CONSTRUCTION PROJECT GOING “SIDEWAYS”
Whether you are a Contractor or Developer, a project going “sideways” and falling victim to deficiency, delay, distress and dysfunction will always have the potential to derail an otherwise viable and feasible development.
Whether the project has:
1. THOUSANDS of requests for information (RFIs) with many identified as unanswered; and/or,
2. HUNDREDS of change order requests, most of which are not resolved; and/or,
3. DOZENS of change directives which has caused numerous invoicing conflicts;
a project without leadership and guidance in the face of crisis and uncertainty will almost always lead to project failure.
The construction industry is facing an unprecedented personnel shortage and complex construction projects are often left to inexperienced general contractors, construction managers, project managers, site supervisors, contracts administrators and trade contractors which causes projects to be severely troubled, delayed, deficient and or distressed. This is leading to many construction projects being delivered: i) behind schedule and ii) over budget. This inevitably creates undue hardship for Developers, General Contractors, Design-Builders, Sub-Contractors, Vendors and Suppliers alike.
