Texas Heavy-Highway Electrical Construction
About
Established in January 2000 as a telecommunications infrastructure contractor, The Levy Company’s primary line of work was initially in support of telecommunications providers expanding DSL coverage in their markets. We used our skill in providing electrical contracting support for the large-scale production of vaults and shelters to meet the demands of emerging technologies.
In the fall of 2001, as the natural next step in our growth strategy, we ventured into the areas we knew best: highway signage, lighting, traffic signal, and traffic management construction and maintenance. The Levy Company successfully prequalified with TxDOT and began bidding and securing work. In 2018, The Levy Company further expanded, adding a commercial electrical division.
What began as a company of four has grown to a company with more than 200 employees within the San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi, and Rio Grande Valley areas, with work throughout south and central Texas. In an industry where changes are frequent, The Levy Company remains a constant quality contractor.
Meet Our Founders
Harry H. Levy, IV
After spending 23 years in the electrical industry working as an apprentice, journeyman, and master electrician, along with project management and estimating duties at several contractors in Texas, Harry decided to try his hand at his own business. He founded The Levy Company, LP in 2000 and has been working at building the company ever since.
John T. West
John has spent over 30 years in the electrical industry. After acting as a foreman at Hansen Electric Company from 1979-1982, John became a superintendent for Loyd Electric, where he was responsible for direct supervision of company job site personnel on commercial and industrial electrical projects. After the sale of Loyd Electric to Mica Corporation, John became Mica’s superintendent for their new Houston division. John managed and supervised large highway computerized traffic management systems, along with highway lighting and sign projects. In 1997, John left Mica for an opportunity with Traffic Control Devices of Texas as a supervisor. He was responsible for large-scale electronic installations on traffic management projects for the Texas Department of Transportation. In 2000, Harry came to John with the opportunity to create The Levy Company, LP.

Announcement January 2025
The Levy Company has been acquired by Traffic Management Solutions (TMS), a highly respected and successful transportation market specialty contractor based in Florida. We expect this strategic partnership to allow us to better serve our customers by leveraging the combined strengths of both companies.
Founded in 2013, TMS has sought the best and brightest to join their team. TMS prides itself on its superior experience and knowhow that has enabled them to provide innovative solutions to even the most difficult projects.
Like TMS, since The Levy Company’s inception twenty-five years ago, the people and the reputation for quality has made the company who it is. The core values of today—compassion for one another, integrity in all we do, safety in our work, exceptional quality, and a strong work ethic—will remain the company’s guiding principles under TMS.
The company name has been updated slightly, changing from The Levy Company, Inc. to The Levy Company, LLC. Our customers and business associates can expect existing services, contracts, and points of contact to remain largely unchanged. We continue to operate from our current offices, and our customers and business associates will continue to work with the same trusted Levy contacts.
We are grateful for all our business relationships and look forward to the future and the opportunities this acquisition brings for all of us.
