A UNITED
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Construction is a team sport that requires a coordinated effort from architects, builders, subcontractors, and suppliers, all working toward a common goal. The only way to succeed is for each player to perform their role effectively and communicate well. Despite the industry’ s reliance on teamwork, true collaboration remains rare.
The best construction companies- the ones that consistently complete projects on time and within budget- understand that their success shouldn’ t trump others. Keeping everyone aligned from start to finish makes it more likely that a project will finish on time, and everyone, from the builder to the homeowner, will be happy with the final product.
A recent analysis by Touchplan, which examined over 321,000 construction activities, identified misaligned schedules in handoffs as the biggest drivers of delays. Material shortages and labor constraints typically get most of the blame, but it all goes back to communication.
