Is vendor/consulting onboarding administrative or evaluative? I’ve witnessed a subtle shift in onboarding portals away from purely informational fields to a stronger focus on qualifications.
I remember when I was a kid my Dad told me that math was his favorite subject in school “because there’s no opinion to it, the right answer is the right answer”. How I wish that were true in engineering problems.
I’ve always been a fan of precise language in proposals. Internally, it creates great back-check with our team: Did we deliver what we said we would? For clients, its purpose is more important. It sets clear expectations.
The most expensive MEP decisions happen before engineering starts. This may come as a surprise, or you may be saying “no-duh we’ve all seen the integrated Design Process graph of Project Timeline vs Effort and Impact”.
