BENEFITS

There are many benefits and hidden cost savings associated with panelized system framing...

When all direct and indirect costs are reviewed, panelized framing may actually be lower than what you are currently budgeting for site framing. To further lower your risk and to make your job even easier, we offer complete installation of walls, floors and roof trusses through NSCi.

Reduced Cycle Time - The time savings can be days or even weeks. Panelized construction can have a guaranteed "framing schedule". It is possible to reduce the number of framing days for an average 2,000 sq. ft. home by 2-6 days.

Design Review Safeguards - Through the design review process, panel designers should be able to identify most if not all the dimensional/specification discrepancies, and bring them to your attention before framing starts.

Environmental Impact - All components are "optimized" to reduce waste, saving valuable resources both financially and environmentally.

Cleaner job sites with reduction in defects, cleanup, and scrap removal - Loose lumber, whether its scrap or new wood waiting to be used in the framing process presents its own set of management/cost issues.

Theft Reduction - Theft of wood from the jobsite is an ever increasing expense for the builder. People don't steal wall panels. Wall panel deliveries can be scheduled for same day installation.

Added Efficiencies - Managing material budgets and inventory control on the jobsite is a serious site management challenge. Keeping track of units of wood, and identifying material by lot and block, is an ongoing bottleneck for most site superintendents.

Optimizing material usage - As a panelized framing company we ensure our panels will fit, and will be built under a strict quality assurance program. With the installation services of NSCi, we also provide a guaranteed lumber package for not only the wall or floor panel material, but all your loose woods, engineered woods, and floor and roof trusses. With our material management and complete wood package guarantee, it frees up your site management to tackle other elements in the construction process. This translates to cost reductions.

Reduced insurance rates - The rising cost of liability insurance and workman's compensation insurance is impacting every licensed contractor. The good news is that workman's compensation insurance rates for offsite framing are significantly less than those for onsite framing services.
