2. Know All
the Details
Taking time to clearly define a project, down to the last detail,
helps you predict and mitigate any risks that may lie ahead.
Start by establishing measurable successes and
milestones that you can track along the project's timeline, like
accomplishing tasks on schedule and on budget or achieving
client satisfaction. Ensure your crew is up to date on building
codes, materials, and any new products being used. And lastly,
know lead times for all materials before you start the job.
The best way to stick to your plan—even when setbacks and
unforeseen problems pop up—is to stay organized. Keeping
track of project deliverables, workers, timelines, and tasks is
essential to project management. By staying organized, you'll
be able to quickly modify your agenda as needed.
Technology Advantage:
A great way to stay organized is to use
project-focused software that tracks
and shares every aspect of a project's
life-cycle in real time. Technological
tools like this allow entire teams to stay
connected whether they're in the field
or the office, because contractors can
manage all areas of operation right from
their smartphone or tablet.
