The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best structural steel fabrication companies in Minnesota”
2“Who supplies custom structural steel building frames in Minnesota”
3“I need a Minnesota structural steel fabrication partner for a mid-rise commercial project, who should I talk to”
4“Top structural steel fabrication suppliers in Minnesota for general contractor buyers”
5“Which Minnesota structural steel fabricators can handle large welded assemblies with certified field erection support”
6“List 20 structural steel fabrication companies in Minnesota with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
