MC Industrial, Inc., an independent McCarthy company, was established in 2005 to serve the specialized construction needs of the industrial market nationwide. We’ve built our reputation on decades of proven McCarthy experience in the automotive, food and beverage, aviation/aerospace, manufacturing and power markets. And, if your project includes new “shade and shelter” and you need it fast, MC Industrial is an authorized distributor/builder of a variety of pre-engineered metal buildings.
Synergy
We haven’t forgotten where we came from. Our procedures and resources are genuine McCarthy. Our industrial focus, however, assures our clients the right services, thoughtfully planned and executed, at the right time and price.
Even though we’re MC Industrial, our core values are those that have energized McCarthy for more than a century. Old-fashioned principles such as taking responsibility for your actions, integrity, respect for the individual, and the importance of relationships drive our business. And given the fact that every MC Industrial salaried employee is also an employee owner (of the McCarthy parent company), you can count on each of us to deliver above and beyond your expectations.

Often, the best Safety advocates are the converts…workers who learned in one way or another they weren’t invincible.
When a project achieves more than 1 million man hours and can boast ZERO lost time incidents, we know our program is working. We also know our tradespeople have learned by example…and those “examples” become the greatest Safety preachers.
Meet a true Safety convert…a worker at our oil company project. He didn’t wear fall protection and was given three days off. When he returned to the job, the first thing he did was put on his harness. Now, when he sees workers attempt to get off the ground more than six-feet without protection, he gives them a very valuable piece of his experience.
What’s the moral of the story? MC Industrial projects are safe because the men and women who work for us know we care about their welfare. We owe it to our people and their families to send everyone home at the end of the day the same way they came in to work…whole and healthy.
success
What is your definition of a successful project?
Is it one that gets your assembly line up and running faster? Or, is it a smoothly run outage project that results in better service to your customers? Maybe it’s the project that’s completed without interrupting your on-going operations. Or, is it all of these?
Whatever your definition, success is far more complex than the proverbial “on-time, on-budget” answer most often heard in our industry.
Whether your project is large or small, tough and complex, or just a simple fix, MC Industrial delivers success on your terms.

When you’re trusted with the single largest body shop equipment installation project ever given to one contractor by this automotive manufacturer, every move you make must be efficient and perfectly executed…especially when you only have 9 weeks to install 300 robots, conveyor equipment, control panels, and welding and stamping equipment so trucks can begin to roll off the line and be shipped to dealerships around the country.
This labor-intensive project required close coordination with all subs. In fact, MC Industrial produced an hour-by-hour schedule, and conducted two scheduling meetings a day to ensure the just-in-time transfer of more than 450 containers of equipment from the seaport to the job site for installation.
Success depended on expert logistics, material handling and managing last minute changes. Equipment deliveries were sequenced so installation could take place directly from the truck to the required area in the body shop. MC Industrial crews unloaded and installed more than 50 containers of equipment each week. All 54 bays were installed and powered on in just under 9 weeks.
How do you measure success? One happy client at a time.
There’s not much in industrial construction that intimidates us.
We’ve faced the tough customer who wants to compress a 14-month power plant project down to 8 months… and left him pleased with our performance.
We’ve expertly phased automotive manufacturing projects to fit into the industry’s notoriously tight shut down schedules and watched as the cars rolled off the production line ahead of the client’s schedule.
We’ve installed new packaging lines and ensured they were up and running so the client’s production schedules… and revenues…didn’t suffer.

If you’re planning on 14 months to complete installation of two 450,000-pound turbines along with their 350,000-pound generators on an existing fossil-fuel power plant, shaving time off the schedule unexpectedly can knock a project team off balance pretty quickly. But, in this case, we’re not talking about just any project team.
The project start was delayed three months. Then, the Owner moved up the completion date another three months. The result? What was once a 14 month project, was now whittled down to eight.
Tight schedules are pretty much the norm in the industrial world and MC Industrial is used to constructing during two week shutdowns and outages. So, our team came up with a plan to meet the new schedule.
Self performance was our ace-in-the-hole. We took on the pile driving, concrete, millwright work, ironworker and boilermaker work to help control the schedule.
Teams worked two 10-hour shifts a day, 6-days a week through November. With an eye on the budget, we scheduled overtime judiciously. At peak, 200 tradesmen converged on the site to get the job done.
Finally, right on schedule and just in time for the blazing Midwest heat, the team fired up the first turbine on the scheduled day. Thirteen days later, the switch was flipped on the second unit. Both units started up with no construction-related problems.
In the end, we pleased the client. And we earned the distinction of pulling off a job some thought impossible!P

