Empowered to Exceeed Expectations

Jacob Schaefer

The day after the snowstorm, I come into work to see Jacob clearing our walkways and salting them. He wasn’t asked, he just did it to keep our Ewing office team safe. Thanks, Jacob!

Kenny Graves & Corey Yannone

Two Keeley Power team members were driving to a substation project and noticed an elderly woman trying to shovel her driveway. Kenny Graves and Corey Yannone stopped to complete the task. Thank you, gentlemen, for living the culture of our Brand! Riding for the Brand!

Bronson Holland, Eric Chojnowski, & Josh Givens

 After the first snow storm we had last weekend, one of our #KeeleyCares partners reached out for help. At a time when it was probably needed the most, The Crisis Nursery wasn’t able to get employees or families they are serving into their facility safely. They tried to remove snow in their parking lot on their own but ultimately it was more than they could manage. That’s where Bronson Holland and Eric Chojnowski came to save the day and cleared the lot for the Nursery, allowing them to continue their mission and offer all of their services. When the snow returned on Friday, Bronson returned with Josh Givens to do it all over again. Thank you, Bronson, Eric, and Josh for living our values and being amazing humans!

Mat Cardani

Congratulations, Mat Cardani, on earning your Certified Safety Professional (CSP) designation! This is a significant achievement and a testament to your dedication, expertise, and commitment to safety. Well done!

Phillip Hudgens

I’d like to have Phillip recognized for being an outstanding co-worker. Not too often in today’s society do co-workers genuinely care about each other, Phil is one of them. He has reminded me there is always time to slow down and care on a personal level. It’s been refreshing to interact with a man like Phil . He’s also come to AZ and hit the ground running with doing whatever has been needed along with fitting right into our small team here. 

Marc Norman

I like to recognize Mr. Marc Norman, a good colleague that understands that WE, is more powerful than ME. His sense of humor and knowledge been making my work journey smoother, plus he has a motorcycle which makes him even cooler 😊. Thank you, Marc, and keep up the good work.

Kristen Clark

 I would like to nominate Kristen Clark for an E3 award in recognition of her outstanding work on the presentations and timing of Summit 2025. Having attended three of these events, I can confidently say that this year's Summit was exceptionally well-organized, stayed on schedule, and experienced minimal IT issues. While much of her effort often goes unnoticed by others, I am keenly aware of the immense time and dedication Kristen has put into ensuring the day's success. Her meticulous planning and hard work made a significant impact, and I want to acknowledge and celebrate her contributions. Thank you, Kristen, for your unwavering commitment and exceptional effort—it is deeply appreciated!

Matthew Hunt

I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge Matthew Hunt for his exceptional dedication and efforts in preparing for Wave 1 of the Walmart Bid Event. Over the past week, Matt has been integral in performing takeoffs, assembling bid forms, verifying quantities, and addressing numerous questions. His meticulous attention to detail will continue to strengthen our trusted relationship with Walmart. Matt has made considerable sacrifices, including late nights and weekends, and we are only at the start of the event. Thank you, Matt, for your outstanding impact and ongoing support to our entire paving team. Your contributions are vital to helping us achieve our goals, and we truly appreciate your hard work. Keep up the great work!

Erick Spencer, Travis Richerson, Jose Jimenez , Victor Ochoa, Melecio Carrera

They amazing efficiency and work ethic speak by itself, they successfully completed a Shut Down maintenance work at LNG Manassas this week, they traveled from UGI Manning PA job site to LNG Manassas VA, there were able to get it done on schedule, working the necessary hours during the day to complete their task efficiently. Massive thanks to them showing an incredible Teamwork. 

Josh Givens

Josh Givens stepped in at the end of an important project for an important strategic client (Together), working on their third project with Keeley and the first of their new prototypes. The great job he did on that alone is worth an E3. But testament to doing a great job, a couple years later Together Credit Union is gearing up for their next branch using that same prototype design. Josh was specifically requested because they truly appreciated his attention to detail and honesty in communications!

Nate LePage

I wanted to take the time to applaud Nate LePage for his efforts in growing our Denver, Colorado presence. Always well representing the Keeley brand, Nate is quickly building relationships through trust, his knowledge of the business, and truly taking the time to understand our customers. Nate performed a site visit for Safeway earlier this week for a small asphalt repair with a NTE of $1500. Meeting with both store managers, Nate explained how the type of repair they were requesting would be temporary and recommended a solution to properly repair the area. Understanding the benefits, the store managers called in their Regional Construction Manager to review with Nate. They discussed specifications, schedule, and budget, with the end result being a contract for $52,000. In addition, they have now forwarded 7 additional projects for Nate to scope. Nate emphasizes the importance of servicing our customers no matter how big or small the project. Nate states “It’s all about building the relationships, and the opportunities will follow.” 

Woodward BESS Team

Client Email- I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional work your team delivered on the Woodward Bess structural scope of work. Despite challenging working conditions, they demonstrated remarkable dedication, safety, and efficiency throughout the project. The quality of the finished product is outstanding and a testament to their craftsmanship and professionalism. Additionally, I truly appreciate how thoroughly your team cleaned the work area upon completion, leaving everything in -better than they got it - condition. It has been a pleasure working with such a professional and dependable group. Please extend my thanks and commendation to everyone involved.

Zach Rushing & Zach Limoges

Zack and Zach continue to make significant strides in building relationships and closing deals across Oklahoma! The Z Squared team has been delivering customer-centric solutions while nurturing valuable connections with the Walmart Insource team members in Oklahoma and surrounding regions. Just last week, they played a key role in generating over $100K in revenue, and we’re already seeing an increase in work orders from various managers. Your GRIT and tenacity are truly paying off, and the results speak for themselves. Thank you for your hard work and dedication!

Matt Nashadka & Josh Ridler

We recently had an issue with a site leader under performing at his position at our Morristown Bunge site. This was quickly recognized by the team and while it wasn’t impacting field performance or client relations, it definitely would have in the near future. I am excited to submit an E^3 to Matt & Josh for quickly running to the problem (Matt left at 2 in the morning on last Friday and Josh after just landing in St Louis, left at 3 in the morning Friday) and resolving within an hour of being onsite. They involved the necessary people within Keeley, handled the under performing site lead, mobilized a replacement within 24 hours, and brought Bunge up to speed of the issue and the quick changes. Thank you Josh & Matt for sprinting to a problem and fixing it just as quickly!!

Robert Hudson

We recently wrapped up a high profile project for our Partners at Transwestern Real Estate in Phoenix. There was some day 2 items that the client had asked us to complete for a large open house in their building and Robert had to call in multiple favors to get It completed and finalized before this morning. Our client reached out and indicated that everything looked great and that they had a successful open house so kudos to Robert on going above and beyond to get everything sorted and sitting out there after hours to ensure the work was completed.  Thanks for making our team look good Robert. 

Zack Rushing and his crew

I wanted to take a moment to highlight the exceptional efforts of Zack Rushing and his crew. We were short-handed recently, and Zack and his team truly went above and beyond by traveling to Dallas to ensure that the maintenance work was completed efficiently and on time for Lowes. They demonstrated excellent teamwork, and consistently exhibited Keeley’s core values of integrity, people, and discipline. Their hard work and commitment not only contributed to the success of the project but also set an outstanding example for the team. Please join me in recognizing their outstanding performance and dedication. Zack and his crew’s contributions have not gone unnoticed and are deeply appreciated.
