KBS was founded in August of 2000 by Dennis Klein, Tom Schuchardt, and Pat Babe.  These three combined over 100 years of construction and development experience to form a new general construction company serving southeast Wisconsin.  The foundation of the KBS business plan was to assemble the best field operations in Wisconsin and supplement that with superior estimating and project management services.  The combination of the best self-perform construction operations, with high quality management, utilizing state of the art tools and systems, has helped KBS steadily grow into one of the largest contractors in Wisconsin. 

In 2005, Doug Carlson joined KBS as a vice president, Chief Financial Officer and shareholder.  Doug’s wealth of experience and quality reputation in the industry is a substantial asset to the company. 

This group’s diverse experience in administration, field operations, accounting, finance and development enables KBS to approach every project with a unique understanding of not only design and construction, but the intricacies of financing, developing and marketing the final product. 

Our first eleven years have seen a consistent growth, during which we have successfully completed over $475 million in construction. KBS Construction, Inc. has a singular goal: to become the contractor of choice by providing superior skills, services – and results.
