Description

The single greatest challenge for Swimming Pool Contractors (SOC) to expand their business is the lack of competent and accountable Construction Managers and Superintendents.  Although helpful, being an engineer, a skilled craftsman, or having pool industry experience is helpful, it is certainly not a prerequisite to becoming a quality superintendent.  The likely candidate is trained!  

In this course, we will explore what makes a good Construction Superintendent and how they are an integral part of running a profitable business that provides quality work in a timely period with "reasonable" or greater client satisfaction of the product result.

Learning Objectives:

Define the need for a functional organization structure, whether the organization is a one-person operation or a team of many.
Learn and understand why establishing policies and procedures will make the organization more reliable, more manageable, and consistently successful.
Provide insight and training for basic managerial functions, making you more effective in a managing supervisor role.
Identify the subfunctions performed by the construction management team and why they are essential to the operational success of the organization.
Provide guidelines for the superintendent and field oversight to ensure accountability and product quality.
Introduce guidelines to establish a job opening procedure for launching a project in a predictable and reliable manner.
Establish a job closeout procedure to achieve project completion and transfer of ownership responsibility to the client.
