This is the first guerrilla warfare guide and survival manual for construction professionals. It was written to help contractors--particularly small- to mid-sized contractors--come out on top in today's complex, competitive, crisis-a-minute construction trade. With its alphabetical organization, it provides quick, clear-cut, down-to-earth help with getting your projects done on time and within budget. This book knows that contractors don't have just one job--they have at least 20--and this guidebook is here to help with all of them, from estimating to dealing with legal issues--FAST. As a bonus, this survival guide provides useful reference aids and checklists for key functions you can use throughout the life of projects.
