Associated Builders and Contractors Awards
Watson Electrical is proud to announce that we have been recognized as a 2025 Accredited Quality Contractor (AQC) by Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC)! This distinction recognizes our continued commitment to excellence, safety, and integrity across all aspects of our business.
Established more than three decades ago, ABC’s AQC credential honors industry-leading construction firms that demonstrate a proven commitment to five key areas of corporate responsibility:
- Quality
- Health and safety performance
- Talent management
- Craft and management education
- Community relations
Each AQC company must meet a stringent set of criteria, including maintaining top-tier safety performance through ABC’s STEP® Health and Safety Management System. Established in 1989, STEP provides contractors with a no-cost framework for benchmarking safety performance, with top performers achieving incident rates nearly seven times safer than the industry average.
“This industry-leading contractor has proven they not only provide immense value in the marketplace, but they also prioritize their employees’ health and safety, company culture, and quality work processes and products,” said Michael Bellaman, ABC president and CEO. “Congratulations to this Accredited Quality Contractor; you are a trusted, respected and transformational leader in the construction industry.”
As an AQC member, Watson Electrical proudly reaffirms our commitment to the AQC pledge:
We are dedicated to providing our clients with the highest-quality construction services, caring deeply about our employees and the communities where we live and work. We are proud to serve the industry with integrity, promote safety and education, and uphold the principles of free enterprise.
This recognition is a testament to the dedication, skill, and hard work of our entire team. Together, we continue to set the standard for excellence in electrical construction.
