Ep.1597 - The Impact of Having the Wrong Trades

from Elevate Construction · host Jason Schroeder

In this episode, Jason dives into a critical issue in construction: having the wrong trades on your team. He explains why the key to success in pre-construction starts with choosing the right trades and trade leaders. If you're struggling with trades who aren't performing, it may be a sign of a failure in the pre-construction process. What you'll learn in this episode: Why having the wrong trades signals failure in pre-construction. The importance of pre-qualifying and interviewing trades before selection. How to align trade partners with your project's goals and culture. Why a good pre-construction system sets the project up for success. How the Bioscience Research Laboratory project demonstrated the value of the right trade selection. Are your pre-construction processes strong enough to ensure you have the right trades on your projects?    If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.
