# Texas Sterling: Delivering Txdot Projects OnTime With The Right People

August 2, 2025

[Success Stories](https://amundsongroup.com/success-stories/)

**How AG helped a $2.1B civil contractor staff for compliance and scale across Texas.**

### The Setup

Texas Sterling Construction is one of the **largest heavy civil contractors in the region**, with more than $2.1B in annual revenue.
Their portfolio spans **highways, bridges, and critical infrastructure** across the state.

In 2023, they secured multiple **large-scale TxDOT projects**. Each required speed, precision, and professionals with proven, local track records.

### The Problem

Texas Sterling’s existing recruitment partners, mostly generalist agencies and global firms, **couldn’t deliver what was needed**.

Too many candidates lacked the right project pedigree. Too few had real experience with TxDOT specs or leading $50M-plus civil infrastructure builds in Texas.

**They needed a hiring partner that knew the ground, understood the pressure, and could move fast.**

### The Work

Amundson Group was brought in to lead recruitment across multiple job families. We worked shoulder to shoulder with executives, HR, and field leadership.

- Ran targeted searches focused on TxDOT-experienced professionals
- Screened for high-value project delivery, team leadership, and compliance mindset
- Delivered fast: **resumes in 2.5 days, interviews in 5, hires in 7**

**This was precision hiring for jobs that had no room for error.**

### The Results

**Over the course of our partnership, AG delivered:**

##### 18 Critical hire across Texas Including:

- 5 Project Engineers
- 2 General Superintendents
- 3 Pipe Foremen
- 3 Project Managers
- 1 Survey Crew
- 2 Grade Foremen
- 2 HSE

> **Full staffing for TxDOT project delivery teams**

### WHY IT WORKED

- Because we don’t just know construction. We know Texas.
- Because we vet for more than skill. We look for leadership under pressure.
- Because we aligned with internal teams and **executed like one of their own**.

### Still Building

**AG continues to support Texas Sterling’s hiring needs** statewide, helping them win and deliver major infrastructure projects that shape the future of Texas.
