On Time, On Budget, No Surprises   Scheduling. A project must be rigidly controlled to ensure the completion date is met. We schedule all our projects on the critical path method. Only when each item of the work is identified can it be controlled. We analyze and report progress on a monthly basis. Variances are identified and deficiencies are corrected. The project is kept on schedule. Estimating and Value Engineering. In all business ventures, the Operating Budget is the cornerstone of management control, so too with the construction project. Each component of the work must be accurately identified, evaluated and budgeted. This is where the experience of the "Can-Do Team" is critical. With the Wade Organization, you will get the combined expertise of the Project Executive, Project Manager and Chief Estimator in establishing and tracking the project budget. The entire team must be ever vigilant to keep the project within budget while the design proceeds. Fast Tracking and Designing While Building. The client must have a high degree of confidence in the contractor – confident that the contractor will be able to make substantial progress while remaining flexible to incorporate design changes as they arise, all the while keeping the project in budgetary control. The ability to pull off this dynamic process comes only with experience – the kind the Wade Organization has demonstrated to our many clients. Only when the whole team – Owner, Architect and Contractor – is confident of the BUDGET and the SCHEDULE can they proceed forward with the project, knowing the DESIGN is being finalized as the project is BUILT. It all comes down to – On Time, On Budget, No Surprises! In-House Capabilities. Wade Construction maintains and on-staff crew of trained craftsmen in several disciplines. Our corporate philosophy to be like the traditional MASTER BUILDER, who has the knowledge and skill to perform the work himself, as opposed to the Construction Broker, so prevalent today, who performs no work himself, but must rely on others. We do recognize the practicalities of the current construction industry environment. We pass on the economies to be realized by subcontracting work to our customers. We will analyze each area of the work to determine whether it can most cost effectively be subcontracted or self-performed. To the end, no determination will be made as to whether we self-perform or subcontract until we can determine which route offers the best value to our customer. Areas of work Wade Construction typical self performs to control the job progress and insure high levels of quality: • Project Management • Clean-up Labor • Estimating • Field Engineering • Scheduling • Rough Carpentry • Supervision • Finish Carpentry Areas of work Wade Construction has the capabilities to self-perform should it be: a) more economical, b) sufficient subcontracting manpower be available, or c) the schedule requirement dictates otherwise: • Lt. Gauge Metal Framing • Acoustic Ceiling • Concrete & Concrete Formwork • Drywall • Structural Steel Erection • Insulation
