Quality

Our quality assurance procedures encompass an array of services, including preplanning, coordination of engineering, materials procurement activities, scheduling, safety, labor supervision, ANSI and ASME standards and other field procedures, supervision of startup, troubleshooting, value analysis, dispute resolution among contractors, and training/certification. Our quality assurance program helps certify that work is done correctly the first time to eliminate the expenses associated with re-work and punch list items.

Midwest Mechanical Contractors holds PP, R, and A  welding stamps and routinely performs work under ASME boiler and pressure vessel codes. In addition to our own quality assurance / quality control standards, Midwest has embraced quality and healthy building standards from the American Society of Healthcare Engineers (ASHE) and the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).

ASHE Certified Healthcare Construction Professionals

Midwest Mechanical Contractors currently has 8 key construction professionals that hold the American Society of Healthcare Engineers (ASHE) Healthcare Construction Certificate. The program trains construction professionals in the language of healthcare and the latest trends in design and compliance issues facing providers. It also greatly improves the construction professional’s ability to effectively communicate with healthcare professionals during the negotiation and bidding process in language that demonstrates understanding of major issues including:

• The needs and expectations of the healthcare facility owner, staff, patients and visitors as it apply to the construction process.

• Methods to integrate a “Quality Control” program into the construction process.
• The risk management issues that need to be addressed when working in a healthcare facility.
• Understanding of the latest compliance issues facing the healthcare and construction markets.

U.S. Green Building Council LEED

The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System^® is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings. Members of the U.S. Green Building Council representing all segments of the building industry developed LEED and continue to contribute to its evolution. Certification enables Midwest Mechanical to join the growing consortium of companies that are engaged in constructing buildings that are environmentally responsible, healthy places to work, and officially register these buildings as LEED Certified. 

LEED provides a complete framework for assessing building performance and meeting sustainability goals. Based on well-founded scientific standards, LEED emphasizes state of the art strategies for sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. LEED recognizes achievements and promotes expertise in green building through a comprehensive system offering project certification, professional accreditation, training and practical resources.

LEED was created to:

• Define "green building" by establishing a common standard of measurement
• Promote integrated, whole-building design practices
• Recognize environmental leadership in the building industry
• Stimulate green competition
• Raise consumer awareness of green building benefits
• Transform the building market
