Our Team

The Quartz Team

With only a few exceptions the majority of our office-based staff have worked together for many years. This has enabled the company to carefully nurture and fine tune the strengths of the individual to form what is now regarded as one of the most experienced and skilled management teams in the area.

Each department engineer has not only the support of his colleagues in the other sections and the backup of his line manager and engineering director, but also a similar sized structure to call upon if needed in our other regional office. We recognise the needs and demands placed upon our office based engineering support and as such have one of the lowest ratios of engineer to operative. Not only does this enable us to respond more rapidly to client requests but also to enhance site productivity and efficiency.

Similar to our office staff, we have worked for many years with our site-based operatives, recognising their strengths and weaknesses and accordingly placing their varied skills to the best advantage. The company’s policy of finding the work to match the labour force, rather than the usual “hire and fire” tactics of the industry, has resulted in a more loyal and stable workforce. In turn this gives the client the comfort of the “known face”, removes the learning curve, aids continuity and improves all round efficiency. We are proud of this position and benefit from what is probably one of the lowest turnovers of staff a company could hope for.

Company Structure

The business in both regional offices is divided into a number of clearly defined departments and cost centres each with its own manager responsible for the day to day operation of each section. Department structure: –

Electrical Contracts
Mechanical Contracts
Electrical Small Works
Mechanical Small Works
Building Division
Facilities Management

Each Department Manager reports directly to the Managing Director

Quality Standards

In keeping with our policy of providing a quality service and product, the business has become members of the industry standard NICEIC (National Inspection Council for Electrical Contractors), and the ECA(Electrical Contractors Association). We are also members of Gas Safe Register (approved gas installers) and Construction Line.

The above bodies and organisations continually assess our quality, both technically and financially . This coupled with our long term commitment to both apprentice and staff training, are a testament to our continued development of our industry.
We are also proactive in our quest to provide high quality installations and we actually engage the services of the NICEIC inspector to make additional visits to our sites and managers to keep the levels of performance and quality high.

We also continue to invest in in-house systems to produce up to date contract information and drawing and design calculations in line with the latest regulations. Work is also soon to get underway for our accreditation with the latest ISO QA standard.
