To the untrained eye, a construction project is a work of art that simply appears on the horizon brick by brick, with all of the pertinent pieces coming together to create a new office tower, school or luxury home.

It is important for a contractor not to fall behind on any step of the process: consider new technology and automation to assist in creating a smooth process.
Before construction begins, a contractor’s primary job is to ensure all construction submittals are complete and approved. Submittals determine the accuracy of project completion, verify line items on the budget and show the proposed timeline.
