Initiating
SDC Services owners and project owners work side by side at every part of the process. We feel it’s important that leadership is always collaborating with project teams in the early stages of procurement, completing detailed contract reviews with our team’s specialists, proactive process and schedule management and throughout the duration of the project and detailed commissioning and turnover.
Planning
We create a formula for success that works for our clients and their priorities for their projects. We have refined our project management process and keep our clients updated at every stage of our work; the bottom line is we all need to focus on critical path schedules and budgets to keep business rolling smoothly. We know time is money, so we take extra care in the planning phase to meet our client’s needs.
Execution
How do we help each client and job consistently yet evenly? Simple; we develop project specific execution plans for each and every project. We always offer a plan that is flexible enough to see them through the changing winds of tomorrow and yet sturdy enough to weather current challenges in the construction industry. Our work isn’t always easy. Unexpected elements can affect the project timelines and bottoms lines. When this happens; we don’t offer an easy answer; we find the best answer for everyone involved we work through all challenges until the issues become opportunities. We work hard to minimize risk throughout the project but know how to handle the unexpected.
Monitoring & Controlling
Our work is ahead of the curve and helps projects to stand the test of time. How? First, we assemble the right team; the experts who know your project type and who can understand the project scope. Then we ensure that our team is qualified for the work are dedicated to the client every step of the way. All of the projects that we support are executed by professionals and our executive management. Each and every project has a senior person appointed to oversee the project start to finish. Safety is at the forefront of all we do. A commitment to safety and the environment are the pinnacles of our values.
Closing
Quality and consistency are key to our leadership approach. Every file we have from estimating to order is subjected to rigorous project and quality management systems – there are no exceptions. We have perfected our process and stepped up our game over the years, and we don’t just talk the talk about our work! We walk the walk with our customers and we back our claims to our designs and our quality work.
We consistently look at new ways to reduce our environmental footprint because it’s not enough to say we’re about the environment.
