The 6Cs
There are six core business drivers that underpin everything we do at VolkerFitzpatrick – the 6Cs. From our offices to our construction sites, everyone is guided by these drivers to help us deliver quality projects that we can all be proud of. Discover each of the 6Cs below.
Care for our people and projects
At VolkerFitzpatrick, employees are empowered to take responsibility for creating a better and safer environment and identifying more sustainable ways of working. We’re creating an inclusive culture that values diversity and nurtures long-lasting relationships both inside and outside of the company. We want everyone to thrive and feel confident in their roles.
Campaign against defects
Short term gains amount to nothing if they harm the end goal. Our teams are trained to think holistically and deliver long-lasting solutions that avoid timely and costly rework. By embracing a culture of accountability and promoting the sharing of lessons learned, each project builds on the successes and insights of the last.
Certainty of programme
It’s everyone’s responsibility to maintain a project’s programme. We have robust processes to keep office and site teams laser-focused on hitting crucial milestones, all the while maintaining safety standards and a close eye on budgets. It’s why our clients continue to entrust us with project after project.
Cost awareness
We believe that each individual has a role to play in driving cost efficiency. By empowering everyone to think critically about expenditure, we can deliver greater value to our clients. Together, we can make smart, informed decisions that strengthen our margins while maintaining quality and excellence.
Challenge yourself and others
Our team is dedicated to continually improving their individual performance, empowering those around us, and making a difference industry wide. We foster an environment that thrives on collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to excellence. By setting ambitious goals and supporting each other every step of the way, we create a culture where growth and success are shared achievements.
Communicate effectively
Effective communication is the cornerstone of building strong, lasting relationships and successful projects. Whether it’s cultivating teamwork between colleagues or working closely with our clients, clear and open communication ensures that everyone is aligned and working towards a common goal.
