It is no shock that over 10% of commercial construction projects run into serious trouble. Probably the biggest problem are contract breaches by major subcontractors, but a host of other events can severely damage a project or even bring them to a grinding halt. Problems such as strikes, material cost escalation, incorrect scheduling, supervision errors and the notorious coordination with owner’s other contractors can push a job into this category. Sometimes the plans and specifications themselves are the source of the trouble. Jobs like this absorb much of the General Contractor’s resources, and sometimes absolutely overcome in-house resources. There are advantages to bringing in a consultant such as Titus Construction. First, it helps to have an outsider’s view on the situation. Second, a consultant can bring new remedies to bear to move the project in a more positive direction. It is a big help to have a series of options laid out with likely outcomes and costs presented so that there are choices of action.
