Acquisitions

Intentional Growth through Strategic Acquisitions

Baker Group is growing. As an employee-owned company, every team member has a vested interest in delivering exceptional results, driving sustainable, long-term growth. For Baker Group, acquisitions are a deliberate strategy to expand our expertise, strengthen client relationships, and create opportunities for our people. We partner with organizations that share our commitment to people, clients, and lasting success.

Our Approach to Acquisitions

We pursue acquisitions that complement our existing strengths and enhance the value we deliver to clients. Our focus areas include MEP contractors with modular fabrication experience and capacity, HVAC service contractors, and building automation and controls firms that advance performance, efficiency, and reliability in the built environment. Ideal partners share our passion for quality, integrity, and service. We seek companies with strong customer relationships, talented teams, and a desire to join a financially strong, employee-owned organization committed to long-term growth rather than short-term transactions.

Why Partner With Baker Group

Baker Group has a proven track record of welcoming new companies into our employee-owned organization. Our intentional integration approach honors each partner’s identity while combining the best ideas, processes, and strategies from every team. This disciplined process strengthens the value we deliver to our clients and the opportunities we provide to our employees. Recent acquisitions have expanded our capabilities and added to our growing team of skilled professionals serving clients across the Midwest.

Culture-Driven Integration

At Baker Group, culture is the cornerstone of every acquisition. We prioritize smooth transitions that preserve customer relationships, retain key leaders, and minimize disruption for employees. Companies joining Baker Group become part of a people-first culture that rewards performance, collaboration, and long-term commitment. Non-collectively bargained employees participate directly in our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), sharing in the success they help create. All team members benefit from the strength, resources, and reputation of a trusted industry leader, as well as new opportunities for growth and professional development.
