How is Your Search Going for Qualified Precast/Prestressed Concrete Candidates? With immense demand in the construction industry lately, I’m curious - how has your precast or prestressed manufacturing company been faring in recruiting professional talent to fill open positions? Have you struggled to attract applicants who meet your standards when it comes to: -Hands-on precast production experience? -Knowledge of prestressed concrete materials and tensioning methods? -Understanding quality control and testing procedures? -Reading and interpreting complex drawings and specs? -Maintaining inventory or production equipment properly? Finding and retaining top talent for specialized roles can certainly be a challenge! The network I’ve built allows me to quickly discover professionals around the country who have the exact qualifications, passion, and culture-fit that my clients are looking for.

Material and Project Planning in Residential Construction How many construction supervisors and tradies does it take to change a light bulb?  None, the light bulbs are late. This post is for anyone who’s ever worked in supply chain and/or construction. Coming from an FMCG Manufacturing and Supply Chain background I have learned that planning is a key to managing operations and capital efficiently. Not enough materials and manufacturing stops and customers don’t get product, too much and cash is tied up, warehouse space balloons and inventory risks becoming obsolete. That’s why FMCG companies (and building material suppliers) invest heavily in planning teams, S&OP processes and software systems – especially when they are managing tens of thousands of skus. The residential building companies (the customer) tend to fall into 2 camps – those that plan and those who react and whilst they don’t hold inventory there’s very good reasons to plan effectively. Those that plan ·      Understand the importance of having the right product at the right time to their customers, suppliers and the bottom line ·      Have a good grip on their current and future needs (at a project and business level) and this visibility is shared with all internal stakeholders ·      Have a good relationship with their suppliers ·      Can react quickly and with certainty when the environment changes Those who react  ·      Planning is seen as non-critical to the business, very few people see themselves as planners and systems and processes are very basic   ·      Material changes and complexity are seen as the suppliers job to manage ·      Generally manage day to day with a lot of “fire fighting”, urgent requests and escalations based on the days problems in what become a daily ritual A few volume builders I’ve worked with plan their builds very effectively – using either readily available tools and/or having developed their own tools and processes. Many of these businesses weathered the supply challenges much more effectively than their competitors through the Pandemic supply challenges – it wasn’t luck. It doesn’t require investment in new systems or new headcount or title changes – builders have the systems, people and skills in their teams – its about understanding that good planning and communication is critical and a competitive advantage and then embarking on change. #thinkwsieconsulting #supplychainplanning #residentialhousing

Don't Be Average. I was doing prep last night for my weekly email to our project team, and was looking up historical construction safety stats. A typical metric for construction project safety is TRIR (simple math is how many serious injuries per 100 people per year). The average for construction in the US is a TRIR of about 1.6. Thanks to our amazing safety and CM team, and the buy-in our our Trade Partners our current TRIR is around 0.04 for our Jacobs project in Holly Springs. If we were "average" we would have had roughly 75 serious injuries so far on this project. 25 years ago the construction industry TRIR was around 14, that math is sobering in terms of what was acceptable just a short time ago. One thing I hear regularly from people new to the site is that our safety requirements are over-the-top or that they are different than their last job. We are intentionally different. Do we really want to be average, where hurting our men and women in the field is considered normal? If you have a background in Life Science Construction and don't want to be "average", #OurJacobs has a great portfolio of projects for the next several years. We are actively recruiting the next generation of leaders in the construction industry. You can find all the Jacobs openings at http://careers.jacobs.com

There are a lot of reasons why I enjoy recruiting in the building materials space. But one of the top things that I love is placing someone in a role and seeing them post about a job that is getting delivered or installed that they sold! They are not only proud of what they do but I get to see the projects they are working on come to fruition! #recruiting #sales #management #buildingmaterials #boltactionrecruiting
