We explore the controversial world of managing subcontractors effectively, revealing how the right payment structure and relationship management can dramatically improve your contracting business's profitability and operations.
• Avoiding the pitfalls of the traditional daily/hourly labor model for subcontractors
• Why a work order system that ties payment to completed work rather than time spent creates fairer partnerships
• The difference between general crews (kept busy 5 days/week) and specialized vendor crews (shared resources)
• How to structure your general subcontractor crews for maximum efficiency
• Techniques for finding, interviewing, and onboarding the right subcontractors
• Setting clear expectations about roles—execution vs customer management
• Using a ranking system to identify subcontractors' true strengths and weaknesses
• Preparing subcontractors to make more money while doing less administrative work
• The importance of building long-term partnerships with quality-focused vendors
