say, because it can be a scary process – if it’s your job to make sure the building is built properly, your reputation and your livelihood could be on the line if you pick the wrong partner to go with. We want to give our clients confidence that we’re the right partners.” “Our goal is always to take really good care of our clients and make sure that they don’t have to go back to their superior with bad news,” Sean says. “We minimize bad news. We really, really do.” Minimizing bad news can be challenging at times, Sean admits, but Dancor has proven their ability to do what it takes and overcome those challenges. For example, the pandemic presented a lot of supply chain challenges, which caused project delays industry-wide – but not for Dancor’s clients. “COVID put us to the test, really put us to the test,” Sean says. “It forced us to become very, very resilient and very, very tactical in how we were going to get building materials that were almost impossible to get. But we made it happen.” “We probably lost a few years off our lives doing it because it took a lot of stress and yelling and screaming and a little bit of money,” he adds. “We had to pay some extras to make things happen. But it all got done. The clients that we built with throughout COVID were not affected. Schedules were not affected because of the pandemic.” Sean credits Dancor’s resilience primarily to the expertise and talent of the company’s team – a category that includes their direct staff, as well as their roster of subcontractors and suppliers. Even in non-COVID times, Sean says it can be challenging to keep a project on track and on budget, but he says Dancor can do it because they have developed such a strong team both internally and externally that collaborates so seamlessly.
