What You Will Learn
Have you ever wondered what you should expect from a contractor and what a contractor expects from a designer during the design and build process?
Join designer and licensed contractor, LaDonna Eriksen, as she guides you to understand the interesting dynamics of the relationship between designers and contractors (ie: selections, purchasing, billing, etc.). Once you have your team developed, it becomes a well-oiled machine which allows projects to flow easily because everyone is on the same page and works together for the same successful outcome.
During this session, you will:
- Create a list of expectations between the designer and contractor to set yourself up for success.
- Learn to analyze the relationship between designer, contractor, and client.
- Discuss the division of labor between the designer and contractors.
