Here at Skilled Electrical we understand that as a builder you have specific needs and require that certain standards are met from your sub-contractors and electricians.
Below is a list of systems and processes that we have implemented within our company to ensure that we, at bare minimum, meet all your expectations.
Below is a list of systems and processes that we have implemented within our company to ensure that we, at bare minimum, meet all your expectations.
- You require consistent and fair pricing. Pricing which is done in a timely manner, with plenty of clarification as to what the price includes referencing the specifications and plans the tender applies to.
- On occasion, you may require an electrician that can professionally design, build and produce a professional electrical plan.
- You will need an electrical contractor that you can be sure is giving your clients the best advice for their needs and requirements. Your electrician must have a complete group of the latest technology available in the industry, especially with the electrical industry advancing and changing so quickly.
- Your electrician also needs to be advising your clients on how best to future proof their project or build for the potential changes likely to happen in the industry over the next ten years.
- Your electrician must be able to meet your workloads and demands. They should also have the flexibility and diversity to handle various types of projects. It is also crucial that they have the ability to dedicate the initial site manager to the entire project for its lifespan.
- Preferably your electrical contractor should have the scope and specialists to be a ‘one stop shop’ with each area of a project having suitably experienced and skilled staff for each aspect of the electrical build. For example, aircon and ventilation, solar, automation, data and comms, CCTV and security.
- An electrical sub-contractor needs to have cultured and well trained staff who will ensure all work is carried out efficiently and to a high standard. Staff who ensure that your clients are being looked after in a professional manner and that clean up after themselves.
- All changes and variations to a contract are to be communicated efficiently and effectively to you, the builder, and your client.
- All paperwork and administration should be accurate and sent through in a timely manner. Variations and claims are sent through for approval early before they can become an issue.
- Your time-frame needs to be met and you want a sub-contractor that will resource their role in a project to ensure they are not the bottleneck where possible.
- A sub-contractor that recognises the obligation to manage and fix all remedial and warranty issues effectively and efficiently as they arise.
- You want a company that doesn’t have a limited shelf life. A company that has gone through the growing pains and has implemented enough systems and processes to ensure the quality staff onsite have plenty of support and training to ensure they can do a good job. A company that has a long-term and positive future.
- Finally, you probably want a company with a problem-solving attitude. An electrical contractor that just wants to get the job done and will work with you to ensure that it happens.
