Superintendent of the Year

Kevin Lanham

Exxel Pacific

Kevin Lanham has dedicated his skill, expertise and service to Exxel Pacific for 10 years as a superintendent and has over 24 years in the construction industry. He is a true leader and champion of safety.

Lanham places the highest emphasis on the health, safety and welfare of all workers on his projects, personifying the “best in class” safety qualities that every project must have to be successful. He fully understands Exxel Pacific’s company message that safety is a value at work and at home, and exemplifies this through his leadership.

On Exxel Pacific’s Velo apartment project in Fremont, Lanham could always be seen training or supporting safety efforts with his sleeves rolled up. Although Lanham is a senior superintendent, he will repair a guardrail, post warning signage or even clean up debris to prevent a trip or fall hazard. With his focus and leadership the Velo project was very successful, with over 142,000 hours worked with zero time-loss injuries.

According to Exxel’s safety director Joe Sadler, “In my years of working with Kevin Lanham, he has never sacrificed safety, and is very focused on the details necessary for a safe project.”

Lanham embodies the “safety champion” qualities that every project must have to be successful and that every superintendent must have to keep workers safe.
