PEG is a national, full-service commercial asphalt paving & concrete sales and service company with two business segments

Contracting – general contracting for paving & concrete jobs throughout the US and also in the Charlotte region

• PEG does not own equipment or perform paving work directly; instead, PEG acts as a full service project manager

Outsourced Business Services – PEG partners with clients to perform the outsourced paving & concrete function

• Handles bidding, administration, contractor selection, etc.
• Business is mostly from large companies with a nationwide presence and multiple owned locations
• Outsourcing reduces clients’ internal headcount and increases efficiency – PEG has extensive knowledge of local contractors, and has considerable project management experience and IT capabilities
• Value added – while a client may have a few repaving jobs in a particular locale over time, PEG manages numerous jobs in many locales
• For example, a restaurant company may have 4-8 jobs each year in a city; PEG may have 10 – 50 jobs in that city, thus local contractors view PEG as highly important to their business

The Company has differentiated itself by employing a vendor neutral strategy to maintain a high reputation with clients
