Every construction project is different, and the way it is delivered should be too.
Murphy & Sons, Inc. offers a full range of commercial and industrial construction services so owners can choose the delivery method that best fits their budget, schedule, and level of involvement. From early planning through final closeout, our Southaven-based team has guided projects across Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Alabama since 1977.
As a general contractor, Murphy & Sons manages every trade, schedule, and safety program on your job site. Unlike builders who subcontract nearly everything, we keep key capabilities in-house:
Our construction management services give you an experienced advocate who oversees cost, schedule, quality, and safety from design through completion. Construction management is ideal for complex projects, projects where the scope is still evolving, and owners who want transparency and control. Our team provides full-time supervision, enforces strict safety programs, and checks in regularly so your goals are always being met.
With design-build, one contract covers both design and construction. Architects, engineers, and builders work as a single team from the start, which reduces costly redesigns, speeds up schedules, and gives you one point of responsibility. Design-build works well for offices, schools, industrial buildings, shelters, and nearly any facility type.
The most important decisions on any project are made before construction begins. Our preconstruction services include budgeting, scheduling, constructability reviews, value engineering, and risk assessments. Early collaboration helps avoid rework, keeps goals on target, and keeps your project on budget.
Complex projects have many moving parts and shifting targets. Our project management services coordinate planning, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning, whether you are building on a single site or managing improvements across multiple locations. We control costs, protect scope, and keep everyone accountable.
Not every project fits a preset category. Our Special Projects Group delivers flexible, turnkey solutions for renovations, building expansions, office remodels, senior care facility upgrades, guardrail and bollard installation, and other unique needs. These projects get the same leadership and quality standards as our largest builds.
Choosing the right delivery method depends on your priorities:

In design-build, one company holds a single contract for both design and construction. In construction management, the owner typically contracts with the designer separately while the construction manager oversees cost, schedule, and building. Both reduce risk compared to traditional design-bid-build.
