HEY GC's!!! How do you communicate your jobs/WO's to your subs?

[Meghan Martinez]

Curious how other contractors communicate job specs to their subs.

[Emilio Ramirez]

depends on the project and sophistication of the sub...

1. Plan and spec

2. Written SOW w bid form

3. Some subs can receive via email,some text, some hard copy.

4. Walk thru with verbal direction.

5. I use google drive.. lots of paid options including builders trend, coconstruct, etc.

6. In addition to scope of work you should walk them thru your expectations, job site clean up, safety, handling materials, assisting in take offs if needed, recommendations, work hours, crew size, duration, schedule, payment, payment process, warranty, equipment operation, etc...
