// LESSONS FROM Rice Contracting Ltd.
Name the 10 clients you want, spend 80% of business development on them, and keep 20% of the door open.
Early-stage contractors should chase opportunities to bid, not handouts — resilience and pestering earn the chance.
Long-tenured superintendents are the culture: they onboard newcomers and recruit by telling people they are treated well.
Construction management works when owner, design team, CM and lender collaborate transparently from project inception.
When one sub bid lands far below the field, qualify the risk and make the client co-own the decision to take it.
Sub-trade pricing validity has collapsed to days, making carried numbers in lump-sum bids a live risk to manage.
