The proper building of a complex custom home is an intense process of communicating, data gathering, study, and implementation by the builder. Great Northern Homes takes a "hands on" approach to every building project, pursuing details, anticipating and solving problems before they happen. We are a well-organized company with strong systems and procedures using a team approach to project management.
At Great Northern Homes we utilize the latest in construction project management software, which provides our clients with detailed project accountability, scheduling and communications.
Great Northern Homes takes pride in our meticulous project management system. One that insists on a collaborative approach with clear and frequent communication and supporting documentation. We believe that these factors are the basis for a smooth and ultimately enjoyable construction process for our client and the members of our team.
- We employ extensive use of both office and job site email and fax communication.
- Our project leaders daily use of digital cameras and cellular phones support our collaborative approach.
- We use web-based project collaboration software for file sharing, progress and record photo distribution and archiving, project scheduling and helpful project discussion bulletin boards.
As many of our clients are absent during the construction process, we have developed proven methods of communication to keep our clients informed and up to date on the progress of their project. The Client Login-in area of our web site allows you complete accessibility to your project for up-to-date progress.
We believe you have the right to know where your money is going throughout the project. Our accounting software is one of the most comprehensive and easy to understand financial reporting systems in the industry. Your monthly summary report gives you all the costs, including estimates, changes orders and expenditures to date in an easy to understand format.
At Great Northern Homes we set up and live by a predetermined schedule to complete your home. We work with you to establish a realistic timetable. Years of experience have taught us how to manage our time efficiently, and we are grateful for the continued loyalty of our subcontractors. When many find it difficult to find quality craftsman available to work on their jobs, our devoted trades people provide us with exemplary service so that our schedule and quality is not compromised. This team approach, coupled with our commitment to meticulously overseeing each building stage leads to a tight schedule which we endeavor to meet or beat at every juncture.
