Episode 121 of The DYOJO Podcast focuses on the challenges of project management in construction, emphasizing the need for profitability and customer satisfaction.
Key metrics for success include completing projects on scope, on budget, and on time. Various scenarios of lackluster outcomes were examined, such as projects that are on budget and on schedule but off scope (potentially leading to fraud), or projects that are on schedule and on scope but off budget due to unmanaged scope creep.
This conversation highlights the importance of clear communication, proper planning, and timely capture of change orders to avoid financial and reputational issues.
Thursdays are for The DYOJO Podcast - helping contractors shorten their DANG learning curve. Join host Jon Isaacson as we explore contractor stories, experiences, and best practices to help listeners thrive in the skilled trades.
