Features

  • This project included extensive site work with substantial rock removal.
  • Messer was integrated into the project team early and actively participated in owner/designer meetings and lead cost-saving and value engineering efforts during construction.
  • Messer 5S was a key component of our Zero Injury culture utilized on the project. By eliminating slips, trips and falls from poor housekeeping, we can achieve more consistent safety results on all of our projects.​​

  • Flow Scheduling lean technique categorizes the project into similarly-sized areas, determines the best sequence and sets a rhythm to completing those areas. This allows for a faster, quality completion of the project with earlier in-place mock-ups and a safer work environment.
