The company RIPCONCIV Civil Construction Co. Ltd.
was formally constituted on July 26th 1996, with a nomi-
nal capital of S / 2’000 000.00 sucres.
After 12 years of work, it has accumulated assets of
more than USD$ 2’500 thousand and revenues of more
than USD$30 million, placing it within the 500 largest
companies in Ecuador and within the top 10 companies
in the Construction segment.
This growth has allowed RIPCONSIV to consolidate its
presence in the construction sector in Ecuador.
Along with this growth, the company has endeavoured
to invest in the organization, quality and administrative
tools, machinery, equipment and vehicles, as well as in
training and development of its personnel that may be
evidenced by the ISO 9001 certification. It has imple-
mented advanced methodologies such as PMI Project
Management, Lean Construction, integrated computer
systems and other tools necessary to deliver high qual-
ity services to its customers.
Infrastructure projects are of vital importance for socio-
economic development of the country, since they pro-
vide the foundation for growth and progress of the cities
where these projects are developed. This is why, since
its very inception, Ripconciv Civil Construction Co. Ltd.
developed a wide range of infrastructure projects, mak-
ing the company an important part of public and private
development, bringing its work and experience in the
most significant civil projects in the country, such as,
ports, airports, hydroelectric projects, oil works, etc.
Main projects around the country: international port of
Guayaquil and Manta, Manta air base, regeneration of
neighbourhoods, roads, bridges, dams, buildings such
as theAmerican Embassy, its current headquarters, the
Holiday Inn hotel, and the railroad. In some projects it
works in cooperation with the government, but the vast
majority are private projects. They have strategic alli-
ances with other construction companies such as Hi-
dalgo and Hidalgo. They work also in Guayaquil with
the Municipality, Contecon, Interagua, Pronobis, etc.
and have an alliance with the Spanish company Indox.
