Building Happiness
Happy to Help
Learn today, succeed tomorrow
Do the right thing
Success is in the Details
Go Home Healthy
Do what you say you're going to do
We build it right, we build it strong, we build it happy.
Regardless of how busy you are, don’t wait to be asked to lend a helping hand. “It’s not my job” isn’t in our language.
Assuming that everything will work itself out is an invitation for failure. Be proactive and get into the details.
No matter what the cost, everyone we work with will go home healthy to their families every day.
Talk is cheap; follow-through takes effort. Commit to a plan, execute, and own the results.
Mistakes are great! …as long as you learn from them and share the experience with others so everyone can improve.
Every company SAYS they’re ethical when nothing’s on the line, but Colony DOES the right thing no matter what it costs us.
We build it right, we build it strong, we build it happy.
Our Core Values
Happy to Help
Learn today, succeed tomorrow
Do the right thing
Success is in the Details
Go Home Healthy
Do what you say you're going to do
No silos. No excuses. We lend a hand whenever and wherever it’s needed.
We embrace mistakes as learning opportunities and we share what we learn to help the whole team grow.
Ethics aren’t situational. We choose the right path, even when it’s the harder one.
Proactive planning and attention to detail are key to preventing costly missteps. We think ahead, and we think deep.
Safety comes before everything else. Everyone deserves to return home safe at the end of every day.
Talk is easy. Execution takes discipline. We follow through, own our results, and deliver what we promise.
