How Lisa Moves on a Tight Package.
Fast Glulam Recovery
- Challenge
- A GC needed approximately 140 LF of custom glulam inside a four-day window after a standard six-week lead time put the schedule at risk.
- Lisa's Move
- Checked alternate mills, confirmed acceptable substitutions, coordinated pricing, documentation, and delivery timing.
- Result
- Material was sourced and delivered in time for the framing sequence.
Multi-Family Framing Reset
- Challenge
- A multifamily project needed framing lumber, I-joists, rimboard, sheathing, and connectors quoted together after piecemeal pricing created gaps.
- Lisa's Move
- Built a clean package quote, identified alternates, and coordinated supply through one commercial channel.
- Result
- The contractor received a clear package number and fewer procurement handoffs.
Fire-Treated Specialty Sourcing
- Challenge
- A light-commercial buildout required fire-treated material that was not available through the contractor's usual supplier timeline.
- Lisa's Move
- Used specialty sourcing relationships to locate compliant material and confirm documentation before release.
- Result
- The project team avoided a material delay and had the paperwork needed for approval.
