Why does one small design change balloon your budget
1
Because the cost is the wait, not the work. Wages, supervision, rentals and overhead keep running while a crew stands by for a conflict to be resolved.

<p>Because the cost is the wait, not the work. Wages, supervision, rentals and overhead keep running while a crew stands by for a conflict to be resolved.</p>
<p>An unresolved clash can burn $15K to $50K a week in idle field labor. One that sat 47 days cost $28,000. The crew did nothing wrong. They were waiting on a decision that lived in someone's inbox.</p>
<p>The remedy is to give the decision a face and a deadline:</p>
<ul><li>Pin the issue to the element it blocks, with the sheet and revision that raised it.</li><li>Assign it to a tagged owner.</li><li>Let the 6am digest list it for that owner every morning.</li><li>Watch the project view to see which open items sit in front of scheduled work.</li></ul>
<p>BidLight runs inside Revit and Navisworks, so the issue sits on the geometry, not in a thread. And it closes only with a screenshot, a tagged user and the model commit that fixed it.</p>
<p>Resolve it in the model for about $50 and the crew never waits.</p>
