THE PROBLEM
Winning work is the easy part. Resourcing it is harder.
Good drafters, estimators and engineers are hard to find in Australia, and harder to keep. When the pipeline fills up, your senior engineers end up doing drawing revisions, takeoffs and project admin instead of design and client work.
Tenders slip
Estimates wait because nobody has time to do the takeoffs.
Seniors get stuck
Your most expensive people spend hours on markups and revisions.
Hiring locally is slow
Months of recruiting for one role, with no guarantee they'll stay.
