Ep.1141 - How to Prevent Sub-optimized Trades—A Question

How to Stop Trades from Self Optimizing and Keep Your Project on Track

Ever had a trade partner prioritize their own schedule over the success of the entire project? In this episode, we dive into the exact strategies you need to prevent self-optimization before it derails your job. From real-world pre-construction planning examples to visual iterations that align every contractor’s work, I break down how to get commitments early, avoid costly conflicts, and keep your team moving as one cohesive unit.

If you’re a superintendent, project manager, or construction leader tired of firefighting because someone “does their own thing,” this episode is your blueprint to maintain control, optimize workflow, and get predictable results without stepping on toes.
