CAPACITY
We believe that people make the company. At Western, our capacity is enabled by our team of the best and brightest talent – highly respected employees who possess the knowledge, skills, right attitude, and experience that have made us a leader in the building industry. Our capacity is further enhanced by our heightened focus on safety, including our use of the best tools and technology the industry has to offer. And, our commitment to continuous learning keeps us on the cutting edge of new and innovative building sciences, materials, and methods.
STABILITY
Western has been in continuous, successful operation since 1975, completing a wide portfolio of project types throughout New England. As a wholly owned subsidiary of The O’Connell Companies, which was founded in Holyoke over 135 years ago, our sound leadership, experienced management, and exceptional work has lead to our impeccable reputation. Western is fully bonded to $100M single / $250M aggregate, and operates at the highest level of safety policies, procedures and construction methods.
DIVERSITY
Critically important to our success is the cultural, socioeconomic and gender diversity of our staff. In fact, it is this diversification that broadens and deepens our knowledge base and helps us relate to clients and other stakeholders in ways others can’t. Together, we are a team of highly intelligent individuals formally trained in the fields of architecture, civil and structural engineering, mechanical engineering, construction management, building trades, business, and the arts, who are fully committed to the quality and success of your project.
INTEGRITY
Paramount to our core principles is the commitment to integrity and honesty in all of our business relationships. We act ethically and responsibly with every stakeholder, on every project, every time. And while Western is most recognized for the many successful projects we have completed, it is the relationships we have built with clients, architects, designers, subcontractors, and vendors that defines us. For, working together as a team, we can ensure project delivery on time, on budget, and to the highest degree of quality.
