What We See in Contracting Businesses

Overtime appearing on nearly every payroll cycle

Crews sent to jobs at the wrong size, too many or too few

High turnover creating constant rehire and training cost

Labor hours per job type never tracked against estimates

Subcontractors used at inconsistent rates with no benchmark

Crew paid regardless of job completion rate or pace

Our Process for Fixing This

Run labor hours-per-job-type analysis on the last 6 months to build a real baseline for estimating

Build a scheduling system that matches crew size to job scope before dispatch, not after arrival

Identify the top 3 subcontractor relationships and benchmark their rates against market to renegotiate

8 to 15%

labor cost reduction

Never costed

What one crew member walking actually costs you in recruiting, training, and ramp

No headcount

cuts required, this is efficiency, not reduction
