How to get started: Three steps to more bids and leaner jobs.

1

Review your estimating process.

To bid more jobs, you must first have an efficient bidding process. Ask questions to determine if your process is efficient. Do your estimators ever waste any time on mindless, repetitive tasks? Is your chief estimator confident on bid day, or does he worry about what is in the estimate?

2

Review your job management process.

To run leaner jobs, you not only need effiency in the field, but you also need full awareness of daily production. Ask questions to rate your current process. Do you have an easy way to compare actual production against planned production every day? Do you waste time with paper timesheets? Do you pay “data entry professionals” to enter field data? Do you suffer from double data entry?
