Beyond Low Bid

What’s the most important factor when you award a project to a subcontractor?  Is it the lowest bid or a good safety record or the capacity and knowledge to handle the work?  We understand the pressures that exist to control costs and protect profit margins but, what does it cost you if that low bid contractor doesn’t perform.  Poor safety, quality and productivity performance by a subcontractor can adversely impact the overall project schedule and budget. 

J&L Steel Erectors offers you a complete package.  Our team brings value to your project in the form of constructability input, proactive field coordination, timely change order management, accurate billing and safe work practices.  Your project management team will spend significantly less time managing our scope of work. Our past clients can speak to the value that J&L Steel delivers on every project
