| Summary: | Bear is a "self-performing" commercial construction company, an industry term that means the company employs its own trade laborers. The company can control quality, scheduling and costs by "self- performing" in all areas but those requiring specialists, like electrical, fire protection, heating, ventilation and air conditioning installation. In October 2002, Bear relocated from Arlington Heights, where the company had outgrown its motley collection of trailers. In the entryway of Bear's new 36,000-square-foot office in Rolling Meadows, visitors are greeted by a stuffed bear outfitted in a tool belt, baseball hat and T-shirt sporting the company motif. Stuffed toy bears and bear collectibles peek out from shelves and corners. bearco_1bi110805mw Brothers [George, Nick] and [Jim Wienold], left to right, stand in front of their company, Bear Construction Co., in Rolling Meadows.
