Time and again, Baldwin General Contracting's own VP of Business Development, Todd Powell, has referenced a phrase that's become a mantra of sorts...but what does it mean to "run lean on pricing"? "This is a very good question. I say this a lot because it’s from the heart. Although Baldwin General does more negotiated projects, rather than hard bids, we excel in our estimating department...they never run into estimating capacity," Todd recently shared in our Inside Baldwin Q&A series. "Baldwin has built a unique team and invested into this estimating department to outwork the competition. A hard bid must have a good set of plans to be accurate, but we always have a deeper bench of subcontractors to get the client the very best pricing." https://lnkd.in/eUHvPABT #baldwin #baldwingeneralcontracting #generalcontracting #construction #build #renovation #oregon #idaho #washington #pacificnorthwest

When you’re competing to win a project as an underdog, you’ve got the freedom to push away from conventions and dare to be different — which can make you visible enough to stand out from the competition, and maybe even win. In today’s post, my partner Dean Hyers shares a client case study of a smaller firm landing a plum project by doing just that.

🔍 Have You Sat in a Meeting Before and Thrown Random Durations and Dates at a Programme? 🔍 If you say you haven’t, I think you are probably fibbing. I have sat in many meetings and asked a Project Manager how long we should include for package X on site and what the lead time for Y is. Too often, we rely on gut instinct rather than cold, hard data in construction. It’s no wonder so many projects finish late. In this week’s Own the Build, we imagine a world where project decision-makers have access to data and explore what that could mean for margins and the sector overall. Join us as we discuss: - The pitfalls of relying on instinct over data - The potential impact of real-time data on project timelines and efficiency - How accessible data could revolutionise decision-making in construction 🔗 Link to the full episode is here - https://lnkd.in/e4Q_JKjM. #OwnTheBuild #ConstructionData #ConstructionPodcast
