From vision to reality! We are proud to unveil the Veteran Honor Wall with United Airlines. The purpose of this project is to honor current and retired United Airlines employees who have served our country. This project's creation relied upon donated time and materials supported by JWI and various other firms. Collaboration was key, aligning with United Airlines' “Gate of the Future” initiative and partnering closely with United 4 Veterans. After overcoming various challenges, we celebrated the unveiling together with almost 100 attendees. The Veteran Honor Wall now stands as a powerful symbol of gratitude and respect, honoring our veterans’ services and sacrifices, and we are so proud to have been a part of it! #Chicago #Denver #Orlando #construction #aviation #transportation #constructionmanagement #projectmanagement

Happy Pride Month! Pride is an incredible opportunity for the LGBTQIA+ community to celebrate their authentic selves, and we are honored to join in this celebration this June. Over the past year, members of the JWI team founded Q&A (Queers & Allies), an initiative dedicated to fostering an even safer and more welcoming environment. JWI proudly supports this growing organization and is committed to providing the necessary resources for its success. To kick off Pride Month, Q&A is hosting a Chicagoland drag bingo event, with all donations going to “Life is Work,” a trans-led organization dedicated to educating, organizing, and empowering LGBTQIA+ individuals from diverse backgrounds to secure safety, wellness, and justice for all. Learn more about this amazing cause at lifeiswork.org or through the link in our bio. We look forward to creating more opportunities to support the LGBTQIA+ community. #Chicago #Denver #Orlando #construction #aviation #transportation #constructionmanagement #projectmanagement

It’s the best time of the month! Our monthly project spotlight highlights our recently completed project with the Pullman Moscow Regional Airport (PUW) and the Alaska Airlines team! JWI served as the construction manager for the expansion of the airport's terminal from 8,000 to 45,000 square feet, marking a significant milestone for PUW. This project features a brand-new airline operations setup, including new Ops space, air-to-ground radio, locker rooms, a data center, a GSE break room, ticketing and gate counters with digital displays, bag tag stations, and signage. Additionally, the project included the addition of two new jet bridges and a state-of-the-art bag handling system — a first for PUW! The new terminal saw its first flight depart on May 22nd at 5 am, a proud moment for Pullman, Moscow, Washington State University, and the University of Idaho. We're grateful for the opportunity to work on this transformative project with Alaska Airlines! #Chicago #Denver #Orlando #construction #aviation #transportation #constructionmanagement #projectmanagement
