Safety at Lewis is much more than a department: it's a core value. We believe that every accident is preventable and are committed to a zero incident workplace, where all workers return home unharmed to their friends and family at the end of each day. Our safety culture is embodied at every level of the organization, from apprentice carpenter to CEO. At Lewis, safety is not a department. It is not an individual. It is not a field issue. Every one of us is personally accountable for protecting ourselves and our colleagues from harm, and mutually committed to safe execution.
At Lewis, we constantly challenge the status quo. Our collaborative, entrepreneurial culture promotes innovation in every aspect of our business. Company leaders promote continuous improvement by fostering a culture of empowerment and rewarding innovation. Most innovations are employee-initiated, by those who are closest to the work and in the best position to identify opportunities for improvement. Lewis Lean stems from our vision to provide construction services of exceptional value for our clients.
Lewis approaches every project with a laser focus on helping our clients achieve their goals. We do this through savvy preconstruction teamwork, effective use of Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) tools and meticulous construction management practices. We meet or beat schedule targets through expert scheduling, empowered jobsite teams, and a united safety culture-all the while upholding the highest standards for quality. During preconstruction, Lewis strives to eliminate surprises, meet the design intent without compromise, apply innovations and lessons learned to improve project outcomes and provide reliable, accurate budgets, early in the process.
