SMACNA wants to hear from supply-chain stakeholders about the practice’s impact on the MEP trades.

SMACNA has launched a brief survey to gather input from all construction supply-chain stakeholders regarding issues related to trade stacking, particularly between MEP trades and interior wall framing.

This survey was created on behalf of SMACNA members to capture the real pain points you're experiencing on job sites. By sharing your experiences, you're helping us better understand the impact of poor trade sequencing and its effects on productivity, safety, and project flow.
