The Value of Preconstruction
Pivot gets its projects right the first time around. It's a process that starts with preconstruction - a systematic and disciplined method of optimising every aspect of construction before work begins. We identify the challenges a project presents - whether in cost, design, schedule or methods - and we solve those challenges in advance. Sometimes it's figuring out the fastest way to get from A to B; sometimes it's a case of inventing a way to build something that's never been done before. Whatever the challenge, our preconstruction process maximises efficiency and eliminates surprises.
The Value of C3 Documents: Complete; Coordinated; Constructible
Construction documents that are C3 (complete; coordinated; constructible) eliminate redesign, avoid disruption and deliver all programme and design priorities. Our in-house specialists work together with members of our field teams (the people who pour concrete and install systems) to identify and avoid pitfalls. We apply the lessons learned from hundreds of past projects - mechanical, electrical and structural - and we make sure that every single document meets the C3 standard before the physical work begins.
The Value of Accurate Budgeting
For owners to maximise the value of their construction money, they need accurate and realistic budget estimates. Rather than relying on estimates from subcontractors, Pivot does its budgeting in-house with a team of architects, structural specialists and mechanical and electrical engineers. As we're a hands-on contractor who regularly performs concrete, mechanical and electrical work, our estimates really do reflect what it takes to do the job right - which gives owners the budgeting information they need to make critical decisions.
The Value of Safety
At Pivot, safety is more than a list of policies and procedures. It's a culture that underpins everything we do. Our safety programme integrates a compliance-driven approach with mentoring and coaching for everyone from management to craft workers. It's an approach that delivers more than our industry-leading safety record: it also protects owners' investments through increased productivity and lower costs.
