New Resource: The Blueprint for Workforce Management

RIVET recently released a Workforce Management guide for mechanical contractors. This free eBook is the result of hundreds of contractors sharing their experiences.

Article content provided by RIVET.

The WFM Blueprint provides a framework for labor efficiency: the #1 profit and loss driver on projects. If you’re routinely experiencing profit loss in the last 20% of your projects, you’re not alone. The good news is it’s avoidable.

  1. Create a labor plan with a resource profile.
  2. Monitor the labor plan on a weekly basis.
  3. Conduct an Earn Value Analysis (EVA) monthly.
  4. Reconcile and align the Labor Plan with the EVA.


With this approach you’ll know when you’re hitting your labor peak, and you can stabilize your WIP. The Blueprint covers how to bring discipline to company labor processes, evaluate the need for software and align project forecasts to your workforce.
