@JJBlatchford love it - the 2nd point is huge - initial suggestions should be stuff like this w/ bldg code, MEP's and bigger swing items the end user doesn't really see. If the 1st suggestion is "let's change this carpet"....that ain't gonna cut it chief

Jerry Sheldon understands the importance of a well-engineered product, as well as the necessity of a good night’s sleep. For the past two years, he’s focused much of his energy on both as local president of Sleep in Heavenly Peace. https://t.co/QhYXkfciHc

1/ An RFI stands for "request for information." In short, it's a formal way to ask a question. Typically, these are used once a project has gotten going and the GC/CM is on board

@fortworthchris @Molson_Hart “Value Engineering” does not exist in their TI dictionary

@donnelly_b Would be great to get your 2cents with a blog post RE long-term city planning impacts from the makeshift Covid patios in the roads

@EstateRanger Capacity/backlog can make things even tougher - if it’s a hot market, the best guys may not even have an available slot for a client they don’t know

You’re going to become the average of the five people you spend the most time with. “Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future.”

@antonia_mdprjct @jmccart10 💯 agree - knowing how a building is put together is kind of important if you want to improve the process. I'd add that as these firms grow, they will eventually need to tailor different approaches across different markets (state codes, union labor dynamics, etc, etc)
