Construction and Design-Build
Estimating capacity, project records and decades of job history in the heads of people approaching retirement.
Contractors and design-build firms where the office is the ceiling on the field, and where what the company knows is about to walk out the door.
What we hear from organizations like yours.
- "Quotes take too long and we lose bids to whoever is faster"
- "We run eight pieces of software and none of them talk"
- "One person knows how everything works and she is retiring"
- "We find out a job is over budget after it is over"
- "Submittals and closeout paperwork are weeks behind"
Where we usually start.
The assessment decides which comes first, on the evidence. These are the areas that usually apply.

Proposed
What makes this sector different.
The work is physical and the margins are tight. A week of delay on a quote or an invoice is real money, and the people who know the process are usually in the field, not at a desk. What the company knows is in job history and in a few people's heads, and neither is currently something the company can ask a question of.
