Introduce Yourself
I'm keen to hear who everybody is, and what their goals are I assume you already know who I am. But if you don't I'm Tim. I worked for 8 years for big contractors on road, rail, renewable energy projects. I've always worked for head-contractors. I recently worked for some smaller contractors as a consultant when I left my job doing estimating and contract management. It was good, but I found it hard to see a path to scale (other than just starting a contracting business myself) So I instead decided to build software, and found that that's 100x harder than I thought and a very easy way to lose money

@Alexander Fraser Welcome, Alexander! First, congratulations on earning your PRINCE2 Foundation certification and CIOB accreditation, those are strong credentials that already set you apart. One advantage you have is that you're not transitioning from scratch. Your plumbing and construction background gives you practical site experience that many project managers spend years trying to develop. The technical knowledge combined with project management skills can be a powerful combination in MEP environments. As for AI, I've been noticing that it's not necessarily replacing experienced professionals, it seems to be increasing the value of those who can combine technical expertise, communication and decision-making with the right tools. Besides, are you finding the biggest challenge is getting your first MEP Project Management opportunity, or is it understanding which new skills employers are expecting candidates to have today? I'm truly happy to connect and exchange ideas as we navigate these changes together @Alexander Fraser

Have you also noticed this in construction…?
The companies growing the fastest aren’t always the best builders, they’re usually the best organized. Clean communication, tighter follow-ups, better planning, smarter workflows… those little things stack up fast. Big respect to @Tim Fairley for creating a space where people can share real lessons instead of gatekeeping knowledge 👏 By the way, What’s one change that improved the way your projects or business run?

Wow... That’s really an impressive mix of expertise @George Khalil. Structural, Civil, Geotech and PM together gives such a strong perspective on projects from both the technical and practical side. I’ll definitely check it out. Anyway, I’m always passionate about growth, sharing ideas and learning from people with real industry experience like this.

What AI Do You Use?
Hey everyone! I run ContractorOS with Tim and we're trying to get an idea of what AI you actually use? Claude has continued to be my go-to for a number of reasons but I understand many of you might have limitations with what you can actually use like if you are restricted to Copilot with your company or just prefer others.

I think most people are still figuring out which AI actually fits their workflow best 😅 A lot of tools are impressive, but the real difference is how practical they are for day-to-day work. I’ve seen more people lean toward AI that helps simplify thinking and communication rather than just generate content tho...

I built a simple scheduling app
Hey everybody As a fun experiment and because I thought Microsoft project was too annoying I built a really simple scheduling app. It allows you to do gantt charts, activity dependencies, etc. I will be adding to it and improving it. Its completely free, keen to hear your feebback https://operumscheduling.com/

Ehiii.... I love seeing people build tools from real frustrations. If it makes scheduling simpler and less frustrating than MS Project then, that’s already a win 😅 I'm excited to see how it grows.
