New Partnership: Bailey-Harris Construction
Auburn, AL: Third Lens Ministries is pleased to announce its newest Industry Partnership with Bailey-Harris Construction, an Alabama-based general contractor. Bailey-Harris will provide Third Lens with professional services and resources, and will actively participate in several projects per year.
In 1979 Jack Bailey and Allen Harris formed Bailey-Harris Construction Company, Inc. Founded on integrity, wisdom, hard work and customer satisfaction, the partnership grew steadily for 12 years and in 1991, Mr. Harris became the sole owner of Bailey-Harris Construction. Customer service and continued persistence on the success of each project have allowed the firm to escalate its capabilities from the first project of $214,000 to a recent project of $100,000,000.
Today under the leadership of partners Allen Harris, Russell Harris and Travis Gamble, Bailey-Harris has constructed virtually all types of construction projects. They employ the latest technology in their Estimating and Project Management groups and their Superintendents exhibit superior managerial, building and subcontract management skills.
“I couldn’t be more excited to have Bailey-Harris Construction join the mission of Third Lens with their contribution of resources and employees volunteering to work on several of our projects.” said Brian O’Neil, Third Lens’ Executive Director. “Russell and Travis are leaders in the construction industry building upon the culture of hard work and generosity started by Mr. Bailey and Mr. Harris 38 years ago.”
Russell Harris notes “This partnership with Third Lens provides us a unique opportunity to support a ministry not only at the corporate level, but also at the personal level. Typically when we support an organization, our contribution is strictly monetary, but this opportunity allows our employees to be personally involved and give of their own time, treasure and talent. We’ll be putting our professional expertise in construction to work for the front-line ministries that need it most.”
Third Lens Ministries is a network of architects, engineers, construction and real estate professionals that partners with front-line ministries in developing communities and countries. Third Lens provides comprehensive planning, design and construction management services to organizations in need of facilities. The ministry specializes in projects with medical, holistic healing, orphan care and educational components. Third Lens was founded in 2009 as a 501(c)3, non-profit with offices in Atlanta, GA and Auburn, AL.
