Job Cost Control and Labor Tracking
Maintaining financial control over a job is one of the most talked about and least understood areas of construction management. Frequent costing errors and earnings surprises are very disruptive to the contractor’s organization. In addition to the more obvious financial impacts of these earnings surprises, is the potentially more destructive impact to creditability with bonding company and banking relationships. Over the years the Sutor Group has assisted contractors and their project managers to gain a better understanding of job cost control; successfully integrating cost controls into the more traditional project management functions. more >
Project Management
Project management is truly where the proverbial “rubber meets the road” in the contractor organization. It is essential that the project manager be adequately supported with effective estimating, equipment, accounting, field personnel, sound processes and upper management. The Sutor Group provides assistance to the project manager in the development of effective management routines and processes. more >
Estimating
Proper job selection and sound estimating practices set the stage for a successful job outcome. Even the most skilled project management often fails to salvage a job that is the product of poor estimating practices. Consistent performance requires sound estimating. The Sutor Group companies assist our clients in numerous aspects of the estimating process. more >
Equipment Costing
The equipment fleet can quickly become the “money pit.” For many contractors the investment in equipment consumes more equity than any other group of assets. Sound management practices can be a significant aid in keeping a contractor competitive during difficult times. Through years of experience with “heavy & highway” and utility contractors, The Sutor Group has found that effective fleet management is a distinguishing factor among highly successful contractors. more >
