Women in Construction Week at Boyer Fire Protection

What is Women in Construction Week?<\/h2>\n

Women in Construction Week exists to recognize and support the growing number of women building careers in an industry that has historically been male dominated. Today, women make up roughly 11% of the construction workforce<\/strong>, and that number continues to grow as more women pursue careers in the trades, project management, design, and leadership roles across the industry.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Women in Construction Week theme, \u201cLevel Up. Build Strong.\u201d<\/strong>, highlights the continued growth, resilience, and leadership of women across the construction industry. The theme encourages professionals at every stage of their careers to keep advancing their skills, strengthening their teams, and building a stronger future for the industry.<\/p>\n

Celebrating Our Team<\/h2>\n
At Boyer Fire Protection, that message resonates with the work we see happening every day. From apprentices entering the trade to experienced professionals leading projects and supporting operations, women across our organization continue to level up their careers while helping build a stronger team and industry.\u00a0One highlight of the week was celebrating one of our sprinkler fitter apprentices, who is currently one of only two women in her apprenticeship class, <\/strong>a reminder that the next generation of skilled trades professionals is continuing to grow and evolve.\u00a0Throughout the week, we also took time to recognize the contributions of the women across our organization through a team lunch, a team-building activity, and a social media campaign highlighting each woman at Boyer and the perspectives they bring to the industry.<\/p>\n
Looking Forward<\/h2>\n
Women in Construction Week is an opportunity to recognize the impact women have across the construction industry. At Boyer Fire Protection, we\u2019re proud to work alongside women who continue to strengthen our team, our culture, and the future of the fire protection industry.<\/p>","tablet":"

Boyer Facilitates Historic Fox Theatre Fire Pump Donation to City Museum

Boyer Facilitates Historic Fox Theatre Fire Pump Donation to City Museum

Boyer Fire Protection recently helped preserve a unique piece of St. Louis history by facilitating the transfer of a 100-year-old fire pump from the historic Fox Theatre to the City Museum.

When Boyer was brought in to replace the Fox Theatre’s existing fire pump system, the team recognized the historic value of the original equipment. As a result, Boyer proposed donating the pump rather than scrapping it. The Fox Theatre enthusiastically supported the idea.

With their approval, Boyer safely removed the pump and delivered it to the City Museum. It will soon be displayed as part of an upcoming exhibit featuring industrial and architectural artifacts. This display will allow visitors to learn more about the evolution of fire protection systems.

“Our work often connects us to remarkable pieces of St. Louis history,” said Chris Swope, Superintendent, of Boyer Fire Protection. “We’re proud to have played a role in preserving this one and ensuring it finds a permanent home where the public can appreciate it.”

This collaboration highlights Boyer Fire Protection’s commitment to community partnerships and preservation. It also reflects the company’s dedication to honoring the evolution of fire protection systems throughout the region.

