### Our values

01  
**Champion the trades**  
We exist to serve the trades: the electrical specialty contractors and the electricians doing the work.

02  
**Be radically transparent**  
Transparent communication isn’t just a right, it’s an expectation. Just make sure it’s also necessary and respectful.

03  
**Take complete ownership**  
Every member of the Buildforce team is an owner in the business, literally. Taking ownership means giving it 110% effort, finding ways to get better over time, and taking responsibility for your mistakes.

04  
**Team over ego**  
We make decisions that are in the best interest of our collective team. No room for egos or politics here.

05  
**Dream big, move fast**  
We’re here to address big problems with even bigger solutions. The bigger we think and the faster we move, the further we’ll go.

06  
**Make music**  
Music is part art and part science, part chaos and part order, left-brain and right-brain. Musicians do it because they love the thing they’re creating, constantly want to learn new things, collaborate with others, and aren’t afraid to fail.
