Our largest clients never attended a project meeting. They weighed 8,000 pounds.
Thirty-five retired performing Asian elephants needed more than a place to live. They needed a habitat that would let them be elephants again.
At White Oak Conservation in Yulee, Florida, Haskell helped transform 2,500 acres into one of the most ambitious elephant habitats ever built. Forests. Wetlands. Grasslands. Interconnected waterholes. Specialized veterinary facilities. More than 10 miles of fencing.
And it had to be built without disrupting the environment it was meant to protect. Our teams innovated to further sustainability, reduce equipment movement and shave installation time by 30%, saving approximately $20 per linear foot.
Family Day at Haskell Steel brought team members and their families together for a look inside the shop and the work that happens there every day.
The event featured guided tours, equipment displays, activities for kids and plenty of time to connect outside the workday. It gave families a chance to see the processes and craftsmanship behind the steel fabrication that supports projects across Haskell.
“I have been in this industry for most of my kids’ lives, and this was the first time I have ever had the opportunity to show them what I do,” said Steel Fitter 1 Braxton King. “It made me proud. I`m grateful for that.”
Special thanks to Danielle Martin for coordinating the event and managing the countless details that made the day possible. Thank you also to David Hargraves for keeping the grill hot and to the many volunteers who helped support activities throughout the day.

What if you could test manufacturing decisions before making costly investments?
Simulation and digital twins help manufacturers move from guesswork to data-driven decisions. By creating a virtual representation of a process, line or facility, teams can evaluate the system from start to finish and forecast performance before implementing changes in the real world.
The result? Reduced risk, smarter capital investments, faster commissioning and improved operational efficiency.
From right-sizing equipment and buffers to unlocking hidden capacity, simulation enables organizations to answer critical questions with confidence and turn data into action.
Visit our website to learn how Haskell`s Systems Analytics team use Simulation and Digital Twins to help manufacturers improve performance across the entire project lifecycle.
Before the first bottle could move down the line, Haskell’s project team had to solve what was happening below the slab.
In Zacoalco de Torres, Jalisco, Haskell delivered a 468,230-square-foot bottled water production and distribution facility for Niagara Bottling, creating a strategically located hub that brings production, packaging and distribution operations together under one roof.
The project site presented significant geotechnical challenges, including soft soils and projected settlements exceeding 40 centimeters without ground improvement. Simultaneously, the team coordinated complex utility systems, integrated high-speed production infrastructure and maintained an aggressive 12-month construction schedule.
Designed for immediate operational readiness and future expansion, the facility supports multiple high-speed bottling lines and serves as a key anchor for Niagara Bottling’s Mexico distribution network.

This week, Haskell welcomed its ninth annual high school internship cohort to the Jacksonville headquarters.
Over the next six weeks, 14 high school interns representing schools across Northeast Florida will gain hands-on experience in the AEC industry through mentorship, industry learning sessions, active jobsite visits and career-focused activities. Interns will also participate in this year’s Haskell Renewed Day of Service Project, a community-focused initiative that gives students the chance to apply what they’ve learned while making a positive local impact.
The internship provides an opportunity for students to explore careers in the industry and gain a better understanding of the paths available to them in the future. Our teams introduce the next generation to architecture, engineering and construction management and can’t wait to see what this group accomplishes.
Welcome to Haskell!
Five Haskell team members recently returned from the Groundbreaking Women in Construction Conference in San Diego, a premier leadership conference hosted by Engineering News-Record dedicated to advancing women across all roles in the construction industry.
Two full days of programming included sessions on topics such as optimizing career trajectories, quality management in design-build infrastructure projects and building inclusive teams in difficult environments.
Haskell Director or Talent Acquisition Meredith Adragna was one of five panelists during a session titled “Unlocking Innovation: The Business Case for Neurodiversity,” which drew their real-world insights to recognize conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia and dyspraxia as a spectrum, and highlight how neurodiverse individuals contribute to increased creativity, innovation and productivity.
Assistant Project Manager McKenna Connell said the GWIC environment created “a real sense of relatability.”
“Speakers from a variety of roles in construction shared very raw and real stories that not only humanized the work we do but also emphasized the impact that having a diverse and representative workforce can make,” she said. “These events are not meant to show face or throw around supposedly inspiring buzzwords; they are a real opportunity to uplift each other and the industry as a whole.
“A recurring theme of the event is that while being a woman in construction today may be seen as a novelty, it will someday become the norm - and all of us are helping that become reality!”
For decades, the concrete used in coastal infrastructure has protected coastlines while offering little support for the ecosystems around them. ECOncrete is changing that.
Backed by science, @econcrete_ technology modifies the chemistry, texture and structure of concrete so ports, seawalls and other shoreline assets can support marine life while meeting engineering standards.
Through @dysruptek, Haskell has invested in ECOncrete since 2024, supporting a solution that aligns with the future of resilient, sustainable infrastructure. The company’s recent $14 million funding round will help expand its technology across global waterfront markets, where project owners are looking for stronger coastal protection, measurable ecological uplift and smarter paths through permitting.

It takes more than standards and enforcement to support a culture of safety on a project site with more than 300 workers, but Haskell Safety Coordinator Tie Zamble did just that in Madagascar.
For the site`s first full Safety Week, Zamble mixed workers from nine companies into teams that crossed every trade and employer. Painters competed as one, and cleaning staff lined up alongside craft professionals. A week of hands-on training and competition, plus fire-extinguisher training from local Antananarivo firefighters, reinforced one idea: Safety is for everyone.
The site has logged no lost-time, no injuries and roughly 425,000 work hours.
