After reading this case study I took a few things from it. A lot of mistakes were happening early on with construction that the General Contractor was aware of, so the GC should’ve stopped the work before wasting more money. There has been a lot of miscommunication between all the workers that could’ve been avoided. Since the GC didn’t stop the work, there’s going to be more money and more work to be done. There was also a point where the architect forgot to attach a directional document, so again the GC should’ve stopped the work, but didn’t. Overall I think miscommunication between the GC and sub-contractors was a major issue and a simple solution was to just stop the work, gather all the workers and figure out what’s going on and inform the owner for further instruction.
