In his welcome remarks, Austria said instilling "quality" as a top of mind priority among employees has served DMCI Homes well with the company becoming synonymous to best value and superior quality homes.

"It's easier now for our sellers to sell our projects because according to them DMCI Homes is already known for its quality projects," Austria shared.

The DMCI Homes chief however was quick to point out the big responsibility that comes with the good image the company has built through quality projects over the years.

"But of course on the other side of the coin is the responsibility of making sure that we maintain that image of us. It continuously reminds us of the importance of sustaining our efforts in these quality programs," Austria said.

"The market has high expectations from us because they have seen from our previous projects that we were able to provide best value," the president stressed.

Nonetheless, Austria expressed confidence that the country's first Quadruple A builder-developer will be able to sustain its drive for excellence because of the company's quality campaign among employees that is spearheaded by the Quality Council.

"With our continuing quality campaign, we are very, very confident that we will continue to be much much better in value compared to what the other developers are offering," Austria said.
