PKF-Mark III, Inc. (“PKF”) lives by the following guiding principles in how we conduct ourselves and interface with all Stakeholders. At PKF, we define Stakeholders as our Clients, our Loyal Employees and their Families, our Business Partners, and the Communities in which we work.

Safety
Safety comes first and is foremost in planning and executing all aspects of our work. It is an essential value….it is “who we are.” Since our Inception in 1969, PKF is “Proud to be Safe.”

Teamwork
The PKF approach is founded upon strong, collaborative efforts that ensure the sharing of ideas and the involvement of all Stakeholders. As thought leaders in the industry, our team creates solutions that get the job done on time and done correctly.
Excellence
Our passion and drive to be the best is evidenced by the superior quality of our workmanship. Our attention to detail makes the most difficult tasks appear simple. We strive in all matters to achieve a standard that exceeds those in the industry, and we will not accept anything less.
Our Vision
PKF-Mark III’s (“PKF”) vision is to be the premier employee-owned engineering, construction and management company within its chosen markets – a company whose Stakeholders and the communities in which it works view as integral to their respective success. PKF anticipates its Stakeholders’ needs, creates unique solutions, and delivers on every commitment it makes.
Since its inception in 1969, PKF has changed and grown into one of the region’s premier general contracting firms with a commitment to safety, productivity, timely completion and most of all, excellent quality of work resulting in a finished product that makes the firm and owner/client proud. Excellence Built on Integrity is PKF’s motto, and it strives to keep those words in mind and relevant every day that its employees arrive on the job.
On behalf of owners such as the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, New Jersey Transit, New Jersey Department of Transportation, Amtrak and local Municipalities and Authorities throughout, PKF’s work spans the length of New Jersey, from Mahwah to Cape May and Toms River to Trenton. PKF continues to work in Eastern and Southeastern Pennsylvania as well, performing work for the likes of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission and the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), to name a few.
Priding itself on its ability to self-perform most of the critical aspects of its work, PKF has traditionally performed many major plant, bridge and highway projects throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland, none of which could have been accomplished without good people and great craftsmen.

Despite the passage of over 50 years in business, several changes in corporate leadership, and the expansion of the size and scope of our work, PKF remains committed to its Corporate Vision and Motto because, “Excellence Built On Integrity” is not just a saying around PKF – it is a way of life.
Employee Ownership
