PCS is the Way Oregon-based Contractor Keeps its Edge
West Coast Contractor's proprietary Project Control System cuts costs, saves time
COOS BAY, Ore., May 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The evolution of the construction industry has brought the need for a higher degree of organization due to the level of complexity that modern construction projects require. Responding to these changing times, West Coast Contractors (www.westcoastcontractors.com) has emerged as an industry leader with its highly efficient proprietary Project Control System, which offers a fail-proof plan that acts as a vital blueprint to any project.
Understanding the human tendency of rushed contractors to cut corners and skip steps in order to finish the job on time, West Coast Contractors prevents itself from making such mistakes and, instead, focuses on planning ahead in order to meet deadlines. Their Project Control System (PCS), first implemented in 1997, led to a 5 percent improvement in the company's profit margin that year and allowed for a competitive edge against its less-than-prepared counterparts.
The unique PCS approach lays out 10 crucial tasks and responsibilities that must be met for each of its projects to ensure that the job is done right. These steps, while sometimes seemingly inherent, are often overlooked by construction companies that are rushing to get started. By laying out an efficient checklist, West Coast Contractors ensures key steps are not left out.
West Coast Contractors customizes its PCS for each project to ensure the clients' individual needs are met. The key to effectiveness of a PCS is the preconstruction planning tasks, particularly in making sure all subcontractors are on the same page.
The PCS is especially important in fast-track construction, which is how many of today's projects are planned with their tighter schedules. West Coast Contractors has used its PCS on a variety of projects, from ocean-whipped marine projects to telecommunication towers in rugged, remote areas.
West Coast Contractors is committed to using its system to bring clients' costs down by effectively organizing tasks to stay on schedule, and the company's long list of successes during the past 50 years is a testament to just that.
