McCollum Construction Limited
The Christchurch-based McCollum Group, comprising of a number of independently-operating entities, has expertise in all aspects of building, be it domestic, commercial, agricultural and industrial customers and has special expertise in highly detailed and technically-challenging work.
McCollum comes with a reputation for over 60 years of effective management and excellent workmanship in the construction industry.
By setting up as a Construction bureau, McCollum has been able to attract and retain skilled personnel, sub-contractors to service its clients. The company brings economies of scale to its client companies which make feasible the operation of more sophisticated, secure computer plus back up systems than any one of the business units could individually justify. This results in faster, more detailed processing of information and reports to client company's, who can then make informed business decisions.
All day-to-day office functions are also processed, including creditors, debtors and payments; payment of wages and salaries; banking; monthly financial performance reports and trial balance sheets for each company; and updates of all contract records that allow speedy and accurate back costing for each business.
By acting as agent for its client companies, all parties are able to benefit from ‘bulk purchasing’ of such things as insurance, fuel, power, communications and stationary, as well as access to professionals in fields such as audit, legal, human resources and safety consultants.
The net result is that the trading companies have an administration system of a higher quality at lower cost than what they could separately afford, with the additional benefit of access to the expertise that comes from over 60 years of hard-won experience.
