The Construction Industry Round Table (CIRT) has elected Greg Kelly, P.E., CEO of STV (New York, NY), as its 2026–2027 Chairman. Kelly was elected during CIRT's Annual Spring Conference last week in Washington, D.C., succeeding Tom Reilly, President of Turner Construction, who served as the organization's 2025–2026 Chairman.

“CIRT’s members play a critical role in shaping the nation’s built environment,” said Kelly. “As chairman, my focus will be on strengthening CIRT as a unified voice for our industry, helping members harness technology, advance safety and develop the next generation of leaders, while continuing to elevate practices that improve performance across design and construction.”

In welcoming the new Chairman, CIRT President R. Corey Clayborne, FAIA, stated: “As we approach CIRT's landmark 40th anniversary in 2027, I am incredibly excited to collaboratively partner with Greg as we work together to empower our leaders to drive meaningful, positive change across the design and construction industry. As an inductee to the National Academy of Construction and the Past Chair of the New York Building Congress, he is one of the most decorated professionals in our industry. I am truly fortunate to serve alongside such a transformational leader.”
