What is The Red Badger Award at RedBuilt?

Persistence in problem-solving. Never giving up. Doing whatever it takes to service the needs of the customer. These are “Badger-like” behaviors that exemplify RedBuilt™ associates who win the annual Red Badger award.

2019 Red Badger Award Winner:

Tim Kolb, Project Manager in Boise, Idaho
March 2020 will be his 23^rd year with RedBuilt.

Tim has a great depth of product and design knowledge. That, coupled with his attention to detail and passion for doing things the right way, allows him to anticipate issues before they arise.
What sets him apart is his empathy and ability to balance the customer’s needs with RedBuilt’s needs and keep both parties moving forward.
Tim always has a “let’s do this” attitude and uses it to encourage his team members around him.

In the words of a customer: “He has been awesome since his first day. He does everything he says he is going to do. He is great about following up, and if things aren’t getting answered fast enough, he calls to see if he can talk with others directly involved, to help expedite. He’s thorough, organized and a pleasure to work with. He’s great.”

Associate Professional Engineer Certifications

We help people build commercial structures, and internally we help build people.

We know that all structures have a blueprint to follow. Blueprints depict a clear picture of the finished product. Along with blueprints; there are key milestones along the way. Professional development is one of those milestones and a point of pride at RedBuilt.

That’s why we’d like to recognize three engineers in our crew that have reached an important milestone — becoming licensed professional engineers.
