KCM Group Celebrates 20 Years in Business

January 16, 2025

KCM Group recently reached an important milestone in our history that we’re proud to share: 20 years of delivering exceptional owner’s project management, construction management, and cost estimating services throughout New England.

Since our founding in October 2004, we’ve grown from humble beginnings into one of Rhode Island’s most trusted construction management firms. Our story began with Ray Keough, a seasoned construction professional who launched Keough Construction Management with a vision: to provide owners undertaking capital expansion projects with trusted design and construction advice. Thanks to Ray’s leadership and commitment to client success, our company quickly earned a reputation for excellence across a range of industries including education, healthcare, and commercial development.

In 2022, we embraced a new chapter and embarked on a rebranding initiative as KCM Group. Ray transitioned the company to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), ensuring the dedicated team that built KCM’s legacy now owns its future. Under the leadership of Dan Secone as President, we’ve continued to innovate while staying true to our guiding principle: “Managing success, one project at a time.”

Everything we do starts with understanding our clients’ needs. From initial conversations to project closeout, our team is committed to engaging stakeholders, proactively managing cost and schedules, and delivering results that exceed expectations. To our clients, partners, and incredible team—thank you for 20 remarkable years of trust, collaboration, and shared success. Here’s to building the next chapter together!
