Approach to procurement in our current economic climate
Current issues across the construction market only become problems without proactive management. Long lead time items, material cost escalation, supply chain issues, labor shortage are problematic issues that can be easily solved before they become issues. We will work with manufacturers, suppliers, and installers to identify long lead items and provide early release requirements to meet the project schedule and avoid last minute alternative measures. Material Cost Escalations can be forecasted through communication and monitoring the market. We will work with vendors to purchase material when the costs are down and store onsite as well as contract with vendors, immediately after award and release material for fabrication immediately to avoid inflation to meet the project schedule and avoid last minute alternative measures.
