Im part of a small electrical contracting firm with 8 guys in the field. Im supposed to PM projects and estimate.
Although most of my time spent is "babysitting" guys in the field.
As we all know good help is HARD to find so you have to work with what you have.
My question is how are your companies setup as far as chain of command goes. I want to organize/enforce a system where most of the less important questions concerns get "funnelled" through
the "chain of command" before they get to me (or dont which is the point) so that I can focus on bringing in new work and building relationships with potential customers.
IMO the BEST solution to this is haveing the right guys in the field but like I said unfortunately this is not always a luxury we have. How have you guys who have been doing this for a while addressed this:?