Boyer Strengthens Operations with Procore Implementation

Boyer Strengthens Operations with Procore Implementation

Continual improvement has always been central to how Boyer Fire Protection operates. As our teams, service areas, and project demands continue to grow, so does the need for systems that keep us aligned, efficient, and connected. To support that commitment, Boyer Fire Protection is implementing Procore<\/strong>, a leading project management platform used across the construction industry. The rollout will begin this winter and continue in phases.<\/p>\n
For our customers, this investment means clearer communication, stronger documentation, and a more streamlined experience from start to finish. For our internal teams, it provides the structure and tools needed to support project delivery at a higher level. This includes design, project management, fabrication, and field operations.<\/p>\n
Why Procore?<\/strong><\/p>\n
With multiple regions and a diverse range of projects, our teams need a platform that brings all project details into one place. Procore helps us do that by offering consistent workflows and real-time transparency.<\/p>\n
With Procore, Boyer Fire Protection will be able to:<\/p>\n
\n
improve communication between office teams and field<\/li>\n
centralize project documentation, drawings, and correspondence<\/li>\n
strengthen coordination on RFIs, submittals, and change orders<\/li>\n
increase visibility for project managers, designers, and leadership<\/li>\n
streamline closeout procedures to support faster, cleaner turnover<\/li>\n
Ppovide our customers with a more professional and organized experience<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
By standardizing the way information is shared and tracked, we reduce the gaps and delays that often occur between project phases.<\/p>\n
Supporting Our Teams Across All Locations<\/strong><\/p>\n
With offices in St. Louis, Southern Illinois, and Madison, having a unified project management system is essential. Procore will help ensure each location follows the same processes, uses the same standards, and communicates through the same structure. This consistency strengthens our ability to support customers across regions and gives employees a clearer, more predictable workflow.<\/p>\n
Our phased rollout allows teams to adopt the platform at a manageable pace. Training will be tailored to the needs of each department as the implementation continues.<\/p>\n
Investing in the Future<\/strong><\/p>\n
Adopting Procore is more than a software change. It reflects Boyer Fire Protection\u2019s long-term commitment to improvement, innovation, and operational excellence. As industry expectations evolve, Procore positions us to stay competitive and maintain the level of quality our customers expect.<\/p>\n
This initiative also supports employee development. Procore experience is widely valued in the construction industry and strengthens the skillsets of our team members. It also helps attract future talent by aligning Boyer with the tools used by top contractors.<\/p>\n
Moving Forward<\/strong><\/p>\n
As we begin this rollout, our focus remains the same: strengthening how we serve customers and equipping employees with the tools they need to succeed. Procore is a strategic step toward building more efficient systems, improving communication, and delivering strong results across every region.<\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence in the Construction Industry

Artificial Intelligence in the Construction Industry

Back in April, we explored how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming construction and fire protection by streamlining workflows, improving safety, and supporting smarter decision-making. We discussed how AI was already enhancing system design, project planning, jobsite safety, inspection analytics, and fire detection. New AI tools in the construction industry like ALICE Plan, Archistar, and SALUS Safety Assistant were beginning to make an impact, and just a few months later, those advancements have only accelerated and reshaped the approach to construction.<\/p>","tablet":"
The construction industry has long been a male-dominated field, but women have played a crucial role in its success for decades as builders, leaders, innovators, and advocates for progress. Each year, Women in Construction (WIC) Week shines a spotlight on the contributions of women in the industry while encouraging future generations to explore careers in construction.<\/p>\n

AI’s Role in Fire Protection

AI is also making its way into the fire protection world, not to replace experts in the industry, but to assist them in making smarter, faster decisions.

System Design Automation
Certain platforms now use AI to help lay out sprinkler systems, check for code compliance, and flag design inconsistencies. What took hours of manual review can now happen in minutes.

Fire Risk Modeling
AI tools are beginning to simulate fire and smoke behavior within a building. These predictive models help optimize system layout and detect risk zones early in the design process.

Inspection & Maintenance
AI is being used to analyze inspection reports, service records, and equipment trends to predict system failures, allowing for proactive, targeted maintenance and flagging early signs of poor performance to ensure timely upkeep of fire protection systems.

Early Detection Systems
Smart detection systems powered by AI can distinguish between steam, smoke, and real flames, reducing false alarms and enabling faster response.

What This Means for Boyer Fire Protection

Whether it’s enhancing inspections, simplifying code compliance, or helping teams respond faster to on-site needs, AI is allowing us to work smarter, faster, and safer.

At Boyer Fire Protection, we’re continuing to evaluate and adopt the right tools to serve our customers and protect what matters most.

Jim Michels Joins AGC Wisconsin Specialty Contractor Board

Boyer Fire Protection — Tue, 25 Feb 2025 20:08:07 +0000

Back to All News

Jim Michels Joins AGC Wisconsin Specialty Contractor Board

Jim Michels Joins AGC Wisconsin Specialty Contractor Board

Boyer Fire Protection is proud to share that Jim Michels, V.P. of Design and Wisconsin Branch Manager, has joined the Associated General Contractors of Wisconsin (AGC WI) Specialty Contractor Board of Directors. This Board, which consists of eight industry professionals from various specialty trades, plays a key role in advocating for contractors across the state.

