Ideal Contracting, a Detroit-based general contractor offering steel erection capabilities, has added Kevin Hilton, a well-known veteran of the construction industry, to the position of business development manager.
He’s served as the senior vice president at The Association of Union Constructors (TAUC) and the National Maintenance Agreements Policy Committee (NMAPC), where he collaborated with major industry stakeholders. In addition to his 12 years at TAUC and NMAPC, Kevin served as the CEO of the Ironworker Management Progressive Action Cooperative Trust
