Doug Davidson
Chief Executive Officer
Doug founded New South Construction Company in 1990 and began performing construction services for clients like Delta Air Lines and The Coca-Cola Company. Now, almost 30 years later, New South is still providing construction services for those same Fortune 500 companies. Whether working with large companies or small, New South always infuses its strong values into each relationship, a practice Doug has instilled into New South’s core values.
Doug has held numerous community and industry leadership positions, both nationally and locally, during his tenure at New South Construction, including serving on the board of the Georgia Branch of the Associated General Contractors (AGC) since 1998. He is a past president of AGC’s Board of Directors, and currently serves on the board of the National Association of General Contractors. He is an active board member for the Atlanta Area Council of Boy Scouts of America, the Cobb County Chamber of Commerce, and is a member of the Atlanta Rotary Club. Over the last several years, Doug has worked to promote the construction industry as a viable career path by supporting construction training programs and job placement of work-ready people through the Construction Education Foundation of Georgia (CEFGA). Still active with CEFGA, Doug is a past president and current advisory board member. He is also on the Clemson University student affairs executive council, where both of his children attended college. Additional recent board positions have included the Georgia Board of Regents’ Facility Advisory Board as well as board positions at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta and Sheltering Arms.
In 2009, Doug was nominated by the Atlanta Chapter of the Professional Estimators Association of America to receive the 18th Golden Hammer Award. He was selected for always holding himself and New South to the highest standards, building in a short period of time one of the most respected companies in the Southeast, and giving his time and talents to the community and industry.
When Doug isn’t in the office, you can find him spending time with his son and daughter, golfing, running, and enjoying the outdoors. Doug attended Auburn University where he obtained his bachelor’s degree in building construction.
Servant Leadership. Uplifting Spirit.