About the AGC Wisconsin

The AGC WI provides valuable insights into government regulations, labor relations, safety, and industry trends, helping contractors stay competitive. “Being a part of AGC Wisconsin allows access to these resources, which is why Boyer Fire Protection became a member last year after entering the Wisconsin fire sprinkler contractor market,” Jim explained. This membership aligns with Boyer Fire Protection’s goal to establish itself as a trusted fire sprinkler contractor in the region, strengthening its presence and building strong industry relationships.

After attending AGC WI networking events and meeting key industry leaders, Jim was invited to fill a Director seat on the Specialty Contractor Board. This three-year term includes quarterly meetings that focus on industry-wide challenges, from government and legal issues to workforce development and education. Jim noted, “The first meeting I attended, I was amazed at the topics that were addressed and discussed. These appeared to me to be all ‘behind the scenes’ topics—things most of us don’t get much of a chance to learn in our day-to-day work, yet they completely drive our industry.”

By serving on this board, Jim is not only representing Boyer Fire Protection but also ensuring that the company remains informed and engaged in key discussions affecting specialty contractors. This opportunity enables Jim to advocate for specialty contractors while also ensuring that Boyer Fire Protection stays ahead of industry developments. Through this role, we are given the opportunity to proactively address challenges, strengthen partnerships, and enhance our ability to deliver top-tier fire protection solutions in the Wisconsin market.

Jim’s role will provide Boyer Fire Protection with firsthand insights into industry changes, potential regulatory shifts, and workforce trends that can influence operations in Wisconsin and beyond. Richard M. Boyer, President of Boyer Fire Protection, adds, “Boyer Fire Protection remains committed to growing its presence in Wisconsin, and Jim’s appointment to the AGC WI Specialty Contractor Board reinforces that commitment.” By actively participating in leadership and industry advocacy, Boyer Fire Protection continues to establish itself as a key player in fire sprinkler protection across the region.

Choosing the Right Fire Protection Contractor

Choosing the Right Fire Protection Contractor

When it comes to protecting lives and property, choosing the right fire protection contractor is critical. At Boyer Fire Protection, we pride ourselves on being a full-service provider, offering everything from fire sprinkler installations to inspections, testing, maintenance (ITM), fire extinguishers, emergency lights, and 24/7 emergency services. With decades of experience, our team is dedicated to designing, installing, and maintaining fire protection systems to the highest safety standards.

Whether you’re planning a new construction project, retrofitting an older system, or needing ongoing service, we offer the expertise and reliability you need to ensure safety and compliance. In this blog, we’ll guide you on what to look for in a fire protection contractor and why Boyer Fire Protection stands out as your trusted partner.

Why Expertise Matters in Fire Protection

Fire protection systems are complex and highly regulated, which is why expertise should be at the top of your list when selecting a contractor. A knowledgeable contractor ensures that your system meets all relevant NFPA codes, local regulations, and insurance requirements.

At Boyer Fire Protection, our NICET-certified designers and experienced technicians bring a level of expertise that ensures your project is not only compliant but also optimized for efficiency and cost savings. For example, we recently partnered with a commercial property to redesign their outdated fire sprinkler system, reducing their costs by 15% while improving system performance.<\/p>\n
Choosing a contractor with proven experience gives you peace of mind that your project is in capable hands.<\/p>\n
Fire Protection Contracting Services<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fire Extinguishers and Emergency Lights: <\/strong>Sales, inspections, and maintenance to keep your facilities safe and up to code.<\/li>\n
Emergency Services: <\/strong>24\/7 response to address critical fire protection issues.<\/li>\n
Retrofits and Upgrades: <\/strong>Modernizing older systems to meet current NFPA standards and improve reliability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","phone":"
