Housing Developments

Having worked with leading housing developers over the years, MACGCG have seen the changing requirements to today’s very high standard of site presentation, appearance of work and Health and Safety requirements.

We recognise that all these things are required and must be delivered to the highest standard, hopefully leading to NHBC Pride in The Job Awards.

Commercial Consultancy

Our team have seen lots of money wasted due to bad planning, bad workmanship and bad attitudes! We have found that implementing simple processes can change the way a situation is viewed and positively affect the project outcome.

For example, using twice the allocated amount of concrete and 6F5 when laying kerbs results in the likelihood of more muck away not allowed for, resulting in 3 losses no gains. This example is one of many of how our commercial consultancy can aid your business.

PDCA = Plan – Do – Check – Act

Paperwork on its own is not a good performance measure. In our experience, visual observations having pro-active monitoring rather than reactive responding will always be more cost effective and efficient.
