This episode is a re-run. It was originally published in April 2023.Two electrical subs. Same project. Same scope.One made a killing. The other nearly went under.And here's the thing, right? The one that nearly collapsed actually did the better job on site. But their variations never got approved. Their EOTs weren't submitted properly. Their scope looked late on paper. And the head contractor hit them with liquidated damages.The other sub? Quietly contractually savvy. Got every variation paid. Protected their margin.Same site. Same scope. Nothing to do with the quality of the work.In this episode, we break down what separates the subs who scale from the ones who get quietly bled dry, one small variation at a time.If you've ever finished a job and wondered where the margin went, have a listen.Struggling with unfair contracts or slow payments in construction?
