To ensure that 91Ӱ Constructions delivers on its promise to all stakeholders - clients, employees, the community, its service providers, suppliers and subcontractors and its shareholders - the company has developed a Business Management System (“BMS”) that complies with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001.
The BMS is accessible to all employees via the Internet and is available for inspection and review by clients wishing to conduct due diligence. The BMS provides a framework for the continual review and improvement of 91Ӱ’s processes with continuous improvement of the business being a key objective.
The starting point for the BMS is the company’s mission statement which forms the foundation of its quality policy. Policies have been developed in relation to all key areas of the company’s operation setting out 91Ӱ’s objectives and aspirations and how they are to be achieved. These are supported by formalised processes, toolkits and pro-forma documentation to ensure that quality, in its widest sense, is delivered.
91Ӱ acknowledges that appropriate policies and processes in relation to quality, OH&S, the environment, industrial relations and training are of fundamental importance in today’s construction industry and essential to the ongoing success of its business.
WHO WE ARE
Systems
Business Management System
Aconex
At 91Ӱ we utilise Aconex across all of our projects. Aconex is a web based multi-tenanted collaboration platform that provides a safe and secure repository for information relating to all our projects. Aconex allows 91Ӱ and our clients, consultants and subcontractors to access information from anywhere through a secure, controlled and audited environment.
We have also implemented Aconex Field across our projects. Aconex Field is a secure, cloud-based mobile and web application that allows our project teams to efficiently manage the inspection process that occurs as projects enter the completion and handover phases. It captures, distributes and tracks defects and other issues in real time - faster and more accurately than traditional systems. 91Ӱ Constructions helped develop this application.
