Management System
Hunt’s Management System provides a consistent framework for assessing, managing, and optimizing processes and performance. It ensures we have the procedures and controls in place to operate and grow as an organization in a deliberate and sustainable manner.
The elements of the Management System are aligned into a logically sequenced framework that can guide work at any level of the organization. Each standard within the framework is supported by processes that Hunt expects all employees to meet.
