Finding ways to differentiate your business in the marketplace can be difficult. Becoming a CERC can help by fostering confidence, strengthening relationships, and effectively managing environmental risks.
Companies like yours are already experiencing the benefits of CERC. Here’s what they are saying:
Get CertifiedA CERC Certificate demonstrates to the City and private owners that we are the most qualified contractor for any project from pre-construction through project completion, turnover, and long-term maintenance. Our environmentally responsible construction practices are very well demonstrated through our CERC.
Joining the CERC movement gave us valuable tools to differentiate and demonstrate our commitment to protect our customers and others from environmental problems, so much so that our company has grown over 81% in the last couple of years.
Your marketing kit is awesome … I just got through about everything you have on there and you guys make it really easy! Great job! And thank you!!
I like having the CERC certification. My company has been building civil infrastructure, water delivery, and hydroelectric projects for years. CERC certification is necessary for raising awareness on the importance of being environmentally responsible in the construction industry. It’s part of our overall profile that says we’re safe, we’re responsible, we deliver high-quality projects.
CERC matters because it is crucial to be transparent with customers and suppliers in regard to compliance and participating in mitigation risk from daily activities and projects environmental organizations take part in. It is all too easy for a firm to say they care about the environment but without certifying that in some way, those words are meaningless. Our commitment to train our staff to mitigate risk and insure our projects to cover our partners, are the foundation of our commitment to the environment.
Sustainability fosters trust. I want to help our clients create their dream homes and improve their daily lives - and this is only possible through environmental best practices. Our clients appreciate that we are recognized as a Certified Environmentally Responsible Contractor.
CERC helped us secure a contract with the 7th largest school district in the state. The in-depth and ahead-of-the-curve tools provided by CERC helped us gain an advantage and put us on a platform over our competitors. The marketing kit provided was tremendous and we look forward to leveraging our CERC certification more as our business rapidly grows.
