The Benefits of Partnerships

In times like these, everyone needs more partners.

Most people know that it’s hard to accomplish anything without having partners. We all understand that we need friends, families, communities, and coworkers to help us along. In times of great uncertainty, like now, it’s much easier to manage with a little help from our friends. A group of people, who are working together and who have the goal of making things better, can achieve anything.

That is one reason I am so pleased to be a part of the Wells family and the larger family of the construction industry. We all get to literally build our communities. Along the way, we have the chance to create relationships with the many companies and trades that are required to build a building. Different companies and individuals pull together to build something larger than themselves.

Starting almost 10 years ago, Wells Concrete helped establish a group of like-minded companies from around the country who committed to share their best practices to grow and improve.  As with any great, longer-term, business relationship, stronger individual relationships and opportunities developed out of this association.  That has led to new opportunities for Wells and for you, our customer.

A perfect example of this is represented in the announcement we made this past June regarding the partnership between Wells Concrete and Clark Pacific to form the Facades Consortium Group, LLC and launched our new product Infinite Facade.  A prefabricated building exterior product that improves quality, reduces risk, substantially reduces schedule, and creates budget certainty through our Target Value Design Process.

We believe that our clients will also benefit from the close partnership of Wells Concrete and Clark Pacific. There are many individuals within our two companies whose sole responsibility is to collaborate on research and development, new innovations, and new product development.  Wells and Clark Pacific are also partnering with other key companies from around the country for the continuing development and execution of our Infinite Facade product. We know that we are ultimately providing safer, faster, and higher quality building exteriors for you. Additionally, we know these efforts will also result in many other future improvements in the construction industry.

In conclusion, when you think of Wells, we certainly hope you think of us as people that you want to partner with. Wells is committed to finding better and new ways of doing things that benefit our clients.

We hope you can get through these times with a little help from your friends at Wells; we can build our way out of difficult and uncertain days, together.

Feel free to contact us for more information or to discuss our ongoing improvement plans and partnerships.
