Value: Our value comes from
our employees and our resources. Our employees are the best
the industry has to offer. They are selected for their attitudes
and their aptitudes. We have a can do attitude and the resources
to make it happen. When a client hires Kirby Construction
Company, Inc. they know they are getting people who care as
much about their project as they do.
All the employees of Kirby Construction Company,
Inc. are local with a foundation in this community. We have
worked among the areas designers, suppliers, building officials
and subcontractors for years. We use our local resources for
information in prequalification of subcontractors. Knowing
we will continue to do business in Sonoma County for years
to come, we treat all business professionals with respect
and receive the same in return. Subcontractors and suppliers
go the extra mile for us because we are doing the same for
them. City officials trust us because we have earned it.
We rely heavily on technology to provide
total project management. We use the Microsoft Office Suite
for standard business formats. Quick Books for CSI based accounting.
Prolog Manager for subcontract, RFI, submittal, and change
order tracking. And Microsoft Projects for scheduling.
Safety: By paying attention
to safety we are paying attention to our surroundings. We
care about our people and we care about our clients. We have
a fully operational safety program managed by a safety coordinator.
This allows us to maintain a pristine safety record as well
as provide for owner requirements. A benefit of our outstanding
safety record is that our insurance costs are low, reducing
overhead.
Quality: The quality and
conformance to plans of installed material is monitored daily.
We only employ qualified supervisors. The continual quality
control by Kirby Construction Company, Inc. reduces replacement
of installed parts and promotes successful inspections, saving
time and money.
Schedule: The project schedule
can be determined by an owner end date or by cost effective
sequencing. When a schedule is determined by the owner’s
end date, we work backwards to determine the necessity for
overtime and expedited freight. When the end date is flexible
we develop the schedule based on an efficient sequence of
operations. A good schedule defines expectations.
The schedule is used as a roadmap through the project. Delivery
and inspection dates are monitored and coordinated with construction
activities. Long lead items are tracked to verify on time
delivery. We understand the value of time.
