Good conflict resolution is as critical a skill for a construction worker onsite as their technical skills in their trade, but the study suggests that specialty trade contractors, in particular, rarely experience good resolution from these conflicts. Only 38% believe that everyone involved understands what is being communicated, and 48% find that everyone agrees on the next steps and future actions in most of their conflicts with other companies, a sharp contrast to the general contractors (50% and 69%, respectively).<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Improving Multi-Trade Coordination Can Improve Project Performance<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Effective coordination among the multiple trade contractors onsite is essential to conflict reduction, and there is still significant room for improvement. In fact, 33% of contractors find that coordination issues on site are the root cause of the construction quality challenges they experience. Coordination issues have a major impact on projects, including challenges with cost performance, labor resource management, schedule compliance, and company profit margin erosion. Such coordination issues lead to an average 9% budget increase and an average of 10% erosion in annual company profit margin.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Good Collaboration Is at the Heart of a Successful Project<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Contractors understand that collaboration is critical to addressing the challenges experienced on construction sites, with 96% agreeing that active collaboration improves projects. However, when six specific approaches to actively fostering collaborative behaviors were tested in the survey, only 18% report using more than three of those measures. Even the two most effective approaches-implementing policies and procedures that promote collaboration and investing in technology that supports collaboration-were only used by 43% and 50%, respectively. This suggests a major opportunity for contractors to actively invest in improving collaboration, especially since those who have already made those investments experience fewer construction quality issues and better conflict resolution, and over 90% of the contractors surveyed want to work with companies they know have made these investments.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Field Professionals Need Better Tools to Drive Coordination<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The findings show that only 11% of field personnel report always having access to the information they need about what and where to build on projects. Fewer than one-third of field personnel used BIM for coordination, conveying design intent or clarification during jobsite project team meetings. And currently, 90% of contractors utilize manual means like chalk lines for layout, but strikingly, many are open to a better solution. While automated layout is still an emerging technology, used by only 4% currently, nearly six times as many (34%) would consider using this technology in the future.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Download\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.construction.com\/resource\/not-by-design-the-true-cost-of-poor-collaboration\/\"><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">Not By Design: The<\/span><\/i><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0<\/span><b><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">True Cost of Poor Collaboration <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/a>SmartMarket Brief<span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0today to get more detailed information on the challenges that contractors experience onsite and the potential solutions they can utilize to address them.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:150,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.construction.com\/resource\/not-by-design-the-true-cost-of-poor-collaboration\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26246 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.construction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Dodge-Report-Cover-300x232.jpg\" alt=\"Dodge Report Cover\" width=\"556\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.construction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Dodge-Report-Cover-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.construction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Dodge-Report-Cover.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 556px) 100vw, 556px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>About Dusty Robotics<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Dusty Robotics is the best solution to ensure design integrity in the field through automated layout and a streamlined BIM-to-field process.
