Phaze Concrete, Excelling on the Construction Site and Always Ready for the Next Phase



Hildale, Utah - June 21, 2017 - (Newswire.com)

In 2003, a small concrete laying company was just starting out, pouring driveways and performing jobs on residential properties in Nevada and Utah.

Since then, though, Phaze Concrete’s value has grown considerably. How considerably, you might ask? They’re now worth over $43 million; they employ 250 employees; they’ve got offices in Hildale, Utah, Denver and Oklahoma City; and they’ve been making some forward-thinking moves which are unprecedented in the industry, both on and off the construction site.

In terms of their working methods, they’re regarded as one of — if not, the — best concrete laying companies in the nation when it comes to flatwork. “We have four laser screeds and a wide array of equipment,” Paul Beagley (the company’s Chief Operating Officer) recently said during an interview.

In fact, thanks in part to their successful implementation of efficiency-based construction techniques, as well as their emphasis on maintaining a high morale among employees, they’re now managing to lay up to a million square feet of flatwork every two months. They not only allow, but actively encourage, their trained professionals to use their best judgment on the job, so that the time it takes to perform certain processes can be cut significantly by applying creative solutions.

“Once we get specs or requirements for an owner, our job is to excel above their expectations without adding excessive cost,” said Beagley, adding that it makes more sense to do a job correctly the first time than having to spend money and resources retrospectively correcting errors later.

It’s not just the techniques they’re using to improve customer satisfaction that’s allowed Phaze to enjoy such a positive reputation within the industry, though; they’re also using profits to provide perks for staff that very few other construction businesses are able to offer.

Among these is a GED Readiness program which they make open not just to apprentices, but also to family members of apprentices. “We don't want our employees simply to come to work and earn a paycheck and go home; we want them to come and have a valuable experience, learning transferable skills that can improve every aspect of their life,” said a company representative during a recent discussion about the initiative.

The positive results of the enterprise are immediately apparent. The company frequently completes jobs under budget, and well before their allotted deadline. “Doing the right thing has been an important value for the Phaze team, often going the extra mile to make sure customers get what they expected and have an active involvement with solutions to the daily challenges and hurdles of today's construction industry. Our crews work hard as a team to keep commitments and schedules while traveling across the nation to deliver the quality the industry has come to expect from us.”

Such a successful track record is bound to bring with it more opportunities for growth, as was the case when they were enlisted to help construct the Family Dollar Distribution Center, covering an area of well over one million square feet. Their exceptional approach to flatwork and tilt-up concrete during this project gained them further recognition, too, in form of the ACI Intermountain Chapter Award of Excellence.

Additionally, thanks to the new President’s pledge to stimulate the growth of business and infrastructure, it’s very likely that the requirement for construction work is going to boom exponentially over the next four years. Phaze is devoting itself to preemptively creating the resources which can be utilized when this happens.

In fact, last year, the company partnered with the Department of Labor's Department of Apprenticeships to put together an innovative prospect for young workers seeking on-the-job training; this will comprise everything from theoretical class-based learning modules to practical training and instruction from one of their seasoned industry experts.

The scale of the program is equally impressive, with Phaze constituting just one of 37,000 different sponsors. Currently, they have seen 26 cement mason apprentices enroll in the venture, and the company has spoken explicitly about the pride they take in the fact that the Department of Apprentice’s program isn’t merely a forced “union organization benefit.”

Phaze’s mantra is that, where they can, they will support their employees in gaining knowledge at work that will not only help them in their future careers, but also in their day-to-day lives. And with the positive tangible results they’ve been getting, it’s clear that the business will continue to grow in the coming years.
