“how do you build people well you have to put them on a pathway of success”
“there's been a couple of buildings that burnt because they were using torches”
“so like when we start the job we fill out the warranty if we're doing a total system warranty”
“we've really haven't been bidding the tendered stuff as much anymore”
“sort of like the Vegas Knights you take all the Misfits and championship team”

// LESSONS FROM Arrow Construction Products Limited
Join the union once you already exceed their standards — let them run the benefits and training infrastructure you were building anyway.
Entering a trade niche with a single product system (no alternatives) forces focus and builds genuine expertise faster than trying to compete across all formats.
Spend two years working budgets and details with a GC before a tender is issued — early engagement converts relationships into awarded contracts on large complex jobs.
Cross-train roofing and cladding crews so they can shift between scopes — it extends your employment year to 12 months and creates a more flexible, loyal workforce.
Single-ply roofing requires roughly half the crew of torch-on two-ply for equivalent coverage — in a labour shortage, the system that needs fewer people wins.
Avoid racing to the bottom on school tenders — thin margins and government specs combine to make schools consistently unprofitable for specialty subcontractors.
