Ever come across work that’s Non-compliant? (I bet all the time) That column’s off by 10mm. Paint’s thin behind the flange. But there is no action, “It’s fine.” “Within tolerance.” “Let’s move on.” Because the deadline is close And we are all just dying to get the heck outta

It’s always the submittals. You chase Cons. You remind, you call the promise. And still— no reply. No shop drawing. No lifting plan. But the clock keeps ticking. And now the client is asking. Not your fault but YOU have to explain why the steel can’t be ordered because the

Not every RFI is innocent. Some are just disguised requests to shift the design risk back onto the consultant. “We need clarification…” Translation: “Can you redesign this for us?” No. The contract drawings show design intent. Not shop details. Not fabrication drawings.

Are you sure?— I’m not. You see the safety posters. The polished toolbox talks. The LinkedIn posts with all the right words. Everybody liking, commenting “Agree,” But here’s the truth— 1. It’s really hard to improve safety on site. 2 Nobody sees the success of not having an

Have you overlooked the Owner? We talk a lot about what contractors should do. What consultants should fix. How PMs need to lead. But you know who we rarely talk about? The owner and team. That’s right, the truth is— Projects stand or fall with the owner. Good ones are not

My 6 year old doing homework: “Mum, can you ask ChatGPT how to write banana?”

Anyone who says managing contractors is easy— is lying. We agree on a fixed scope. A fixed price. The materials and tools that will surely guarantee success…or will they? Cause a few months in just then— when you have given them the benefit of the doubt, you are not

Everybody wants the perfect BIM model. But here’s what you end up getting: Too much detail where it isn’t needed. And not enough where it really matters. We used to cut CAD sections only where the problems were— because that’s where coordination had value. Now in BIM, you

Agree or not— housekeeping is the number one point of failure in safety! AND the number one headache for safety and construction managers to get under control. I’m not kidding it has caused many professionals I know massive headache trying to get it to acceptable levels-

Agree or disagree— a project without report is out of control. Yes I know what you are thinking, and no I don’t agree. It doesn’t matter how well it’s going. If there’s no periodic report, there’s no visibility and visibility means you are on your own and things WILL go south
