Time-Saving Efforts Are Gaining Popularity

Leading-edge developers are exploring new ways to speed up construction. In particular, they are implementing more efficient building processes and embracing the newest technologies. These time-saving efforts are generating multiple payoffs for developers who have attracted the right construction professionals to execute them.

Time-saving efforts are gaining popularity due to the increased construction work this decade has produced. A recent NAHB analysis of Census Bureau data concluded that the average time needed for a multifamily project lengthened by over 30% between 2013 to 2017, from 12 months to an average of 15.7 months.

Slash Your Time To Occupancy

Multifamily construction professionals with smarter ways to increase production are what companies need to lead the charge. Developers at the forefront are using proven building processes that work well alongside all parties involved. From start to finish, problems can be identified before they crop up in the field.

Ensure you have multifamily residential professionals implementing efficient building processes — starting with proficient scheduling for material drop-off and placement. Every possible misstep extends the project and slows progress. Waiting for instructions from a superintendent who, in turn, is awaiting orders wastes time. Across-the-board time-saving efforts can reduce 15% of wasted time of all hours on the job, if not more.

Cut Through The Noise With The Newport Group

Multifamily builders and developers are reporting a substantial need for talent around the country as shortages of labor increase. Construction superintendents and project managers with multifamily experience, including podium, wrap, and garden-style projects, are in high demand.

These employees are highly sought after and, therefore, represent the biggest talent shortage in the industry.
