New retail division seeks to improve home delivery, installation and site prep process by growing national network of dedicated teams
SPARTA, Tenn., Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Clayton Homes, the retail division of Clayton off-site built homes, announces its new HouseSmart Construction™ company. During a time when affordable homeownership has had increasing demand, HouseSmart Construction was formed in response to the general increase of off-site built home purchases and the need to address the complexities of the steps of site construction completed during the off-site home building process. HouseSmart Construction aims to improve the quality and accountability of Clayton Built® homes and the Clayton customer experience by integrating the delivery, installation and site construction steps more seamlessly into the home buying journey.
Led by Chuck Morgan, recently named Vice President of HouseSmart Construction, the new company initiative kicks off with the acquisition of RCB Trucking of Sparta, TN. The RCB team will be welcomed to the Clayton Homes family as new team members, and they will benefit from a consistent flow of future home projects, new equipment and improved team member experience.
"We've heard the need for a better solution from many of our retail partners as they seek to overcome challenges of keeping up with the growing demands and complexities of site construction in our manufactured housing industry," said VP of HouseSmart Construction Chuck Morgan. "Clayton Homes plans to grow its HouseSmart Construction footprint nationally in the coming years."
