We Build Value.
Construction value and efficiency translate directly to the bottom line. Waterman Construction practices a systems approach to planning, design, scheduling and controlling construction. Applying production methods from process industries and organizational efficiency from the military, we refine each construction phase into definable work packages. Proven project management tools are leveraged with best practices to optimize production. Each project feature is studied to identify opportunities for value engineering improvements to reduce Owner costs. Waterman Construction is agile and responsive, operating efficiently with competitive overhead, consistently providing exceptional value for your project budget.
Waterman Construction delivers engineered construction.
Few small construction firms possess our technical knowledge and skills. Beyond the technical advantage, we apply disciplined business methodologies and processes to all aspects of program and project management. Waterman Construction adds value for clients by building sustainability, accessibility, maintainability and security into every project. We are LEED® and Green Globe trained advocates of energy efficiency and have the requisite expertise and experience to ensure design and construction complies with applicable building codes, life safety requirements, and industry standards. We can actively orchestrate all aspects of the work to assure quality, cost stability, timely completion, and smooth project turn-over.
Timely project delivery of client service and work product is fundamental to Waterman Construction’s corporate philosophy and culture. Quality is a continuous process involving constant focus and attention. Our quality program is interwoven with our work practices and fully integrated within our business organization. For us, quality and business processes flow through parallel management paths to ensure consistency and continuity. Lessons learned will be documented to provide immediate corrective actions as well as ‘after-action’ closeout reviews of each major task activity.
We Build Trust.
We work hard to foster and maintain sound working relationships with our clients, and are committed to earning and building trust. Total commitment to the successful delivery of your project is our driving focus. The increasing complexity of today’s construction demands project management competencies addressing the wide variety of technical, managerial, financial and community challenges integral to successful project delivery. Our client-centric approach ensures every project receives full attention and that clients are treated with the highest personal regard and consideration. Waterman Construction is committed to the successful outcome of every project we undertake - constructed quality at fair cost. We deliver:
Direct involvement and oversight from company principals on every project
Responsive and timely Owner communications and support
Strict adherence to cost and schedule requirements
Guaranteed quality product
Compliance with environmental and industry standards
Highly qualified support
“Waterman Construction always worked well with our county staff and the project architect, especially in performing our requested modifications. The entire building process met our high expectations for the project.”
We Build Success.
Successful project delivery results from broad experiences in collaborative facilities design, knowledgeable field operations, efficient contract administration, and effective communications with the entire project team. Our combined key staff have over 100 years’ experience in the design-build industry. Our background includes mastery of planning, design, and pre-construction activities integrated with detailed understanding of our clients’ requirements on each and every project. Waterman Construction provides skills, experience and qualifications generally only available from large firms burdened with costly overhead. We begin each project with a deliberate process of early problem identification and solution. We leverage experience and judgment in anticipating and assessing project risk, resolving issues early to minimize impacts.
“Waterman Construction has provided their services for some of our most publicly visible projects. They have excelled while working under critical deadlines, in complex projects and politically charged projects. They have provided the resources, experience and expertise to successfully complete our request on every occasion.”
We Build the Future.
We are committed to our community and to our families. We live here and we build here. Waterman Construction specializes in governmental and commercial projects, with primary focus on educational facilities, including ground-up new construction and major modernization renovations.
Be Smart - Be Safe
Our motto “Be smart/Be safe” is the theme of our safety program emphasizing safety in every construction phase. We believe all safety incidents are preventable and safety is reinforced with basic training and continual emphasis. We set stringent standards for safety practices including training and evaluation programs to improve performance and strengthen employee and sub-contractor awareness.
