National contractor hires local industry icon and opens new office in San Francisco to lead and expand the company’s presence in the West
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, November 2, 2012 – Suffolk Construction, one of the most successful, privately held building contractors in the country, announced today it has hired construction industry icon Andrew Ball as its new president of the West region. Suffolk will also open a new office in San Francisco which will allow the organization to strengthen its foothold and expand opportunities for future growth in the West.
“We are absolutely thrilled that Andy has joined our organization to lead our operations in the West region,” said John Fish, Chairman and CEO of Suffolk Construction. “Andy clearly has the experience, unique skill set, and local relationships that will strengthen Suffolk’s existing presence in that area of the country. We are confident that Andy’s impeccable leadership will help us expand our reach from the Irvine and San Diego areas and successfully deliver our ‘build smart’ promise to clients in the San Francisco and Northern California markets, and beyond.”
“I always said that if I was to return to the construction industry, the company would have to be the right cultural fit, and the perfect situation. I have found that company and situation,” said Andy Ball, new president of Suffolk’s West region. “I have always been extremely passionate about building buildings, particularly in the San Francisco area. Suffolk shares that passion and offers the most visionary leadership team, dedicated employees, and effective systems and procedures in the industry. Leading an entire Suffolk operation in the city that I love is a dream come true, and I’m very excited to get started.”
Andy Ball is the former CEO of San Mateo-based Webcor Builders. Under his leadership, Webcor grew to become one of the Bay Area’s largest and most respected building contractors with more than $1.4 billion of revenue during the peak of construction in 2007. Webcor was also recognized as one of the “greenest” contractors in the country. Ball eventually sold the company in 2007 to Japan’s Obayashi Corporation.

For the second year, our Suffolk West Coast team volunteered their time and talent to participate in CANstruction, an event that is devoted to fighting hunger in the Orange County area. This year, 14 teams from architecture, engineering and construction firms and design schools competed to construct 10 x 10 x 8 sculptures made entirely out of whole canes of food, and exhibited for one month at the world renowned South Coast Place in Costa Mesa, CA. Suffolk’s entry this year was a replica of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Stadium appropriately named “Strike Out Hunger”. Suffolk’s team used Building Information Modeling (BIM) to virtually design the miniature stadium, and incorporate the words “Strike Out Hunger” with the labels of the cans alongside the stadium. As a result, the team contributed 6,000 of the 60,000 cants to the Orange County Food Bank at the close of the exhibition.
