Health & Safety Program
At MIGO Construction Group, we understand the importance of safety, and that is why we have implemented a comprehensive safety program based on the USACE's Health and Safety Manual, EM 385-1-1, which is widely recognized as the industry standard in the federal construction industry. This manual provides guidelines and procedures for identifying and controlling hazards, protecting employees, and maintaining a safe work environment on all projects, including our highly complex federal construction projects. We hold regular safety meetings and training sessions to ensure that our employees are fully aware of the manual's requirements, as well as job-specific hazards, and are equipped to handle any situation that may arise on the job. Clear communication channels are in place for reporting incidents, and ongoing safety inspections and audits are conducted to identify and address any potential hazards. Our zero-tolerance policy for safety violations ensures that all employees are held accountable for maintaining a safe work environment. By following the guidelines set forth in the USACE's Health and Safety Manual, MIGO Construction Group is dedicated to providing our employees, customers, and partners with the safest working environment possible and meet or exceed the safety standards of the government agencies with which we partner.

MIGO Construction Group's quality control program is designed to ensure that all projects are completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, and to the highest industry standards. Our program includes the following three phases of inspection, which are in line with the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) inspection process:
- Preparatory Inspection: During this phase, MIGO's quality control team will review the plans and specifications for the project and coordinate with the contractor, the USACE, and other stakeholders to ensure that all necessary inspection resources are in place.
- Initial Inspection: This phase involves conducting a thorough inspection of the work during construction to ensure compliance with the approved plans and specifications, and to identify any deficiencies that need to be corrected.
- Follow-Up Inspection: Once continued correct progress has been observed during the Initial Inspection, the quality control team will conduct follow-up inspections to ensure compliance with the approved plans and specifications.
Throughout the program, MIGO's quality control team will document all inspections and any deficiencies identified. They will also coordinate with the subcontractor to ensure that all necessary corrective actions are taken in a timely manner and that no incorrect work is built upon or covered up. MIGO's quality control program is designed to ensure that all federal construction contracts are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest industry standards.

Subcontractor Management
At MIGO Construction Group, we understand the importance of having competent, qualified, and safe subcontractors performing work on our projects. That's why we have a comprehensive approach to identifying and managing our subcontractors on our projects. Our approach includes the following steps:
- Pre-qualification: Before awarding a subcontract to a company, we thoroughly evaluate the subcontractor's qualifications, including their experience, financial stability, and safety record. This ensures that we are working with only the most capable and trustworthy subcontractors.
- Cost management: We establish a budget for the subcontractor's work and closely monitor their progress to ensure they stay within budget. We understand the importance of controlling the project’s costs and staying within budget.
- Schedule management: We set a schedule for the subcontractor's work, which is developed with their input, and closely monitor their progress to ensure they are on track to meet deadlines. We know that timely completion of the project is critical and we work with our subcontractors to make sure everything is done on time.
- Performance management: We evaluate the subcontractor's performance during the contract, including the quality of their work and their compliance with safety regulations. This allows us to make sure that our subcontractors are meeting or exceeding the standards and requirements of our projects.
At MIGO Construction Group, we strive to build and maintain a positive and productive relationship with our subcontractors, ensuring that their cost, schedule, and performance are monitored and managed. We believe that by working closely with our subcontractors, we can deliver the highest quality projects, on time, within budget, and 100% safe.

Subcontractor Management
MIGO Construction Group manages project schedules for general construction projects for USACE and Air Force clients by utilizing Oracle Primavera Scheduling software. With this software, we create detailed project schedules that include all required tasks, milestones, and deadlines. Our team works closely with the USACE and Air Force to establish clear and realistic project timelines, taking into account any known constraints or requirements. We also regularly update the schedule as the project progresses, ensuring that we are on track to meet all deadlines and deliver a successful project. Additionally, we use critical path method (CPM) and earned value management (EVM) methodologies to monitor and control the project schedule and cost.
In order to ensure realistic and achievable durations for our subcontractors' scopes, we partner with them to gather input and ensure buy-in on the project schedule. This includes gathering realistic and achievable durations from our subcontractors, and incorporating their input into the schedule to ensure their buy-in. We also take into account our customer's (e.g. USACE and Air Force) mission-critical operations and schedule our work around those operations to minimize disruptions. This approach allows us to build schedules that are realistic and achievable, while also ensuring that our customer's mission-critical operations are not impacted.
