JULY 2021 to its emphasis on technology, Dependable can work remotely. This technology allows it to take advantage of more opportunities despite being a significant distance from head office. In the future, Dependable intends to continue diversifying its project portfolio. Raj’s vision for Dependable is to have it secure projects in virtually every construction industry sector: “We want to do schools; we want to do retrofits, we want to do high-rise work, low-rise work, commercial, institutional – we want to do it all,” he says. “When one sector slows down, we want to make sure that we still have work in other sectors. We also want to provide our team members with varied experiences to foster the continuous development of their skillsets, which improves their level of engagement”. While Dependable’s goal is to become involved in all construction industry sectors, Raj is particularly keen to increase Dependable’s level of involvement in the field of green energy. “Over the years, Dependable has completed many LEED projects. The teamhas designed and constructed buildings that are most energy-efficient and maintain a low carbon footprint. Dependable is a member of the Canada Green Building Council, and many of its employees are LEED-certified. In this regard, Dependable offers its expertise to assist its clients in making the most environmentallyconscious choices.” “Dependable is doing a lot,” he concludes. “But we want to do more. We believe that energy-efficient building is the future. It’s something that Dependable’s team is very passionate about pursuing.”
