credentials that set us apart

Paragon is AMPP QP1 and QP2 certified—one of only ~300 firms in the nation and the only contractor in Louisiana to hold both. These certifications prove our ability to meet the industry’s highest standards for quality, safety, and environmental compliance.

Paragon delivered our bridge rehabilitation ahead of schedule and with zero issues during inspection. Their team communicated clearly at every step and handled a highly complex scope without a single safety incident. We couldn’t ask for a more reliable partner. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality, Management & Safety.

Contracting Officer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

I have managed 3 projects that were very similar scope with three different contractors. Of the three, Paragon scores the first as a choice to work with again. Their work was stellar and reduced the QC inspection burden, as well as the COR paperwork burden normally experienced on a project. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality and Management.

Contracting Officer Representative, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

Paragon assigned a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) who performed exceptionally well. It is clear and apparent in the contractor’s performance that they selected and provided strong and capable leadership, established a culture of safety, effectively managed quality of materials and workmanship and aggressively managed the project to completion. Overall Rating: Exceptional for Quality, Management & Safety

Project Engineer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

I was extremely pleased when Paragon completed our steel rehabilitation and protective coating project 6 months ahead of schedule. Their project execution plan and communication plan produced a robust schedule supported by tight controls over safety, quality, and management, allowing them to mitigate risks proactively and coordinate seamlessly with our team.
