Why Gut-Feel Labor Planning Isn’t Sustainable
Reactive labor decisions are a hidden margin killer.
They happen fast—usually by instinct. But they ignore how staffing affects your curve, productivity, and profit. It’s time to move from feel-based calls to fact-based planning.
The most successful contractors don’t just plan—they model, communicate, and revisit labor decisions with discipline. They align ops, field, and leadership with visibility into what’s coming.
