Please join us in celebrating Doug Thompson‘s thirty years of service at Hyder Construction! Doug started at Hyder 30 years ago as a Project Manager at the Federal Reserve building downtown. Quickly proving his capabilities, he was assigned a number of challenging projects in the mountains including the Bridge Street Lodge Condominiums, a complex renovation at the Eagle County Courthouse. Since his early days at Hyder, he has been involved in many of our iconic projects including The Navarre Building, The Vail Marriott, Parker Town Hall, Founder’s Park, Vail’s Front Door, Vail Four Seasons, Breckenridge Brewery, Lone Rock Retreat, Breckenridge Parking Structure and Aerie Lodge to name just a few. It’s no coincidence that these projects have earned three AGC ACE awards, multiple 2nd place AGC awards and a national ENR award!

Doug’s knowledge of the industry, ability to build difficult construction projects, and focus on building an exceptional product sets the bar high in our business. He has been a mentor to countless PE’s, PM’s, and Superintendents, and as a result, his teams have given him the nickname “The Professor.” Doug does not have to have a personal marketing plan because owners and architects who have worked with Doug reach out to him time and time again with new projects. Doug played a big part over his career in helping develop the best practices included in Hyder’s Core Values and in the Hyder Way because of his love of building and commitment to be successful on every project he undertakes, and he has been an integral part of Hyder’s success.

Cheers and Congratulations Doug!!
