ZERO LOST-TIME RECORDABLE INJURIES

SINCE 2015

Experience Modification Rate (EMR) substantially impacts a construction company. Insurance companies use this number to gauge the past cost of injuries and future chances of risk. The lower the EMR, the lower the worker compensation insurance premiums, which benefits the client in the form of reduced cost. JTM has an EMR of 0.60, which is significantly lower than the industry average. We have maintained an EMR of less than 1.0, which is the industry average.

CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY

BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM) FOR SEAMLESS PROJECT COORDINATION

At JTM Construction, we use Building Information Modeling (BIM) to improve coordination, reduce conflicts, and streamline project delivery. By integrating 3D models early, we identify issues before they become costly, enhance system integration, and optimize scheduling. The result is a more efficient, collaborative process that improves cost control and building performance.

VIRTUAL DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION (VDC) FOR OPTIMIZED PLANNING

We leverage Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) to improve planning, coordination, and execution. By integrating digital models with construction workflows, we optimize logistics, detect clashes early, and enhance schedule and cost efficiency. Our in-house scanning and visualization tools provide real-time insight, reduce risk, and drive better project outcomes.

IN-HOUSE SCANNING & SURVEY CAPABILITIES FOR UNMATCHED ACCURACY

Our in-house scanning and survey capabilities deliver precise, realtime data to support accurate planning and execution. Using 3D laser scanning, we capture detailed as-built conditions to align with BIM and VDC workflows—enabling early clash detection, accurate site verification, and improved trade coordination. This reduces rework, minimizes delays, and ensures efficient, high-quality project delivery.

SMALL AND DISADVANTAGED FIRM OUTREACH PLAN
