Contractors are sitting on mountains of data… and most of it is about as useful as a broken laser level.
In this episode, Robert Zimmerman digs in with Dave Knowles, founder of TopBuilder and Contractor BI, to break down the real problem:
Contractors don’t have a data shortage.
They have a visibility problem.
We get into the messy stuff no one likes to admit out loud:
ERPs, job-cost systems, estimating platforms, and spreadsheets that don’t talk to each other.
Inaccurate reports that executives are forced to “trust anyway.”
Why builders still run multi-million-dollar companies with tools that can’t track a cost code without breaking a sweat.
How a real single source of truth can uncover trends long before they turn into cost overruns.
Dave explains how Contractor BI helps contractors finally see:
Real-time job performance
Profit fade before it becomes profit loss
Labor + materials trends
Forecasting gaps
Cash flow exposure on new bids
If your dashboards look like ransom notes made from four different systems, this episode is your fix.
