MCA Vol IV Ebook

Do you know what is needed to ensure your company gets stable through this pandemic?

Staying at home and practicing “Social Distancing” is socially responsible and might be your personal contribution to mitigate the proliferation of the COVID-19. However, sudden shutdowns of construction sites as we have seen in Boston and San Francisco, as well as close downs of entire businesses have or will leave also you and your business with a lot of unplanned work behind. This work will come at you sooner rather than later once the situation has calmed down and life turns back to normal. Now is the time to get your business ready and plan for the necessary steps following the coronavirus pandemic.

– What you do today will determine how this year ends for your business –

The jobs will fall behind and you will most likely be faced with:

• Employees not prepared or equipped to work and collaborate with each other from home
• Schedule delays and compression
• Trade stacking and productivity losses
• Shortage of skilled labor will be aggravated
• Supply shortage and material delays
• Increasing project cost that the GCs/customers are not expecting/able to pay

Like most business owners, you didn’t see this coming and you aren’t quite sure how to manage and mitigate the negative impacts that the current situation has on your business. Now is the time to get your business ready and plan for the necessary steps ahead after the coronavirus pandemic.

For years, MCA has been teaching and helping companies start Externalizing Work® as part of becoming an agile contractor. Now, the need for you, as a contractor, to think broader than prefabrication and vendor services management to support your project and business has come even quicker and more suddenly than ever expected.

In the desire to support you and your business during this time of high uncertainty, MCA will be hosting a free online interactive webinar aimed to help you plan and prepare you, your key employees, and your business for remote work, and the upcoming challenges.
