Productivity-Improvement ConsultingLabor-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 5 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 ConsultingProject 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. Construction Supervisor AcademyConstruction company executives know profitability of construction jobs is made or lost in the field. The efficiency and effectiveness of the front-line field supervisor optimizes the job site, motivates the field forces and facilitates collaboration with project staff. These are vital characteristics to any construction project's success. We encourage construction trade and general contractors, supervisors, superintendents, general foremen and foremen, those key people in the field, to attend this intensive three-day experiential training program.

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.
