James Diment, over the many years of contractor-client relationships has learned that there is a void for single hat responsibility. It is obvious that the more players, the more avenues for litigation. At Diment we feel that there should be two players; the client and the design build team.
Diment listens to a client's needs, scope, budget and time frame. In plant production, time or interruptions effect production dollars. Diment professionally handles time is of the essence contracts.
We are not architects, engineers or designers that create form or artistry, but builders that design function per the clients request. This is achieved by thorough input from the client's facilities coordinator with all aspects of the manufacturing state as guidelines.
As this firm has been heavily involved with many production facilities, we realize that the placement of equipment with back-up support systems and flow is the top priority. Buildings that house them are secondary, but the marriage of the two are crucial.
With Diment orchestrating a project we take it to a level of war, and attack it as such. Utilizing the C.P.M. schedule to minute areas in the battlefield, which may have many fronts. In doing so, based on time frame, it tells us man loading for hours of operation to achieve the end date for the client.
The critical ingredient to this formula is being able to resolve issues in the field as they arise. Prevent the inevitable problem of Murphy's Law by elimination of the second, third and fourth party involvement. On the spot war room (field office or engineering trailer) discussing the issue and coming up with an amicable solution within hours with no loss of field production. This interface is achieved between the owner and Diment, and no further, as we directly employ up to ninety percent of the team.
The importance of the quality of any facility, being the assembly of all components, can not be stressed enough. Quality equals longevity, which equals less maintenance and repair costs.
