To some of you, welcome to the Web version of Roofing Contractor. To many of you, welcome back. To all of you, thanks for reading Roofing Contractor and for putting up with this unvarnished bit of self-promotion for our Web site. But that is the point of this note: self-promotion.
The term “value engineering” is
one I have heard spoken by commercial roofing contractors as long as I
can remember. In this context it is a fairly straightforward process
whereby a given design or specification for a roofing system is pulled
apart, analyzed, and reconstructed in order to achieve more bang for
the owner’s buck. In an economy with more than a few challenges, it
would seem a good idea for all of us in the roofing industry to
consider turning our value engineering skills inward. In other words,
should your enterprise be constructed differently to meet the
challenges of 2008 and beyond?
