Built right since 1985
Cannon is a fully integrated utility infrastructure contractor headquartered in Milton, Washington, building power, telecommunications, directional drilling and engineering work across the western United States and on federal installations nationwide, including Hawaii, Guam and Kwajalein. Since 1985 the measure has not changed: Cannon builds infrastructure it would want to own, under four hallmarks of Safety, Quality, Integrity and Teamwork.
Infrastructure for the owners who operate it
Cannon delivers electrical, telecommunications, engineering and directional drilling work for federal prime contractors and the Department of Defense and civilian agencies behind them, investor owned utilities and public utility districts, municipalities and school districts, tribal governments, and carriers and network owners such as Comcast, Zayo, Crown Castle and Astound. Electrical services run from design-build and bid-build through construction, service and maintenance. On the telecommunications side Cannon offers end-to-end design and installation of voice, video and data networks, from a long haul backbone across a state to the riser in a single building.
The capability behind that list is specific: a high voltage craft workforce of 50 under the NECA outside line agreement, BICSI and FOA certified telecommunications technicians working under staffed RCDDs, an engineering group with 33,700 permits approved, and 600+ pieces of owned equipment, from directional drills to bucket trucks. Founded by Michael Cannon in 1985, Cannon joined the Bristol Bay Industrial family in 2020 and is a certified Minority Business Enterprise and a federally recognized Small Disadvantaged Business.
Four service lines
High voltage power
Overhead and underground transmission and distribution, substations and switching stations, energized line work and storm response.
Telecommunications
Outside plant, inside plant, long haul and middle mile backbone and cable reclamation.
Directional drilling
Horizontal directional drilling in rock, cobble and under rivers, installing conduit and pipe for fiber, power, gas, water and sewer.
Engineering and design
Route design, permitting, LiDAR and survey, pole loading analysis and construction-ready plan sets.
Safety, Quality, Integrity and Teamwork
Safety
The first hallmark and the one the others rest on. An experience factor more than 30 percent below the baseline, stop work authority for every employee and a job briefing before every task. Safety program
Quality
Verified before the work starts, while it is in progress and on the way to turnover, and documented in systems the owner can see. Quality and information security
Integrity
Cannon says what it will do and does it: the estimate, the plan, the schedule and the client relationship belong to the same people from award to closeout.
Teamwork
Since 1985, Cannon's reputation and success have been built on a commitment to employee career growth. A majority of the workforce has more than 20 years of service. Careers
