Multifamily Residential
9 Months Behind. $1 Million in Carrying Costs. One Phone Call Away from Bad to Worse.
9-storey multifamily apartment building, 72 units. Schedule concerns flagged 11 months into a 24-month schedule. Contractor kept reporting they would get things back on track. By month 16, works were 9 months behind, subcontractor coordination had broken down and quality non-conformance reports (NCRs) were accumulating with marginal response from the main contractor.
