PEOPLE
Even as a child, I was interested in the value of the things around me. Later, I have discovered a passion for construction. I believe that the Tender Department is the heart of the company: the pump that propels the precise mechanism enabling all CFE cells to work together.
Piotr
“Do what you love, and you’ll never have to work a single day in your life”. I am lucky – my work is also my passion. At CFE, I deal with systems: their design as well as their subsequent implementation. The sight of a new building in a spot that used to be barren only a few months earlier is priceless!
Magda
Work in the construction industry is a challenge. Here, every day brings something new, and there are unexpected situations. OHS, quality and timeliness are the aspects I place the most emphasis on.

OHS
SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY AND HIGHEST VALUE
Health and safety of our employees and subcontractors is a priority in our projects. We strive for continuous safety improvement by preventing and minimizing accidents, occupational diseases and near misses to zero.
- CFE prioritizes training and monthly toolboxes that introduce employees to OHS issues. In order to improve safety inspections on construction sites, the engineering team together with the OHS department have developed the “Karolina” system. The introduction and successive use of the “Karolina” system has made work and communication between the construction supervision team and the OHS department easier.
Other safety-related activities at CFE:
- CFE’s Board carries out at least one safety inspection per month at a site.
- Every site employee attends a toolbox at least once a month.
- Practical OHS training for site engineers.
- Raising awareness and engagement among employees on OHS Day / during OHS Week and OHS competitions.
- Safe driving course for employees.
- Visual presentation of safety indicators on construction sites.
- Increased segregation of construction waste in order to reduce the amount of waste disposed at landfills.

Former Aproplan: an application streamlining the process of recording defects, non-conformities and good practices from inspections and acceptance processes on construction sites, and monitoring and reporting on related improvement activities. LetsBuild enables all participants of the construction process to collect information from the verification of work in progress in a single place. This way, they can respond faster to emerging problems, and coordinate activities on construction sites more efficiently.
A tool with which we create dashboards for monitoring indicators (KPIs) of safety, quality, sustainability and work scheduling by synchronizing data from various systems, including Aproplan, SharePoint, BDO, in a single place. Thanks to this integration, we can create summaries and visualizations of data for their ongoing analysis and reporting.
