At the Tepa Companies, we are proud to recognize the women who shape the construction field—leading projects, driving innovation, and strengthening jobsite safety.

To all the women in construction—your contributions matter, and your leadership is shaping the future of our industry. Let’s continue building an environment where every woman feels empowered to succeed. One inspiring story comes from Bethany Cassidy, a Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO) for Tepa.

Happy National Engineers Week! In recognition of our talented engineers, we’re thrilled to showcase the work of Tepa Engineering Services, LLC (Tepa ES)! Their recent project at the Flinn Springs Fire Station in San Diego County exemplifies their excellent work! As part of this project, Tepa ES partnered with CAL FIRE to upgrade the station’s apparatus bay, the space used for storing fire trucks. The upgrades allow the station to accommodate today’s larger fire trucks, improving efficiency and response time. The project included replacing three small garage doors with two larger ones and adding a pull-through bay for better access. We’re proud to recognize the incredible engineers behind this essential project and their contributions to safer, more efficient emergency response! #WeAreTepaCompanies #EngineersWeek2025
