The ever-increasing demand and competition within the construction industry post-COVID have forced companies to respond more effectively to customers' requirements. Developers and contractors are treating this period of change as a learning curve, reassessing needs and working out strategic deals to transform and improve their current operational performances while encompassing customer-orientated practices. As the pandemic put forth new levels of complexity in projects, 3G Drywall continued to invest in its field management teams with the aim of delivering projects on time and budget with a great level of quality. "We push leadership training on a high level, we try to provide opportunities for employees to move up the ladder. We recently added an operation manager role to continue our growth," explains Mathew Gurley. Furthermore, the company's commitment to maintaining its employees and clients' well-being has resulted in successful and significant geographic expansion. "When the COVID-19 crisis struck, instead of sticking to what other construction firms call their bread and butter. We were accustomed to adapting and diversifying our services to meet the customer's varied needs," elucidates Gurley Jr. One such strategy is prefabrication. This method utilizes components made off-site in a factory to be assembled to entire structures on-site, allowing teams to deliver high-quality, cost-conscious projects. "We wanted to take a different approach to this and to the material shortage going on right now. We wanted to use pre fab on a smaller and more cost effective way for our clients". We wanted to keep more material in stock and communicate project material demands with our vendors," explains Gurley Jr. 3G Drywall surpassed its previous production record in 2020 in merely four months into this year and shows no signs of slowing down.Recently, it established a remote branch in San Antonio and is consistently experiencing growth in terms of service demands.

We are looking into taking on different scope items and different markets as company goals," concludes Gurley Jr. We strive to be a game-changer in the drywall industry by going the extra mile to meet the complex demands of our clients while transforming the drywall industry by leading, innovating, and providing superior service
