History

Bob L. Moss, a 40-year veteran of the construction trade spent 22 years with a Fortune 250 construction firm, where he managed the company's Florida operations and eventually became chairman, president and CEO. He retired from that position and in March 2003 established Moss & Associates in 2004.[5] His son, Scott Moss, was one of the first to join the team and son, Chad Moss, followed soon thereafter. Scott Moss serves as the company's President and Chad Moss is Senior Vice President. As of 2017 the company had approximately 540 employees.[6][7]

Operations

Moss & Associates is a recipient of the University of South Florida's Sunshine State Safety Award.[8]

As the eighth largest green builder in the southeast,[9] and counted among the top 100 green builders in the United States,[10] Moss & Associates takes a proactive approach to preserving the environment by investing heavily in LEED training for executives and operations and preconstruction teams. By 2009, Moss had 35 employees designated as LEED Accredited Professionals (AP) with an additional 27 in the process of obtaining the AP designation offered by the U.S. Green Building Council. In 2013, Moss & Associates agreed to acquire Peter R. Brown Construction, the construction management at risk business of Atkins.[11]

In 2019, Moss & Associates made an investment in Fortress Identity, a Miami-based company specialising in active and passive biometric identity solutions.[12]
