Director's Insight: Director of Construction Services Explains the Value of Attentiveness and Proactivity
Construction observers hold a job title that suggests they have the passive task of keeping a casual eye on construction sites. In reality, that's not the case. Clients don't embark on multi-million dollar projects and then hire someone to keep a casual eye on things—at least, they shouldn't.
Garver's Construction Services Team delivers a type of construction engineering and inspection that values attentiveness and proactivity, evidence of which can be found in this issue's article on Tulsa International Airport. Our team worked around the clock to serve as the client's eyes on the ground so that the contractor's scope, schedule, and budget were on track. Scheduling or budgeting overruns can be detrimental and it's our job to detect the problems that might lead to such things.
At Tulsa International, Petey and Billy knew there was an important balance to maintain between active on-site observation and preparation of project documentation. They know the construction phase is typically the most critical and costly phase of any project, and it's up to them to make sure it's not any more costly than it has to be. They know it takes a high level of commitment from them to see the job done quickly and done right.
Anyone who's ever done business with Garver's Construction Services Team knows we're operating at that high level of commitment no matter the size or type of project it is.
