Like all others, the construction industry is awash with all types of contractors. They range from half-baked to professionals who deliver varying results when selected to undertake projects. Here are three types of contractors who mess up construction projects and the possible reasons why this happens.
- Those who do shoddy work
Reasons:
– They have little or no prior experience
– They have few resources
– They did not understand the deliverables
– There was no proper supervision by project owner or representative
– Project owner or supervisor and the contractor always at loggerheads
2. Those who won’t complete a project on time
Reasons:
– They ran short of cash or other resources
– They have other projects elsewhere and are trying to balance time and resources at your expense
– They underquoted and are finding it hard to complete the work in accordance with the bid
– The have unreliable personnel
3. Those who deliver nothing close to what they undertook
Reasons:
– They cut corners to save their costs
– They did not have adequate experience on this kind of project
– The project owner did not provide adequate resources.
