Ideas put to work

"This is innovation at its best. Not only does the prefabricated riser support framing system we developed allow our workers to be safer, but it also saves time and money on healthcare projects which ultimately turns into dollars spent on patients and patient safety. UMC's safety, quality and efficiency on vertical installations all improved when we started manufacturing these openings."

MATT MIFFLIN, GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT

Patient safety & continuous improvement

Our commitment to continuous improvement is the bedrock of UMC’s culture. We recognize that creating a just culture that prioritizes ‘humble inquiry’ and emotional safety is every day work. This is how UMC avoids making the same mistake twice and fosters alignment with best practices in the physical environment. By 2023 100% of UMC employees working on healthcare accounts will be ASHE PEW certified. We have been recognized for dozens of safety awards including AGC of WA 1st Place Safety Excellence, AGC Build Washington Safety Excellence, AGC of WA Grand Award, MCAA 1st Place National Safety Excellence, among others.
