The Exciting World of Insurance Compliance - Make it stand out The color coding, which is usually established by a code internal to the compliance monitor’s system, helps quickly identify the issue and the report would be accompanied with a coding key such as follows: Green = Vendor is in the system and compliant for this project Yellow = Vendor is in the system and not yet compliant (compliance under review or compliance monitor in process of contacting vendor for updated insurance certificate) Orange = Vendor is in the system, non-compliant and non-responsive Red = Vendor is not yet in the system Naturally, this report can also include relevant data internal to the developer to assist with management (such as responsible manager or project team). The advantage of constant monitoring by a third-party vendor is that insurance certificates are only typically written for a single year. Therefore, unless the vendor proactively updates their insurance and sends that insurance of their own volition to the developer or the monitoring service just before the expiration of the old policy, the developer may never know that the vendor is operating under expired insurance. One of the challenges to the third-party monitoring system is highlighted by the Orange category. The monitoring service is dependent upon the vendor contact information provided by the developer at the time the contract is executed and relevant paperwork submitted (typically a W9 and the Insurance Certificate). The vendor contact may be the individual with whom the team had been working, which may be the owner of the company or one of their project managers. Generally, these are the last people within the vendor’s organization who can provide updated insurance information. They may ignore the calls by the monitoring service, a service they have likely never heard of, or believe their calls to be spam. This is why having a cross-pollinated compliance report such as the above, including the developer’s responsible team member is needed. Typically, an internal team member managing the vendor relationship is best suited to communicate the specific insurance need to the vendor. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/articles/selecting-the-best-construction-contract monthly 0.5 2025-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/2eb73c76-9859-496e-afd8-999b6c5af64d/Screenshot+2024-11-12+at+10.38.24%E2%80%AFAM.png Articles - Selecting the Best Construction Contract - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/articles/root-causes-how-to-define-and-use monthly 0.5 2025-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/db172d5b-84ee-40a3-8faf-50e2784f7314/1697942422296.jpeg Articles - Root Causes… How to define and use - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/ac990d2c-aa2e-4407-afcf-dfe035c47dea/Screenshot+2024-05-31+at+8.25.21%E2%80%AFAM.png Articles - Root Causes… How to define and use - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/857867fa-6976-41ca-929a-802d7524924a/Screenshot+2024-05-31+at+10.47.39%E2%80%AFAM.png Articles - Root Causes… How to define and use - Make it stand out This table is an example of how one might summarize change order costs and their respective root causes for multiple projects. This kind of reporting can, of course, be visualized in a pareto or other chart should one want dashboard type reporting. The important takeaway is to review preventable change orders such as owner directed “Design Driven” costs to see if improved processes can prevent their occurence. One may also analyze Allowance overages to see if there may be ways to improve their projection. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/articles/the-mighty-s-curve monthly 0.5 2025-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/832faffc-46be-4958-9cc0-1d1accdfdee1/Screenshot+2024-05-24+at+9.22.09%E2%80%AFAM.png Articles -

Relating Time and Money in Construction - Make it stand out While this metric can be calculated for a single project, if a developer conducts many similar projects, it is likely best to calculate an average number for two or more projects and use the same number for them all. This will help both internal and external team members maintain a baseline figure in their head for an intuitive understanding of the value of time at any moment, without the need to perform a complex calculation. For instance, for many of the recent multifamily projects our clients have performed, where an average unit size might be between 1,000 SF and 1,100 SF, the number of units ranged from 250 to 400, and rents were around the $2.50 per SF, this daily rate worked out to be $1,000 per day. Therefore, the negative financial impact for a one-month delay to the project was approximately $300,000. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/8161e6e3-f256-4717-ad3a-1723e3d14d95/Screenshot+2024-05-03+at+3.54.54%E2%80%AFPM.png Articles - Relating Time and Money in Construction - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/9acd522a-2682-4384-92a9-4c09436d6285/Screenshot+2025-03-28+at+4.17.39%E2%80%AFPM.png Articles - Relating Time and Money in Construction - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/articles/blog-post-two-w2zgd monthly 0.5 2025-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/6922a8d6-2c78-4507-a17b-f732ea820428/values-cloud-2a.png Articles - Establish Core Cultural Principles https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/004c840a-45fe-425e-9fdb-5e6598cb552a/Screenshot+2025-03-28+at+5.00.35%E2%80%AFPM.png Articles - Establish Core Cultural Principles - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/articles/blog-post-one-dek98 monthly 0.5 2025-03-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/13a582f4-3dc6-41ce-a3f7-f9d4925edfe2/Meeting-engineer.jpg Articles - Does Internalizing General Contracting Work for your Business? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/5dfc8cd8-429d-48ca-8baf-5045cc2b27a3/Screenshot+2025-03-30+at+1.06.26%E2%80%AFPM.png Articles - Does Internalizing General Contracting Work for your Business? - Make it stand out A general breakdown of costs for a commercial multifamily development as a % of total spend. https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/home daily 1.0 2025-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/9f025a04-c2a2-4076-9c5e-afecf6412a59/Tools-16.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/59ff476e-36c7-4b4d-8a3c-e89c01d7052a/hero-construction-excavator.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/68b70db6-5c50-44ac-b2ab-a81b94e36150/construction_trends_bimcommunity.jpg https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/our-vision daily 0.75 2024-05-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6633ed0fa5d57d2aa55a3777/c790bb35-8167-4541-b7c6-604387b747b6/5573aa1e-ff65-488b-908b-53d545c93cb9.jpg https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/a-different-approach daily 0.75 2024-05-07 https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/materials-for-learning daily 0.75 2024-05-07 https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/support-for-your-business daily 0.75 2024-05-07 https://www.visionbuildinsights.com/contact daily 0.75 2024-05-07
