The full-service contracting company offers turnkey design\/build services for both pre-engineered buildings and conventional structures. Their primary trade area is Northwest Ohio, although Alexander &amp; Bebout has completed projects in seven states. Notable projects completed recently include the 24,000-square-foot Ohio State Beauty Academy for the University of Northwestern Ohio in Lima, and industrial buildings for Unverferth Manufacturing Company in Kalida and Delphos.<\/p>\n<p>Alexander and the late Gene Bebout formed the contracting company in March 1965 and initially concentrated on farm structures and silos before evolving into larger off-farm and more complex industrial and commercial opportunities. Design\/build project delivery, a method that combines both design and construction responsibilities under the contractor, has become a specialty for the company.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Tom and Sylvia Alexander, Sara Zura, their granddaughter and a licensed professional engineer, is a company vice president and project manager. Other project managers include Steve Bebout, Stan Hitchcock, Charlie Salway and Brad Ream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KANSAS CITY, Mo. &#8212; Alexander &amp; Bebout Inc., a Butler Builder\u00ae headquartered in Van Wert, was honored as the 2011 Builder of the Year for the Midwest Region of Butler Manufacturing, the world sales\u00a0 leader in pre-engineered metal building systems.
