Managing employees on just one construction project can be a challenge, so it’s no surprise that managing employees across multiple construction sites is an even bigger challenge. Every site has a team of employees you need to stay on top of, along with schedules, budgets, technicalities, and specific needs.
Common problems that managers can face when dealing with multi-site construction projects include overrunning construction costs, late delivery, and mismanagement that can result in lower quality for your clients.
These problems, along with many others that you can face on multi-site construction projects, often stem from, in part or whole, communication issues. Communication is a key part of any successful construction project, and it is all the more important when dealing with multi-site construction projects.
