For the ninth consecutive year, Dow Smith Company has been named a Certified Best Christian Workplace by the Best Christian Workplaces Institute. This certification is based entirely on a survey of our employees.

We are a Middle Tennessee design-build firm, specializing in commercial, healthcare, and church construction projects, ranging from ground-up construction to renovations and additions. Since the company was founded by Dow Smith in 1992, we have worked with hundreds of businesses and churches in Middle Tennessee.

Dow Smith Company has been certified by the Best Christian Workplaces Institute longer than any other business in the state.

“We’re honored to receive this certification again this year,” says Visionary Dow Smith. “We believe our purpose is to serve and our mission is to serve Christ in the marketplace. I hope that comes through in everything we do.”

Certified organizations received exemplary ratings from their employees who have completed the Best Christian Workplaces Institute’s employee engagement survey. The organizations were evaluated according to BCWI’s FLOURISH model: Fantastic teams, Life-giving work, Outstanding talent, Uplifting growth, Rewarding compensation, Inspirational leadership, Sustainable strategy, and Healthy communication.

“We strive every day to demonstrate to our clients and employees that our Core Values are something we live, not just talk about,” Dow says. “We are intentional about maintaining a culture based on caring, passion, hustle, and detail.”
