As an integrated development, construction and real estate leasing and management enterprise, we bring an owner’s perspective to our work, collaborating closely with clients, architects, and other stakeholders to envision and plan for success long before ground is broken.
Building Community - We uphold a joyful tradition of “building buildings and building people.” Kraus-Anderson’s deep commitment to the communities in which we live and serve include longtime membership in the Minnesota Keystone Program, giving in excess of 5 percent of KA’s pretax earnings per year to address community needs; our annual Fall Giving Campaign; KA Bike Duluth Festival; and a variety of KA Has Heart teambuilding activities.
Safety Start to Finish - Kraus-Anderson’s safety performance is consistently ranked within the top 20 percent of construction firms nationally. Safety is embedded in everything we do, a reflection of our core value of valuing people.
Building Thought Leadership through KA University - Knowledge is power. Kraus-Anderson is committed to the continuous training and professional development. Kraus-Anderson University (KAU) provides our employees, as well as clients, architects and others, with an array of educational opportunities in both technical and leadership domains.
Committed to Inclusion and Diversity - We believe diversity strengthens our organization and allows us to serve clients at the highest possible level. We strive to make Kraus-Anderson a place where every person – employee, client, partner, subcontractor, vendor – is valued for the unique skills, abilities and perspectives that they possess. Our employees are responsible for supporting the concept of equality and cooperating in our company meeting these objects.
