Founded by Craig Stevens in 2011, Genesis 360 offers a host of services to help companies increase efficiency, optimize costs and drive sustainable growth by offering management support for all aspects of operations: integrated vendor management, construction management, IT service management, supply management, payroll management and staff augmentation management.
“Management has always been the heart of our work. It’s a critical part of any project, no matter how large or small,” Stevens said.
“You may have a subcontractor who does great concrete or pile driving, but if it’s not on schedule or over budget, this can hinder an operation, costing the client potentially millions of dollars.”
Efficiency and cost savings are at the heart of every conversation Stevens has with customers. “Every company of a relative size has payroll that needs to be managed. IT management can be as simple as email support or as major as cybersecurity. And so, many businesses are going to utilize those services,” said Stevens, an Opelousas native with a degree in IT.
“Our conversations are about how we can do it more efficiently.”
Vendor management is another solution that benefits companies of all sizes, he said. Smaller companies might work with 30 or 40 vendors, while large corporations and oil and gas plants will manage thousands. Having a partner to manage all those vendors cuts costs and eliminates administrative burdens.
Keeping projects moving smoothly is something the mission-driven veteran of the Air Force understands. Stevens’ Baton Rouge-based firm that began as a parking lot striping company and later grew into a full-service construction, maintenance and IT company, posted a record $26 million in revenue in 2023, placing it on the Inc. 5000 list for the second consecutive year. In 2022, Genesis 360 was named Business Report’s Company of the Year (more than 100 employees).
The company acquired Lafayette based heavy civil construction firm MEAD Heavy Civil in January and is currently managing major projects at NASA Space Center, the Naval Academy, Veteran’s Administration headquarters, and for the Army Corps of Engineers, among others.
Stevens said he’s grateful for the opportunities he’s had through Genesis 360 to make a difference for customers and subcontractors. “Success is about evolving to meet client needs. That’s our goal!”
