Title A name given to the resource General Contractor Firm Head Office Location Avenida Marechal Gomes da Costa, Lote 8, 1849-019 Lisboa, Portugal Foundation Date 1932 Closure Date 2008 Profile Any textual data included in the document In 1932 OPCA, Obras Públicas e Cimento Armado S.A. was founded by José Praça, Manuel Godinho and Luís Soares. Although the beginning of the company’s history dates back to 1926, with the construction of several works, such as the Chapel of the La Salette Sanctuary, in Oliveira de Azeméis, it was only in 1931 that its founders opened an office in Porto and only in March of 1932 that the company was officialy founded. In the 1930s, its activity was mainly in the construction of buildings, industrial facilities, factories, bridges and roads and at the end of the decade its activity was extended to the whole national territory, being an example of one of its works at the time the Urbanization of the Forest Park of Monsanto. During the 1940s, OPCA was present in the main Portuguese engineering works, with emphasis on the participation of the Lisbon underground, which became one of the emblematic areas of intervention starred by the company. In the 1950s and 1960s, OPCA continued to increase its experience as a global engineering company, reinforcing its involvement in industrial and hydraulic works and, in the 1970s, also in housing buildings and hospitals. From the 1980s onwards, the company began an upward trajectory, with a focus on diversifying the activity. OPCA consolidated the area of construction, betting on the specialized infrastructures and technical constructions and guaranteeing its presence, still in the construction sector, on geotechnical and engineering foundations. The company also entered on new business areas, through participation in real estate, environment (industrial waste management) and telecommunications (infrastructures). It was also in the 1980s that the process of internationalization of the company began, through its presence in Macao, Angola and Mozambique. OPCA was one of the most prestigious Portuguese companies to work in the engineering, civil construction and public works sector between 1932 and 2008. In 2008 the company joined SOPOL to form Opway.

Title A name given to the resource General Contractor Firm Head Office Location Rua Daciano Baptista Marques, 245, Lake Towers D, Piso 3, 4400-617 Vila Nova Gaia - Portugal Foundation Date 1918 Founded by <a href="http://portugalbuilds.org/items/show/5">José Soares da Costa</a> Profile Any textual data included in the document In 1918, José Soares da Costa founded the company in Rua do Almada, Porto. It began by having only 10 workers, dedicating themselves mainly to the execution of high-quality finishings and fine gold paintings, a technique that José Soares da Costa learned in France. The first commercial registration is from 1925, at the Oporto Commercial Registry Office, under the individual name of the founder. The name of the company changed several times. In 1938 the name changed to "Viúva de José Soares da Costa", in 1944 to "Soares da Costa Lda.", in 1968 to "Sociedade de Construções Soares da Costa, SARL" and in 1988 to "Sociedade de Construções Soares da Costa, SA". At the end of the 20th century, Soares da Costa was already dedicating itself also to the construction sector, concessions and real estate.  It was in the construction, especially with the technology of "cofragem túnel", that the company found the door leading to a continuous growth. In the 1960s Soares da Costa expanded its activity to the whole Portuguese territory and in the early 1980s it began its international expansion, starting with Venezuela and Guinea-Bissau. It is also in the same decade that, by taking advantage of the growth of infrastructures in the country that the European Community announced, the company's activity is extended to the construction of infrastructures. Now the company was widening its spectrum of buildings, including roads, bridges, overpasses, railways, WWTPs, hospitals, schools, office buildings and residential buildings. In 1988, following a change in the internal shareholding, the company went throught a period of greater exposure to the financial market, even so it didn't lose its family character. During the 1980s and 1990s, the Company's international activity diversified and exports grew, being present in Iraq, Macao, Egypt, Guyana, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde and Germany. The Company entered the US market in 1994 with the formation of SDC Contractor Inc. In 2002 a new restructuring took place which led to the creation of the economic group "Soares da Costa, SGPS, SA", replacing "Sociedade de Construções Soares da Costa, SA", which in turn fully owns the four other holding companies, each heading the holdings of the respective business segment. For example, "Soares da Costa Construção, SGPS, SA" has the mission of managing the entire construction business.
