Major focus of services: NCP Design/Build Ltd. provides architectural and construction services
for residential and commercial properties. The company specializes in home renovation and
custom home construction.
History of the company: After working for a single- and multifamily construction firm, Clai Porter
and three others started a firm in 1975. In 1978 the partners pursued other interests, and
Porter operated the company as NCP Construction Ltd. Ten years ago the company gained a
new moniker, NCP Design/Build Ltd., describing services it has offered from the start.
Although most projects have been located in Anchorage, NCP Design/Build has completed
projects across the state including work in Homer, St. George and Selawik. The firm also
designed a hangar in Nome and a fishing lodge in Kenai.
"We design 95 percent of what we build," Porter said. NCP Design/Build's trademark is
designing a home addition or renovation that seamlessly blends with the current design.
NCP Design/Build employs 11 full-time workers and hires subcontractors as needed.
Company officials note market trends including home modifications to meet the needs of an
older population, more high-end products for the home and owners of newly built homes
seeking renovations.
Top accomplishment of the company: NCP Design/Build President Porter and his wife, Marilyn
Porter, the company's admin. officer, cited the firm's longevity as one achievement. Persistence,
good employees, subcontractors, suppliers, people and fiscally conservative choices have
contributed to that success, they said. NCP Design/Build also tallies several repeat customers
for home additions or renovations.
Major players: Clai Porter, president, and Marilyn Porter, admin. officer, NCP Design/Build Ltd.
Clai Porter earned a bachelor's degree in architecture from Auburn University in Alabama and a
master's degree in architecture and urban design from Catholic University of America in
Washington, D.C. Marilyn Porter earned a bachelor's degree in sociology from Washington State
University in Pullman and a master's of business administration from Alaska Pacific University.
She is a licensed real estate broker. Their skills complement one another in business, she said.
The Porters came to Alaska in 1972.
