Industries has taken the initiative to recruit more diverse employees, particularly women.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, only 10.9% of the construction workforce are women. This number has grown substantially within the past few years, a change that has considerably diminished the stigma of women in construction jobs since 2016. Yet still, there is a long way to go in achieving gender parity in the construction industry. Greenup Industries is proud to be at the forefront of promoting and celebrating women in construction, breaking down barriers, and creating opportunities for talented individuals regardless of gender.

Initiatives at Greenup Industries

At Greenup Industries, we recognize the importance of providing a supportive and inclusive environment for our entire team. Here are some of the initiatives that we have implemented thus far to empower and celebrate our women in construction:

1. Recruitment and Mentorship Programs

We actively work to promote and encourage women to pursue careers in construction through targeted recruitment efforts and mentorship programs. By providing mentorship opportunities, we help women gain the confidence and skills necessary to advance their careers and excel in current and future roles.

2. Training and Professional Development

We invest in training and professional development programs accessible to all employees, not just women in construction. These programs allow everyone, including women, to enhance technical skills and foster leadership abilities to promote career advancement.

3. Networking and Community Engagement

Greenup Industries organizes networking events, conferences, and workshops that unite women in construction by providing a platform for knowledge sharing, networking, and inspiration. We also actively engage with professional organizations and community initiatives that support and empower women in the industry.

Success Stories

At Greenup Industries, we have witnessed numerous success stories of women making significant impacts in construction. From project managers and engineers to architects and valued tradespeople, we have seen women excel in diverse roles and directly showcase their expertise and leadership. One such success story is Naiika Bass. Bass was introduced to the construction industry in 2007 by her Mom, who worked as a certified pipefitter. After graduating from South University with an Associate of Science degree in Criminal Justice, she pursued her Occupational Safety & Health degree from Columbia Southern University and her NCCER certification in Construction Site Safety Technician (CSST), Construction Site Safety Supervisor (CSSS), Field Safety, OSHA 30, and First Aid/C.P.R. For the next six years. She worked in the oil and gas industry as a safety professional. It was her responsibility to ensure each location was in compliance with safety rules and regulations. "When I first began working as a safety professional, it was evident that there was a lack of trust between the field workers and management. I embraced the challenge to change this culture. After developing relationships with the field workers, they soon realized I was looking after their best interests and that my main goal was to make sure they got home safely to their families," she said. In 2017, Bass joined Greenup as its Health and Safety Manager.

Greenup's CEO, Rodney Greenup, believes Bass provides a great example of how women can successfully advance to leadership positions within the construction field. "Naiika has shown her ability and initiative to address the challenges in her work. Because of her attention to detail and her tenacity in regards to following up and following through, we have earned numerous safety awards. We welcome the opportunity to promote her and trust that her career will continue to grow with us," he said.

The Future of Women in Construction

The future looks promising for women in construction in many ways. As more companies, like Greenup Industries, prioritize DEI efforts, we expect to see increased opportunities and support for women in construction. This shift benefits individual careers and contributes to better innovation, decision-making, and general project success. We are building a stronger, more inclusive industry by celebrating and empowering women in construction. We are creating an environment that encourages women to thrive through recruitment mentorship programs, professional development, networking, and community engagement. Let's continue to break barriers, challenge stereotypes, and shape a future where gender equality is the norm in construction.
