Government, Military and Commercial Construction is a riskful industry. It is imperative to manage risk and avoid expensive delays or injuries. Identifying the risk potential before it arises is the best method of risk management, “An ounce of prevention IS worth a pound of cure”.
West Constructors have decades of experience in commercial construction and risk management. Our philosophy is to be safe and prepared. This, along with experience has kept our pitfalls and obstacles to a bare minimum over the past years.
On-Site risk can often be the easiest to identify and control, unfortunately off-site issues are much more difficult to control. Relying on others to complete their duties is a risk within itself, especially when they do not receive directions from our office. These off-site risks can be controlled by using dependable and frequent vendors and sub-contractors.
We have found that familiar faces usually produce familiar results. I diligently try to use the inspectors and tradesmen I have previously used with satisfaction. These individuals understand the high level of quality and respect we provide and expect. They are professionals and we treat them as such, this greatly reduces risk.
Risk is controllable to a certain degree, our experience shows familiarity and repetition works well.
