The ProfitDig guys talk about the importance of daily jobsite documentation. Jeff Spencer talks about using contractors' daily diaries to document information such as jobsite conditions, weather, or any other factors that might affect the work that gets done on a particular day. This information is invaluable in situations such as a court case. You need to be able to explain what happened on a particular day, or set of days.

ProfitDig's Jeff Spencer discusses his invoicing strategies to make sure that you have the draws you need to pay the job bills along the way while maintaining healthy profit at the end of the job. Avoid overly aggressive billing! If you bill too aggressively, you may very well find yourself out of money by the end of the job and forced to pay expenses out of pocket.

ProfitDig's Jeff Spencer and Jeff Givens talk about power quality.

As Jeff Givens explains, the U.S. is divided into three major grids, and generation of power is based on the demand by homes and businesses within those grids. Generated power has to align with the demands on the grid. Non-linear sources of power for drives, motors and electrical equipment wreak havoc on the quality of power that comes into your home or business.

When companies sign an agreement with a particular energy provider, they have expectations with regard to the quality of power coming into their locations. Different municipalities will have different power requirements as well. Poor power quality can cause damage to your equipment, so having a better understanding of your power needs will help you maintain that equipment.

The guys talk about all subcontractors. If you are bidding on work that you do not self-perform, you will require subcontractors. A good subcontractor is hard to find, especially in a hot market. Having a well-established relationship with a subcontractor will help immensely. A sub is essentially an employee of the GC, so good relationships are critical.

ProfitDig's Jeff Spencer is a highly experienced Project Manager and former company owner, so learn from his wisdom in the latest ProfitDig video.
