Neil T. Delucenay, Vice President,
has received the professional designation for Certified Professional
Constructor (CPC).
He is one of 1,980 practitioners throughout the United States to
be certified in a program developed by national construction trade
and professional associations under the auspices of the American
Institute of Constructors. Similar to the Professional Engineer
registration process, the CPC certification is a rigorous two-step
qualification program based on experience, education, and written
examinations. The first examinations were offered in the
fall of 1996 at approximately 70 universities nationwide.
The voluntary certification program was developed in response to
evolvement of the management of construction as a profession during
the twentieth century. As the construction industry volume continues
to grow into this next century, it will require more and better
prepared Professional Constructors to overcome the challenges.
One of those challenges is to set high standards of practice and
to improve the image of the current and future Constructor. Over
the next few years it is expected that several thousand graduates
from accredited university degree programs in construction will
seek the initial Associate Constructor (AC) designation along with
many additional experienced Constructors qualifying for the full
Certified Professional Constructor (CPC) title.
Asked about the designation, DeLucenay states that “with
the increased complexity of the construction process the management
function has assumed a more critical role in the construction project.
This has necessitated the requirement for significant improvements
in the qualifications of the industry’s personnel, creating
the function of a professional constructor separate to the professions
of architecture and engineering. The Certified Professional Constructor
program provides recognition to this new role together with a
standard of qualification by which third parties can assess the
individual manager. In turn this provides a meaningful professional
achievement goal for young managers entering the industry, and
should serve to attract the talent that construction requires.”

by Heather Crews, Public Information Officer, NCDOL The North
Carolina Department of Labor recently signed its first partnership
with a construction company to promote awareness of workplace
safety and health. Patterson & Wilder Construction,
which has offices in Newton Grove, Raleigh and Wilmington, and
the department signed the agreement in the fall to foster safety
in the construction industry. The program officially kicked
off at the beginning of 2004. The company specializes in
the construction of gas pipelines. "We believe this is the
opportunity for Patterson & Wilder and the utilities industry
to present the challenges we face," said Gray Lewis, a company
vice president. "
This
partnership is going to help create an unprecedented line
of communication between the industry and NCDOL." As
part of the agreement, NCDOL provides safety and health training
for subcontractors and employees. Patterson & Wilder
provides training to NCDOL employees on gas pipeline construction. "Patterson & Wilder
is involved in many unique operations, such as excavation
under rivers," said Les Kafel, NCDOL bureau chief. "We
believe that they are going to be a great source of information
for our department and in turn, we will help them protect
employees' safety and health." Other aspects of the
alliance include workshops, conferences and participation
in NCDOL recognition programs. In 2002 the construction industry
represented 24 percent of the 169 work fatalities, although
the 44 deaths reflected a 13.7 percent drop from the 51 in
2001. "Increasing safety among construction workers
has been a top priority for NCDOL," Kafel said. "This
partnership is just another step in that direction."
On June 6, 2000, Patterson & Wilder Construction Co., Inc.
was awarded the prestigious North Carolina Department of Labor
Annual Safety Award, the "Certificate of Safety Achievement" for
1999.
The Greater
Wilmington Chamber of Commerce and New Hanover Health Network
sponsored the Twenty-Fifth Annual Safety Awards Dinner for the
regional winners at the Hilton Wilmington Riverside. Commissioner
of Labor, Harry E. Payne, Jr., and other officials from the Department
of Labor were on hand to present awards. This achievement
places Patterson & Wilder in a select group of businesses and
public agencies within North Carolina. Mr. Gray Lewis,
Vice President, represented the company at the dinner. Patterson & Wilder
is proud to promote safety in the workplace and in our employees'
daily lives.