It was barely daylight and already more than 20 concrete trucks were lined up at the cement plant site ready to pour. Tradesmen and women were ready too. Standing on the decks of the first two silos to be built, their 12-hour shift was about to begin.
Slip-forming requires perpetual motion. Concrete is poured around the clock while workers set and tie rebar. It is the only way to build a monolithic structure so there are no cold joints…a weak spot where either product can leak out or water can seep in.
Planning for a project that can’t stop is intense. Detailed plans are checked and double checked before work begins. Weeks of planning and thought
goes into assembling the slip deck. Staff has to know that every needed component is at the ready…man power access, on-deck lay down requirements, crane needs. Back-up plans are in place if problems arise. Everything has to be right. Mistakes will ultimately affect the outcome.
MC Industrial’s ability to plan and execute to this level of detail transfers into many of our industrial projects…shut-downs at power plants and car plants, or any manufacturing facility where there’s a narrow window in which to complete a project.
Whatever the project, MC Industrial expertly plans the work then works the plan so your outcome is exactly what you envisioned.
PlanningIndustrial construction requires intense planning.
Labor, materials, equipment, contingency plans for unexpected problems, must all be taken into account before work can begin.
MC Industrial’s ability to plan and execute at this level of detail is an essential skill for any project we undertake, whether constructing in the power industry, setting equipment in car plants, or in manufacturing facilities where mistakes can mean lost time and revenue for the owner.

PartnershipWhat criteria do you use when forming partnerships? Trust? Know-How? Dependability? Tenacity?
Partnerships form the basis of our business. They are integral to our success and to our reputation with clients. Partners have common goals. They understand what the outcome needs to look like. They communicate constantly so there are no surprises. They look out for one another.
From start to finish, your project is our priority. As your partner, the value we deliver in preconstruction services and value analysis increases the quality of the end result and saves you money.
We take a scientific approach to preconstruction. The benefit for you is detailed, accurate and complete data up front so you can make informed decisions throughout the project, resulting in greater cost control and schedule adherence.
Our goal is to maximize the effect of every project dollar you spend.
Creating win/win situations is the stuff of good partnerships. Such is the case between MC Industrial and a long time client in the aerospace industry.
When this high-profile company needed to build a 36-acre flight ramp facility on its campus, they turned to a company they could trust…one that would look out for their best interests.
Good partnerships bring out the best in both parties. This one was no different. Although MC Industrial was not responsible for the project’s design, we always reviewed and offered a multitude of potential cost-saving ideas. A log was kept of all ideas presented and the status of each. One idea saved the client nearly $900,000.
Aside from closely watching the project budget, MC Industrial developed state-of-the-art commissioning programs that ensured smooth, expedited turnover of all facilities. The program included extensive training for personnel who would be maintaining the building once it was occupied.
The reward for maintaining a true partnership is trust…and trust begets more opportunity… for the client and for MC Industrial.

How do you build two, 60-foot in diameter, 275-foot-tall, monolithic concrete structures in just 17 days? You use your own labor force.
Just outside a small Midwest town, a behemoth is being built…the world’s largest, single-line cement plant. Thirteen silos of varying dimensions are needed to accommodate raw and finished materials storage. MC Industrial started the first two blend silos in the dead of winter.
The technique used to build these silos is called slip forming. Essentially, what slip forming means to the tradesmen is 24-7, non-stop work to place and finish the continuous flow of concrete. The blend silos took 170 MC Industrial tradespeople (85 on each 12-hour shift), 2,125 manhours each day to pour and finish 6,015-yards of concrete to complete. But, these two silos were just a prelude to bigger things.
Next on the list…two 150-foot in diameter, 207-foot tall clinker silos said to be the largest in the world. By the time the first clinker was finished, the 220 tradesmen logged 34,600 manhours and used 2,500 tons of rebar.
Over 18 months, MC Industrial placed more than 90,000-cubic-yards of concrete to complete all 13 silos. At peak, the project employed 700 tradespeople who worked round the clock on 12-hour shifts.
The silo project, at the time, ended up being the largest self perform contract ever executed by MC Industrial with more than 700,000 manhours. Pulling it off successfully required intense detailed planning. Every component was on hand and there was a good backup plan in place if problems arose.
Managing and directing large amounts of manpower allows us to control rather than just document the job as some large CM-only firms may do.

commitmentOur commitment to you is to deliver a quality project that will exceed your expectations on all levels.
What is commitment? MC Industrials believes it’s doing “whatever it takes” to get the job done well. Sometimes our commitment is revealed to an Owner long before a project is awarded and crews begin to mobilize on the job site. It begins in the proving grounds…early in the relationship.
It had been 10 years since MC Industrial last worked on a project for the aerospace manufacturer and we wanted to work with them again. Giving up wasn’t part of the deal. To prove just how serious our desire to work for this client was, we submitted bids on 26 projects ranging in size from $50,000 to $2 million in the span of three years.
Finally, the opportunity arrived. The client would test our mettle. We won $8.8 million worth of work on 8 hard bid projects. It was our time to shine. And shine, we did.
At the end of those 8 projects, a major project laid waiting. We had already paved the way. The client knew what to expect.
We approached the next job with the same problem-solving mind set and dedication as all the others. And, despite scheduling complexities and logistical challenges, we wowed the client with results far beyond their expectations.
