We work to support the interest of communities to help build solutions to complex challenges. By involving local leaders and stakeholders, we work collaboratively to achieve mutual goals, including creating opportunities & building infrastructure to help communities thrive.
Smart Opportunity.
Our industry is adjusting as more technological advancements become commonplace within the construction process. At the same time, there is a scarcity of advanced skilled workers to fill future roles. We are committed to championing educational programs, experiences, internships, and training opportunities to help bridge these skill gaps.
Smart Representation.
Diversity in our workforce strengthens our capabilities and perspective, furthering our impact within the communities we serve. Addressing industry representation is essential in building and supporting the future talent that will continue to bring innovative ideas and solutions that are imperative to our success. We are committed to growing industry representation that is inclusive and equitable.
Smart Connections.
A reliable connection to the internet, declared a human right by the United Nations in 2011, is fundamental to education and remote employment yet rural Americans are 10 times more likely to lack broadband access than their urban counterparts. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) estimates that one-quarter of rural Americans, one-third living on tribal lands, do not have access to broadband (meaning download speeds of at least 25 megabits per second). We are committed to helping close this digital divide, see SmartTechnology to learn more.
Smart Community.
Through SmartCyte projects and volunteering time and expertise, we are committed to collaborating with local community leaders and stakeholders to identify challenges, build partnerships, and advance strategic endeavors to drive solutions that endure post building instillation.
Smart Supply Chain.
We know our commitment to opportunity extends into all parts of our operations and that through our purchasing power we can have further impact on the communities that support our business. We are committed on working with our suppliers to ensure ethical and fair treatment for workers, including safe and healthy workplaces.
