During this national healthcare crisis I felt it was important to reach out to all of my LinkedIn connections and share a message regarding future capital projects, renovations and tenant fit outs to ensure that you’re well positioned to resume business as quickly as possible when we emerge.
It is obvious that the way we all do business has changed, and it will change significantly for some of us for the foreseeable future.
Contracting Projects
Regarding Capital Projects, Renovation Projects and Tenant Fit Out Projects, consider these questions;
- What SHOULD my business look like when we come out on the other side of this?
- Will it go back to business as usual and we’ll just pick up where we left off?
- I have no idea what the impact will be or what to do about it.
- If the COVID-19 shut down is 60 days or longer, will the project delay process be the same time frame?
When this crisis has passed and contracting projects are ready to be moved forward, it’s important to realize that contractors’ capacity to take on new work won’t be extended by the length of the shut down, it will more likely be 3-5 months. If you were planning a project to start in June or July you could be looking at October or November.
Project Planning
For any of you that were, or are in the pre-planning or early planning stages of a project, I would ask you to consider a few things;
- Does the traditional process of how you’ve always planned out and bid your projects still serve your needs?
- Would you consider an alternative method or process if it saved your business or your clients both time and money?
- Would you consider an alternative method if it made YOUR job easier? Gave you more time to do some of the wonderful things you may have been able to do during this crisis like spend more time with family?
To help you plan for the months ahead and help ensure that your project gets up to speed as quickly as possible, I’d like the opportunity to talk to you, via Zoom video call. We can discuss what you may have coming up in the next few months and how Landmark General Contracting may be the right partner to get your project started 30%-40% faster.
