Why Gleim?

As an excavating contractor, our team is often tasked with the monumental challenge of moving mountains, quite literally, on a tight and demanding timeline. However, despite the intense pressure and high-stakes nature of our work, we remain steadfastly committed to never losing sight of our paramount duty to protect the environment and maintain a culture of honesty and integrity in all of our partnerships. Safety is unequivocally one of our top priorities, as we firmly believe that all of our hardworking employees deserve to return home safely to their loved ones each and every night, just as they arrived at the job site that morning.

To uphold this unwavering commitment to safety, we have established a certified Safety Committee that convenes monthly to continue learning, innovating, and enhancing safety protocols across every facet of our operations – from the heavy machinery and equipment utilized in the field, to the critical transportation and logistics involved in our trucking operations. Through these dedicated safety meetings, we are able to proactively identify potential hazards, share best practices, and empower our teams with the knowledge and resources needed to work efficiently and securely, no matter the scale or complexity of the project at hand.

By maintaining this relentless focus on safety, we not only safeguard the wellbeing of our employees, but also demonstrate our steadfast dedication to responsible, sustainable excavation practices that minimize environmental impact and preserve the natural landscapes we are entrusted to transform.

Staying on the cutting edge of the latest technology is crucial for our company, as we strive to provide our clients with the highest level of precision and efficiency in our work. By closely monitoring advancements in machine guidance, drone technology, and CAD software, we are able to leverage these powerful tools to elevate the quality and accuracy of our projects from start to finish.

The machine guidance systems we utilize allow us to meticulously verify existing site conditions and topography, ensuring we have a comprehensive, up-to-date understanding of the landscape before commencing construction. This, in turn, enables us to build sites within remarkably tight tolerances, maximizing the precision of our work down to the smallest detail. Furthermore, these advanced technologies give us the ability to double-check our work at every stage, from the initial estimating process through to the final product delivery. By rigorously verifying quantities, dimensions, and other critical factors, we can confidently deliver projects that adhere to the tightest of schedules while providing our clients with a superior site package each and every time.

Staying at the forefront of new technological developments is not just a priority for us – it is a fundamental part of our commitment to excellence and our unwavering drive to exceed our clients’ expectations.

A problem-solver mentality is essential in the construction industry, where unforeseen challenges and obstacles are an inevitable part of the job. This mindset involves approaching each project with a proactive, analytical approach, always seeking to identify potential issues before they arise and having a repertoire of creative solutions ready to implement.

Maintaining clear and frequent communication is an essential aspect of successfully managing any construction project. This open line of communication allows us to keep everyone informed about the ongoing progress of the project, as well as any challenges or obstacles that arise along the way. We make a concerted effort to proactively update the project owners on the status of construction, sharing details about completed milestones, upcoming tasks, and any delays or issues that could impact the timeline. Keeping all personnel in the loop helps ensure everyone is aligned, minimizes confusion or miscommunication, and allows us to quickly adapt to changing circumstances. This proactive, transparent approach helps us maintain strong working relationships, identify and resolve challenges in a timely manner, and ultimately deliver successful project outcomes for our clients
