Frey & Son General Manager Honored for Outstanding Custom Home Construction

Barry Frey, general manager of Frey & Son Homes, is a winner in the Production category of the eighth annual Pacesetter Award. Frey and other winners from across the nation are featured in the November/December issue of Custom Home magazine, which co-sponsors the award along with the National Association of Home Builder’s (NAHB) Custom Builder’s Committee.

The Pacesetter Award honors professionals who have demonstrated the highest level of performance and the strongest commitment to excellence in six areas of the custom home building business. In addition to Frey’s production category, winners were honored for management, customer service, marketing, design, and innovation.

“Producing $20 million of annual custom home volume means managing a staggering number of individual decision and operations,” states the article in Custom Home. “Barry Frey rides herd on this unruly process with a simple but powerful principle: Get things down on paper.”

Utilizing Frey’s extensive checklist system to track every task, his team is not only more productive, they enjoy less stress due to their well-deserved faith in the system’s ability to help them stay on track. Additionally, because his philosophy stresses continuous improvement, Frey constantly seeks input from his staff and subcontractors to improve the system and guarantee their success.

“This system of checklists allows our team to be proactive not reactive,” says Frey. “It’s essential to keeping our business and our team productive and working efficiently together.”
