The Contractor's Playbook: A Practical Guide to Contracts, Costing, Planning, Scheduling and Project Execution

By Gilbert Simukanga

Most construction projects don't fail because of bad workmanship.
They fail because of bad systems.

The Contractor's Playbook is a straight-talking, practical guide to
winning, pricing, planning, and delivering construction projects
profitably - from the first drawing review to final account.

Inside, you'll find field-tested methods for reading drawings and
Bills of Quantities, building accurate estimates, choosing the right
tenders, scheduling realistically, controlling cost on site, managing
risk, handling variations and claims, and staying on top of contract
administration from start to finish.

Whether you run small residential jobs or manage large infrastructure
works, this book gives you a repeatable system - not just theory -
for delivering projects on time, on budget, and to the standard your
reputation depends on.

Practical. Direct. Built for contractors who want to build a business,
not just complete projects.
