Fulcrum Associates, Inc.

Fulcrum Associates works at a scale most home contractors never touch: its claimed Procore profile reports 457 projects since July 2022, averaging $3.7 million each. It is an Amherst, New Hampshire construction management and design-build firm working commercial, institutional and other client-sector projects across New England. The Luters run it — Jeffrey Luter as chairman, Daryl Luter as president — and the company describes itself as family-owned and founded in 1989. In May 2026, Business NH Magazine recounted how one of the Luters started as a teen laborer at the firm his father founded that year. By the company's own account it began during the real estate and banking crisis of 1989, consulting for banks holding distressed real estate before moving into regional construction. Its Better Business Bureau page lists construction management, general contracting, commercial contracting, design contracting, project management, building permits and construction estimates, and grades the firm A+. Procore lists design and engineering, construction management and preconstruction bidding across commercial, healthcare, industrial, institutional and residential sectors. The company cites awards from Associated Builders & Contractors of New Hampshire & Vermont and from the HBRANH Sales & Marketing Council, and a 2022 New Hampshire Business Review article credited Fulcrum's Jennifer Bartholomay with managing a project. On Google the firm shows 5 stars from 3 ratings, with one written review, posted in March 2020, calling the work good. With an average Procore project of $3.7 million, this is a firm set up for large managed builds and design-build work, and Procore lists residential among the sectors it covers.
