Critical Factors in Construction Projects
When it pertains to construction-related projects such as painting, paving, roofing, etc. …consider two critical factors:
- Documentation …Spoken words are not good enough…If it isn’t in writing, you won’t get it.
- Scope clarity w/ oversight …You get what you inspect, not what you expect.
Clearly understanding these factors helps you to:
- reduce confusion,
- eliminate lost time, and
- prevent extra costs (sometimes including litigation expenses)
This is where a partnership with Huie Services is important. We work with you, your contractors, your property manager, your residents, jurisdictional authorities, and other professionals to perform our exclusive 15-Step Construction Project Management Service.
