    What K-12 Leaders Can Learn from Alternative Delivery Construction Projects

    Over the years, Director of Purchasing Gary Kerbow has been tasked with daunting construction projects when helping Hurst Euless Bedford ISD expand. Once, the board of trustees needed a recently acquired building up and running as quickly as possible, but copper thieves had looted the entire infrastructure, requiring extensive rewiring. Another time, Gary had to determine the full scope of repairs when creating offices for new management staff in an existing warehouse space. Most construction veterans would consider these requests near impossible, and they would be if Gary didn’t have certain procedures and tools in place. In this podcast, Gary will speak about the lessons he’s learned from these and other projects at a number of school districts in North Texas. Key Takeaways: o What superintendents need to know when assigning similar time-sensitive tasks o Best practices for vetting vendors to ensure difficult projects are completed on time o When procurement directors need to reconsider where and how they procure critical parts o How staffing levels and needs impact renovation/construction projects o How to streamline construction projects through collaboration and communication o Ways to innovate the scope of work for all contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers Speakers Gary Kerbow, Director of Purchasing, Hurst Euless Bedford ISD 817-399-2036 garykerbow@hebisd.edu Will Leisure, Account Manager, Gordian w.leisure@gordian.com 817-964-7441 RESOURCES K12 Contact: K12Team@gordian.com https://www.gordian.com/solutions/industry/k-12/
