Founded in 1987, CDI was founded with the sole purpose to construct retail facilities for the upscale department store retailer Dillard’s Inc. CDI rose in the industry by successfully delivering Dillard’s department stores all over the United States, with many being constructed simultaneously. CDI brings this efficiency to private and public industry, now building facilities for Government, Banking, Industrial/Manufacturing, Retail, Education, Hospitality, Offices, Healthcare, and many other market sectors. CDI has offices in Little Rock and Fayetteville, Arkansas and Frisco, Texas. We are currently available to perform any construction in 45 states across the country.

CDI’s extensive nationwide presence, specialized construction expertise, financial strength and bonding capacity combine to make us distinctly qualified to complete any construction project large or small. Because of our breadth of experience, we can scale our services to the particular and special needs of each project. This ability translates to our clients receiving the same level of quality services whether the project size is $100 thousand or $100 million.

President & CEO Lloyd Garrison and Central Arkansas Division Director Jonathan Semans.

CDI has served many high-profile clients and have amassed an impressive and award-winning portfolio. Some of the most notable facilities in the state have been built by CDI. Among these are the Bank OZK corporate headquarters, Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium renovation at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, the U.S. Marshals Museum in Fort Smith, the historic Robinson Center renovation, the William J. Clinton Presidential Center, the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, and countless more. We are proud that our facilities continue to serve the people of Arkansas and the Nation with efficient and quality construction for decades to come.
