Service Approach and Philosophy
Inspired by the core values of B Corporations, Próxima Servicios delivers support services to a diverse clientele, including companies, government agencies, universities, communities, and condominiums—on both a permanent and occasional basis. The guiding principle is the concept of Supercontracting, which integrates the traditional subcontracting service with a strong triple impact focus. Workers are not merely employees but are actively engaged as partners through the Próxima Cooperative. This association reinforces the notion that superior service stems from a strong partnership and commitment to doing things right.
Customer Impact and Assurance
For clients, the benefits extend far beyond quality service. The collaboration with a certified provider brings several key advantages: by working with Próxima Servicios, clients can enhance their own sustainability indicators and elevate their brand reputation. This transformation—turning a service traditionally associated with potential pitfalls into one that significantly improves operational sustainability—is a breakthrough. There is also a noticeable reduction in the risk of subpar practices that could lead to labor, environmental, or safety issues. In a market where subcontracting often comes with hidden concerns, the commitment to never compromise on quality or cut unnecessary costs is a unique guarantee, providing assurance and building trust with every engagement.
Operational Excellence and Industry Transformation
The work methodology employed by Próxima Servicios is not only geared towards providing exceptional service but also towards redefining the entire subcontracting market. The Supercontracting model integrates excellence in operational execution with responsible practices. With a turnover rate far below the industry average, the continuity and stability of operations lead to a more consistent and elevated service performance. This consistency and dedication to quality demonstrate that a better company indeed generates better service—a sentiment that is evident across all interactions and engagements with clients.
Safeguarding Quality and Reputation
Ensuring top-notch sustainability practices and adherence to regulatory standards creates a virtuous cycle of quality and trust. For instance, the potential risk of labor, environmental, and safety issues under traditional subcontracting is significantly minimized by adhering to robust, triple impact protocols. This careful balance between cost and responsible practice has set the organization apart. There is an unmistakable commitment to do things correctly every single time… a pledge to both uphold the company’s reputation and enhance the client’s public image through reliable service delivery.
