Mike's Blueprint for Profit: How a General Contractor Built a Better Business
For Mike, a project manager, his business is an intricate web of dependencies. Every day is a high-stakes balancing act between managing teams, securing materials, and staying on budget. But with a chaotic system of scattered emails and spreadsheets, he’s always a step behind. He can't quickly confirm if a subcontractor's insurance is still current, if a specific payment milestone has been met across different jobs, or if he's being overcharged by a supplier on one project while getting a discount on another. This lack of central oversight means that performance discrepancies and financial surprises are a frustratingly common occurrence, eating into his profits and adding to his feeling of being overwhelmed.
Mike knows that his contracts aren’t just paperwork; they're the core of his business. He needs a system that provides a holistic, real-time view of every obligation, from payment schedules to compliance documents. A powerful AI contract management and analysis tool like ContractSage gives him that control. It acts as a central command center, automatically tracking every key term and deadline across all his projects. He can instantly verify a subcontractor's compliance status, track the performance of a vendor, and ensure every milestone is met and billed correctly. By turning a mess of documents into a source of actionable data, Mike can finally regain control, minimize risk, and build a more profitable business.
