Ep.1287 - Why Do I Have to Ask for Coordinates? It Is Insane!

Why Are We Still Begging for Coordinates in 2024? In this episode, Jason exposes one of the dumbest (and most damaging) habits still plaguing our industry the lack of coordinate transparency on civil plans.

He breaks down:

·         Why “basis of bearings” without actual coordinates is useless

·         The ridiculous back-and-forth that GCs are forced into on every project

·         How a simple standard (publishing gridline coordinates with the civil plans) could eliminate weeks of wasted time and rework

·         What should become the new industry expectation moving forward

If you’re a superintendent, field engineer, surveyor, design manager or just someone tired of preventable nonsense this is one you don’t want to skip.
