You’ve probably done this before—maybe leaping before you looked. Like winning the low bid and living to regret it. Or failing to consider that a construction site is on a hill and/or realizing after you submitted your bid that specialized equipment will be needed to complete the job.
If you’re like me, those “good ol’ days” have probably been on your mind this past year. I’m sure lots of wall and ceiling contractors who are usually busy doing primarily private work like tenant improvements, have found themselves bidding on public projects like schools, or municipality projects. With remote working, new safety protocols, and entire segments shut down, it’s not surprising that many contractors have had to quickly pivot, reevaluate, and keep moving forward.
