EPISODE 420: How do general contractors (GCs) spend most of their time?
A recent study conducted on job sites reveals that GCs spend only 8% of their time in the field. The rest is consumed by tasks such as documenting discrepancies (16%), searching for the right information (15%), and meeting preparation (13%).
Why are we wasting so much of these skilled professional’s time doing paperwork?
Enter Trunk Tools–a platform designed to optimize workflows, enhance collaboration, and achieve a high level of efficiency.
