[AUDIO] Crew Foreman…Study Your Job Folder

At the very heart of better work, safer work, more profitable work, is to do our jobs right, the first time. A huge key to this happening is to have your PMs, and Estimators, pull together the Job Folders correctly, and have each Foreman committed to reading through their Job Folder.
