Productivity Improvement Consulting
Labor-intensive contractors live and die with their ability to effectively manage the largest controllable cost in their business -- labor. FMI's Productivity Builder® Process is a proven approach to helping contractors who are strategically committed to improving productivity. Using this four-step approach, many contractors are able to realize a five to 10 percent savings in their annual field labor costs, which in many cases results in a 50 to 100 percent improvement in the bottom line.
Project Management Consulting
Project management is the most crucial function within a construction organization. The long-term success of a company is entirely dependent on the effectiveness of its project management staff. FMI has developed a process to evaluate the effectiveness of your project management personnel and practices. Following the project management assessment, the greatest opportunities for improvement are prioritized and specific action plans to improve deficiencies are developed and executed.
Project Manager Academy
Our Project Manager Academy is quickly becoming the best known in the industry for teaching project managers how to think like entrepreneurs. The PMA is where talented builders become construction entrepreneurs. The techniques of managing projects are well-known. Training in scheduling, budgeting, and cost tracking is available from many sources. To graduate to the next level, your project staff must learn to think and act like business owners. When the projects break down, project managers have to feel as if they are bleeding their own money. This intense four-day experience will make your project managers become project leaders.
Project Partnering & Teambuilding
FMI is distinctly business-pragmatic in its approach to assisting teams in managing project risks. FMI's teambuilding process is focused on getting the right people together at the right time to make the right decisions that will directly impact the bottom-line project issues of safety, schedule, budget, and quality. FMI custom tailors its approach to the specific needs of each project to ensure that expectations are met and an appropriate return on investment is achieved for the participants. The fact that the majority of FMI's project delivery clients are repeat clients is a testimony to the value received from the services provided.
