anny Milosavljevic officially formed Danny Milo Corp, dba DMC Enterprises, in 2012, but the Milosavljevic family has been in the general engineering construction business for generations. Danny Milosavljevic (Milosavljevic) is the owner and president of DMC Enterprises, and he learned his trade from his father and grandfather, who started in the grading and excavating business in the 1970s. Milosavljevic started his career in 1996 when he worked with his father in the finish grade business under the name Slobo Construction, Inc. The father and son team grew to a large crew working for well-known developers and home builders in Southern California. During the 2008 downturn and recession, the two men decided to cease operations in favor of other business ventures that offered more potential. They diversified their interests into starting

assisted living and memory care facilities. Additionally, Milosavljevic began buying and selling heavy construction machinery, and he continues that practice today. As the carnage from the 2008 recession began to subside, Milosavljevic decided to resume his passion for the grading and excavating business under the dba of DMC Enterprises in 2012. “We performed production finish grade work from 1996 to 2008 before taking a break to do other things due to the poor economic conditions,” says Milosavljevic. “Today, we offer a long list of earthmoving solutions that include mass, finish and fine grading, as well as erosion control and other excavation and trucking services. Around 70 percent of our business activity is in the grading and excavation sector, with the remaining 30 percent being primarily in demolition.” Danny Milosavljevic is the sole owner and president of DMC Enterprises, and his multi-service

company is specifically designed to facilitate various phases of construction on land development projects. “We take on grading projects from a few thousand cubic yards to a couple hundred thousand,” says Milosavljevic. “We started back in 2012 with a five-to-six-year grading contract out at the Summerly housing project in Lake Elsinore for McMillin Communities. The interesting thing about this wonderful opportunity was that my dad and grandfather got their start in the 70s working for McMillin. Corky McMillin was the founder, and it was his nephew, Lance Leninger (VP, Construction Manager at McMillin Commercial), that provided us with this chance to get back into the bigger mass grading projects.” DMC Enterprises’ (DMC) work at the Summerly community in Lake Elsinore was divided into 75 lot tracts, and DMC provided the mass and fine grading on ten of those sections or 750 lots. DMC also performed all of the main
