The Nash Project Approach
William R. Nash utilizes a uniform technique of Project Management with proven effectiveness in controlling the three factors vital to a successful project. The basic elements of this process are constant monitoring of: expended costs and manpower productivity against estimated values, schedule management, and the quality of our workmanship. In addition, we have invested in Best-in-Class software tools to help us control productivity, schedules, and construction budgets on all of our projects. Our project managers are trained on using these tools and we follow a disciplined approach whereby our team meets with senior executives on a regular basis to review project status ensuring a successful project outcome.
Project Coordination
At contract award, Nash’s Project Manager will meet with the client representative to review the scope of work and develop the project coordination procedures. These procedures define items such as document distribution, the frequency of coordination meetings, and establish the lines of communication required for the project. The Project Manager is responsible for handling all financial and contractual matters, purchasing, expediting and scheduling construction. In the performance of these duties, the Project Manager may elect to delegate certain functions to specific departments; i.e. engineering, prefabrication, estimating, and/or purchasing but still maintains overall responsibility for the project. The Project Manager remains with each project from inception to completion; providing maximum focus throughout the design and construction of each facility.
Project Team Approach
Nash’s Project Management process includes the establishment of a team to suit the complexity of each project. The roles included within the Project Management Team are purchasing, accounting, cost analysis, planning, scheduling, and construction. Each team member is a specialist and well versed within their discipline. A group of seasoned and experienced personnel is made available to the project for its entire duration.
Safety At Nash
William R. Nash is dedicated to addressing the obstacles posed by the constantly evolving construction landscape through a strong focus on safety. Safety is of paramount importance to us. Acknowledging that our employees are our greatest asset, we employ a “Lessons Learned” strategy, sharing information with our team to consistently enhance our performance. Our objective is to minimize accidents, injuries, and overall risk. Our team is fully committed to meeting deadlines without any accidents, while continuously improving our exceptional safety track record.
Safety training is a vital component of our commitment to safety, encompassing various training sessions throughout the year. New employees are obligated to undergo a comprehensive day of safety training before gaining access to any of Nash’s job sites. Furthermore, we provide timely and OSHA-compliant training opportunities to all employees. These include courses such as OSHA 10/30 hours, Competent Person Certifications, and Lift Certifications (including Aerial, Scissor, Forklift, etc.). We prioritize safety and well-being through rigorous inspections, effective training programs, open communication, and diligent follow-up procedures. This holistic approach has fostered a strong partnership between our safety department and field leaders. Our field leaders fully embrace their responsibility in ensuring the safety of our project teams and regularly contribute valuable insights to our safety initiatives..
Project Site Operations
The approach that has shown the greatest success within The Nash organization is what we refer to as our Stand-Alone policy. This method involves forming a dedicated management team that is tailor-made to meet the unique requirements of each project. Nash’s Project Manager and Project Superintendent collaborate to develop a comprehensive plan and schedule for the job. Through careful planning, they establish the order of tasks and determine the necessary tools, equipment, materials, and labor needed to execute the project efficiently and effectively. Once the project has been set in motion, the process of scheduling begins. Scheduling involves transforming the project plans into a well-structured timetable. When the schedule is finalized, it becomes easier to assess the impact of any changes that may arise and make informed decisions accordingly. It is crucial to regularly update the schedule on a monthly basis to accurately determine the status of the project and analyze the future requirements for manpower and equipment. The key to successfully executing a construction project lies in the ability to secure highly experienced supervisors and skilled workers who can effectively meet the demands outlined in the schedule. The process of assessing, recruiting, instructing, and inspiring our staff is equally significant as the process of strategizing and organizing. In the beginning, we acquire project personnel based on the recommendations made by our Superintendent and Foreman. Furthermore, we actively seek out additional team members through local job fairs, referrals from existing staff, and advertising.
Nash’s involvement and concern with each awarded project remains constant. We stand by our capabilities of successfully executing our client’s vision.
