"Craig is the right leader for Servicon's next chapter," said Michael Mahdesian, Chairman of the Board. "He brings a rare combination of deep operational expertise, a track record of disciplined growth, and a genuine respect for the people who do the work. Our family built Servicon on the principle that success and stewardship are inseparable, and Craig embodies that same philosophy."
Honig's appointment comes as Servicon continues to invest in its workforce, deepen its presence with leading integrated facilities management partners, and grow its work in healthcare and aerospace. The company's strategy is anchored by its industry-leading workforce culture, its sustainability and ESG leadership, and a portfolio of innovation partnerships spanning robotics, AI-enabled disinfection, and indoor air quality.

"For more than 50 years, this team has built something rare: a values-driven, family-rooted company that competes and wins at the highest levels of healthcare, aerospace, and mission-critical work. I am honored to join the Mahdesian family, the board, and the entire Servicon team to build on that legacy. My focus from day one will be the same as theirs has always been. Take care of our people, take care of our clients, and let outcomes speak for themselves."
