Who We Are
CORD is a group of imperfect people working to build the perfect construction company.
But in order to do that, it takes help from our clients, designers and trade partners.
Our History
Founded in 2019 by Bryce Thompson, CORD is a commercial general contractor built from the ground up. What began with one small project and a simple principle — focus on people and walk the walk — has grown into an emerging construction company with a bold vision for the future.
Our early work centered on restaurant and interior renovations, where we earned a reputation for being hands-on, responsive, and people-first. That foundation has since expanded to include ground-up multifamily developments, complex historic and adaptive reuse projects, and partnerships with ambitious clients and talented designers. Along the way, we’ve built a growing office and field team that lives out our culture every day.
While our portfolio spans a wide range of sectors, what truly defines us isn’t the type of work — it’s the people we work with. We don’t chase projects; we chase people. That mindset continues to shape who we are and how we build.
Headquartered in downtown Oklahoma City, we’re proud to be an award-winning company recognized for the work we’ve delivered — but even more proud of the relationships we’ve built along the way.
We’re proud of where we started. We’re proud of who we’ve become. But most of all, we’re excited about what’s ahead.
We’re just getting started.
Our Philosophy: People Over Projects
Budgets, timelines and quality are all critical aspects of a project and do ultimately determine the level of success for the project. At CORD, we believe there is also a fourth aspect too often overlooked: Project Culture. We want to add value to the lives of everyone involved and we believe we can accomplish this by keeping the main thing the main thing, the people.
