QBT Process
We believe in a system of checks and balances against quality, safety, and communication. We’ve implemented a process where our personnel generate and implement quality control logs for every phase of the project. Logs are completed and signed by our superintendent and distributed to you entire project team. Similarly, we complete safety logs detailing safety observations and trainings available for our onsite crews.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, all of our superintendents are required to complete daily logs documenting weather, manpower, activities, schedule impacts, quality issues, and safety issues. We firmly believe these logs immediately allows for crystal clear planning and communication to take place on a daily basis, thus improving scheduling and reducing inefficiencies and delays.
QBT Safety
The safety of our employees, clients, contractors, and the general public are our top priority. Our pledge to maintaining safe job sites, as well as the quality of our safety training program is an ongoing, uncompromising commitment.
QBT Companies’ Health & Safety Programs comply with the standards set by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), and other federal and state agencies. It includes procedures for safety, as well as the entire spectrum of construction hazards, such as fall protection, confined space entry, trench safety, electrical grounding, and lock-out/tag-out procedures. The entire QBT team is either 30 Hour or 10 Hour OSHA Certified for Construction.
QBT Culture
Our process is only as good as the culture of people who choose to adopt it and uphold its standards. At QBT, we take pride in fostering a culture founded upon the core values of integrity, trust, excellence, and teamwork. We embrace individual growth and continuous improvement. As a result, we have earned the respect of our community, peers, and the respect of our clients who appreciate our expertise, value of on time project completion, and budget adherence.
