Send us a text The Hot Seat is a burden disguised as a promotion. Some shops call it Director of Field Force. Others, Superintendent. Regardless of the name, it’s a tough job. How long can you ride the lightning before burning out? It doesn’t have to be this way. Becoming the company firefighter isn't something you'll just have to accept because, well, construction is hard. Hopping from job site to job site to job site fixing labor problems doesn't have to be the norm. "A little fire prevention helps. The fires aren't roaring up everywhere you look because you're doing a better job managing. That alleviates the burden on that individual quite a bit." – Gary Fuchs A Workforce Management platform can help prevent losing your most experienced employees to extreme stress. This week, Brian Witt and Gary Fuchs offer their insights on one of the most exhausting jobs for a contractor. Learn more at our website or on our social channels: Website Linkedin Facebook YouTube…

Send us a text Building your own Workforce Management platform is expensive. On top of that, makeshift scheduling tools can’t withstand the test of time and will leave you in a lurch when they inevitably fail. Your people will find the limitations of your software far faster than you expect. It’s a lot harder than it might seem too, because writing spreadsheet macros doesn't necessarily translate to building and maintaining a piece of software. This week's episode takes a deep dive on the hidden hardships of building your own WFM tool. Learn more at our website or on our social channels: Website Linkedin Facebook YouTube…

Send us a text The devil is in the details. This episode of Construction is Hard takes a look at the perils of runaway detailing budgets. You probably know a Two Week Thomas. Ask him how much longer he’s on a project, and he’ll always give the same answer: Two weeks. “He becomes the guy in the trailer and he's doing all kinds of things. He's emptying the garbage, you know, he's keeping the copier full of paper. He's sweeping the floors. He's doing everything, right? He’s running out in the field to answer field questions. He has no real incentive to come off the job. They need him there. He knows he's needed there.” He’s sinking your detailing budget. This season is all about "lumps of coal," AKA actionable insights that can lead to better business outcomes.

Send us a text Why are we talking about Information? Imagine printing out a colored CAD drawing. All the systems are different colors - the power is blue, the fire alarm is red, etc. But then you send the black and white version of the drawing out to the field to save money.

Send us a text Join Brian, Gary & special guest Toby Mitchell from Classic Electric & Consulting on the fourth pillar in the WFM Business Practice: Communications. We define Communications as the active push of information to pertinent parties. Why hasn’t construction adopted better forms of communication? It’s perplexing. The reason: there haven’t been platforms to create the right foundation, creating a “central nervous system” so information can be sent the way it should be.

Brian and Gary define Scheduling as “the process of allocating current employees across multiple projects with consideration to the individual attributes (the Roster), and current or future availability, all done while balancing project needs. Learn about the differences between project and workforce scheduling, and why Scheduling can’t be done with out a platform fit to the task.
