CEO

PERSONAL BIO

​

David Harris founded Harris Construction 30 years ago based on the core values of teamwork, integrity and commitment. He has worked in the commercial construction industry since 1985. He has extensive experience in commercial interior fit-up projects, building renovations, and ground-up construction projects. David holds a BS degree in Business Administration from the Belhaven College and Construction Technology from Memphis University.

  

David grew up in Jackson, MS therefore he has a deep appreciation for the clients he works with and the land upon which they build. His personable demeanor establishes a confident, professional relationship with clients and a neighborly standard of communication. While most of his projects are mainly in the Jackson area, he has proudly served customers throughout the southeast.

 

David's work in the building industry did not begin as a general contractor. He started early working within general contracting with his family's business. This hands-on experience allowed David to work side-by-side with subcontractors learning the contractor aspects of their trades.  As a result of this hands on experience David can quickly identify quality processes and remove those that are less than desirable. His expectations are high on every aspect of the project, and with his extensive knowledge and background experience, those who work for him respect his knowledge and meet his standards.

 â€‹

Through his commitment to excellence and a dedication to professionalism, David continues to exceed industry standards by forming strong professional partnerships based on integrity, ingenuity and reliability. These characteristics, along with a deep-rooted tie to Mississippi have enabled David and his company to become one of the most recognized names in construction.

COMPANY BIO

​

David’s insistence on quality of service, hard work, and responsiveness to client needs remains the company ideology and has led to its success in a competitive industry. The company’s ability to address changing conditions and demands, find and serve diverse markets, and expand its services has resulted in the company brand – "dependability".

 

But the world is changing, and so is Harris Construction. Even though business as usual has meant adhering to the highest of standards, it is no longer enough. There are a multitude of obstacles, including increased competition, and more complex and demanding technology, and works diligently to meet these challenges. His commitment to using sustainable systems and practices while implementing new and better approaches to deliver client projects keeps him ahead and

on time.

 

It is striking how much Harris Construction has changed over the years, and how much it has stayed the same. A promise made is a promise delivered, rings as true today as it did in 1989. By updating and refining processes, Harris Construction has adapted to the needs of an ever-changing environment we call construction.
