We are people of action who help the progress of each project by adapting spontaneously to our clients to provide simple, practical and flexible solutions, as well as anticipate future needs.

We produce quality deliverables while meeting deadlines. But more importantly, we are passionate about our work and are always on the lookout for new methods, techniques and technologies that allow us to maximize our effectiveness in the execution of our projects.
SAFETY
GCM Consultants‘ primary objective is to protect the health and safety of its employees and clients during all its activities and projects.
The recording of safety incidents and their rigorous analysis allow us to continually improve our security knowledge and systems. We are COR certified in several western Canadian provinces.
GCM is committed to provide, in a sustainable way, a performance among the best in the prevention of injuries, accidents, occupational diseases and environmental damages.
QUALITY
A simple desire for continuous improvement is no longer enough to distinguish oneself and exceed client expectations. In this perspective, GCM seeks to identify the innovative elements and the changes likely to provide a major impact on the quality of its services.
At GCM, quality flows directly from the following principles that we consistently apply to every project:
