About Us


SMC started as small outside plant contractor to Bell Atlantic in 1982. It quickly expanded its offerings to include the construction of power distribution systems and turn-key inside plant structured cabling solutions. SMC has a history of delivering on time and within the contracted amount for telecommunications, utility, government and general contractor construction projects. 

SMC is headquartered in Tracy’s Landing, Maryland with branch offices in Waldorf and Hollywood, Maryland. The headquarters is situated on over 6 acres comprised of administrative buildings, storage and materials warehousing, and mechanical shops for maintenance and repair of company vehicles and equipment. SMC owns the cars, vans, equipment trucks, aerial trucks, dump trucks, trailers, directional bore drills, backhoes, splicing tents, tools and other equipment necessary to perform outside and inside plant construction as well as electrical contracting.

In 2003, SMC was purchased by Argan, Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary. Headquartered in Rockville, Maryland, Argan (AMEX: AGX) provides SMC with strong financial backing and financial reporting discipline that comes with being a publicly traded company.
