How we Operate
WK Construction’s solid reference base of successfully completed projects is underpinned by the technical expertise and applications knowledge that resides within the organisation.
Focused on delivering customer satisfaction, WK Construction is committed to the principles of sustainability through the implementation of good corporate governance and safety, health and environmental best practice on all its projects.
Governance
WK Construction’s shareholders and management support the principles contained in the Code of Corporate Practices and Conduct (Code) as set out in the King Report on Corporate Governance for South Africa 2002 (King II).
All business transactions are conducted in an open and transparent manner with accountability levels benchmarked at international best practice standards.
Risk Management
Risk Management, Commercial and Project control systems
Risk management remains a core driver within WK Construction and the company’s systems are focused on identifying risks within both the organisation and individual projects and mitigating against these. The company is committed to best practice risk management methodologies and this strategy filters through all processes and procedures.
Systems benchmarked against international best practice are used and highly skilled and experienced people are tasked with building detailed project plans prior to project commencement. WK Construction has a strong ethos of partnering with customers and other stakeholders during this process to ensure the timeous resourcing of projects with people, material and equipment. This strategy facilitates quality project delivery safely, on time and within budget. We utilise up to date estimating, accounting and project control software.
