E9 McHugh Excavating proud of core values

Dean McHugh from McHugh excavating what are you most proud of. What do you think of McHugh excavating.Well I'm proud that this company that my dad started out of the basement of our house when I was 10 years old is still around after 42 years. Lot of people that we've helped over the years with their projects and with their problems there's people some water problems right now and sometimes it's just a little bit of grating in the backyard to get that to go away and sometimes it's not quite so simple and to think be more of a complex issue and I'm proud of helping those people. Probably most importantly I'm proud of all the good paying jobs and all the people that I've been able to support families working here.Q Over the years keep things local that's that's fantastic. Dean Mikir from ACU excavating. I know that any Web site it says innovative construction solutions of 1976 which is like you said 42 years ago when your father started the company. And what I like about your website is you've actually got a page that's got your core values on there. How often do you see an excavating company with their core values listed right on their website.Well the core values are something we really believe in by about four or five years ago sat through a seminar on our guys talked about the Ritz Carlton you know that I don't stay there and few do. But we all know what the Ritz Carlton is and we know what their reputation services. And he talked about how they use core values to make sure everybody in the company is always thinking like they want their reputation to be. And we felt at that time that our company demonstrated a lot of the things that a customer would like to see or an employee would like to see in a company. But after listening to that fellow give that seminar we realized we get these things out on paper and so we had several management meetings and that came up with what we thought were the 13 most important values to our company. We define them. We came up with examples of them and we take time every week. Every Monday morning we have a 15 minute conference call that everybody in the company is on and we ROTY through the 13 works out well because at four times in a 52 week year but we rotate through those core values and we have the column Tuesday and the values there and we discuss we're being fair means improving the customer being fair to your fellow employees. We have guys that chime in from all on the job sites and the example they've seen in the last week of what being fair is and like you said there's 13 of them and there is just one of them. But we feel having that reminder and talking about that for 10 to 15 minutes every week keeps that top of mind and keeps everybody in the company from top to bottom hopefully they're producing and acting out what we want to be as a company.
