Builders, Budgets, and Beers · Stop Guessing Your Margin with Jeremy Sloane · 11 Feb 2026 podcast

we just have to listen and we have to talk to each other because i think if somebody had if i had somebody like even my dad and i are in this business or we're in this business together right like but even the two of us within our own business weren't

talking about some of these growing pains and some of these things it was just sort of like this is the way we do it and he had a great partner in a project manager that was with him for 30 years right like how often do you have guys that are with you for 30 years you the reason you do things as a company is because of that great employee well not everybody is going to be that great employee so you have to be built for

the sort of middle of the road.

And then when you get somebody who's incredible, right?

Like then you push your standards and you, you push your systems and develop it further.

Man.

Um,

so the the biggest one of the biggest challenges that i think uh i can i guess i can't speak for everybody but that that we've had as an as a construction company has been

getting good information out of the field to the office um whether that be to qualify bills that come into the office or to estimate the next job or to justify to a client why x y and z had to be done on their project that was beyond what we originally budgeted um or to an architect or to a designer etc etc right goes down the line um before so we were uh

we brought on a project management software in 21 uh 20 2020 and it just didn't nobody bought into it um we tried um it got better we were we were with that company until actually very recently um but one of the

one of the most important systems that we developed is like daily logs are no longer an option your as a superintendent your daily log is part of like it's just you have to put one out every day even if something didn't happen i want to know that something didn't happen and why it didn't happen it could be because it rained but like

I don't want to go back into the history of the weather report to figure that out.

It should be in our software.

And then from that, we put together a weekly update for each project, which is a list of what happened, a list of what is going to happen the next week, and then any hot button items that we need from the rest of the team that is not us.

So architects, designers, owners,

decisions that we need uh why did an inspection fail what does the town require out of us for x y and z um that we need an architect to provide a drawing on or something to that effect so it all kind of starts with that daily log and then it spiders from there we have a

a project coordinator, assistant PM that works fully remotely and she can't be on the job.

She has to get information from the field in order to know what to do for her job.

So without those daily logs, she can't put together her weekly update, which means our schedule doesn't actually reflect anything that's happening in the, in the field.

So that's,
