Simply stated, our mission as a General Contractor is to effectively manage the construction process. Since beginning, Humphries and Company has developed the tools and leadership skills to accomplish that mission, and to create a team environment with open communication.
Our typical processes include:
- Preparation of Cost Estimates & GMP’s
- Preliminary Schedules
- Value Engineering
- Constructability Analysis
- Long Lead Time Identification
- Subcontractor Pre-qualification, Selection & Bidding
- Bid Review, Analysis & Award
- Construction Coordination, Weekly Meetings & Project Documentation
- Job Site Safety Programs
- Quality Assurance
- Punch List Execution & Close Out Documentation
Weekly project meetings are attended by owner’s representatives, the architect/ design team, the subcontractors, the owner’s vendors, and the building management. Each week we review and update specific tools used to track and manage the construction process. The documentation for each meeting is then electronically distributed to all members of the team for follow up.
Our Superintendents walk the job several times a day inspecting the work in progress. Humphries’ Project Managers and Superintendents are in constant communication with the design team and subcontractors to identify and resolve issues before they become a problem. Our focus is to keep the team headed in the same direction and working toward a common goal.
We are committed to quality and believe that constant communication is the way to ensure a “no surprises” experience. We are known for successfully completing the “hard” projects, and strive to earn that reputation with all clients and on every project.
