projects on time and within budget.
Additionally,
we are continually investigating new technologies
and training programs that will improve our operations
such as:
- Development,
implementation and administration of a total
quality assurance program to ensure our customers
(residents and visitors) of quality construction
materials and practices, and to ensure a high
level of confidence in test results reported
by laboratories performing materials testing
on Pinellas County projects.
- Investigating
the possibility of using handheld computers
to provide state of the art equipment and training
to improve record keeping efficiency and pay
