Delivering Quality
Since 1984, we have dedicated ourselves to delivering high-quality structures that exceed client requirements and expectations. From inception, to long after completion, the concept of quality will remain a constant throughout the lifecycle of your project. We also have the unparalleled expertise of our dedicated in-house quality control director, ensuring our customers the highest level of compliance with industry quality standards.
Quality is an integral part of our process at Contract Construction. We’ve developed a reputable Quality Management Program that ensures compliance with all contractual specifications, mandatory regulations, and quality standards at every phase of your project. Through our many years of experience, we’ve found that implementing a solid quality management plan provides a host of benefits for both contractor and client. A few of the advantages are:
Provides high-quality results.
Eliminates defects and rework (Built Right, the First Time).
Reduces accidents and improves safety.
Projects completed on time and within budget.
Construction that meets standards set by the client and regulatory agencies.
Ensures the facility fulfills its intended purpose.
Promotes a collaborative environment.
Extends the lifecycle of structures and reduces unexpected maintenance.
Better documentation clarifies expectations and minimizes surprises.
Our three-phase quality control process:
