What Everus Construction does

Electrical and mechanical construction and specialty contracting company spun off from MDU Resources in 2024.

Wins electrical and mechanical contracting jobs, many at fixed prices, so profit depends on estimating labour and materials correctly; revenue builds over the life of a project and is backed by a contracted backlog. A second unit does power-line and pipeline work for utilities. MDU Resources spun it off in 2024 so the parent could focus on utilities.

In one line: A newly independent electrical/mechanical contractor, similar to IES Holdings.
