This Podcast Is Episode 632, And It's About Navigating Job Site Challenges For Small Construction Businesses As a small construction business owner, you're not just a builder; you're a problem-solver, a negotiator, a project manager, and often, the first one on-site and the last one to leave. While the vision for a completed project is always clear, the path to getting there is often paved with unforeseen challenges, daily inconveniences, and persistent problems.   I've seen it time and again from my vantage point, both as a previous construction business owner and now a construction bookkeeping specialist: these job site issues, if left unchecked, don't just delay projects – they eat into profits, strain client relationships, and can even jeopardize the future of your business. But here's the good news: recognizing common pitfalls is the first step to conquering them.   1. The Relentless March of Labor Shortages The U.S. construction industry is grappling with a significant shortage of skilled labor. Finding qualified carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and other tradespeople can be a constant headache, leading to project delays, increased labor costs, and a struggle to take on new work. How to Handle It: Invest in Training & Apprenticeships: Partner with local trade schools, community colleges, or established apprenticeship programs. Grow your talent by investing in on-the-job training for less experienced workers. Competitive Compensation & Benefits: Review your wage scales and benefits package. Offering competitive pay, health insurance, and retirement plans can significantly improve attraction and retention in a tight labor market. Employee Referrals: Encourage your current, trusted employees to refer candidates by offering a bonus for successful hires. Cross-Training: Train your existing crew members on multiple tasks to increase their versatility and cover gaps when a specific skill is in short supply. Utilize Technology for Efficiency: Leverage project management software to optimize scheduling and minimize wasted labor hours, maximizing the productivity of your existing workforce. 2. Escalating Material Costs & Supply Chain Disruptions From lumber and steel to concrete and specialized components, material prices can fluctuate significantly, and supply chain issues can lead to frustrating delays. This unpredictability makes accurate bidding and project profitability a constant challenge. How to Handle It: Early & Bulk Ordering: When feasible, order materials well in advance, especially for items with long lead times or volatile prices. Consider bulk purchasing when storage and cash flow allow. Multiple Supplier Relationships: Cultivate strong relationships with several suppliers. Having backup options is crucial for urgent needs or when your primary supplier faces delays. Price Escalation Clauses: Include clauses in your contracts that allow for price adjustments if material costs exceed a certain percentage, protecting your profit margins from sudden spikes. Explore Alternatives: Be open to using alternative materials or construction methods that offer cost savings or improved availability without compromising quality or code compliance. Real-time Cost Tracking: Utilize robust accounting and project management software to track material costs in real-time against your budget, enabling quick adjustments. 3. Navigating the Regulatory Maze: OSHA, Permitting, & Local Codes The U.S. construction industry is heavily regulated, with strict rules from federal agencies such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), as well as complex state and local permitting and building codes. Non-compliance can result in substantial fines, project delays, and legal liabilities. How to Handle It: Prioritize Safety (OSHA Compliance): Implement a comprehensive safety program to ensure compliance with OSHA regulations and maintain a safe work environment. Conduct regular safety meetings (toolbox talks), provide proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), and ensure all workers are trained on OSHA regulations relevant to their tasks. Regular site inspections are key. Dedicated Compliance Officer: For larger businesses, consider designating a team member to be responsible for staying up-to-date on all relevant regulations and ensuring compliance. Permit Proactiveness: Start the permitting process early. Understand the specific requirements of each municipality you work in, as these can vary significantly. Consult Experts: Don't hesitate to consult with legal counsel, an experienced construction bookkeeper, or a safety consultant to ensure full compliance. Documentation is Key: Maintain meticulous records of all safety training, inspections, permits, and communications with regulatory bodies. 4. Poor Communication & Coordination Among Stakeholders Construction projects involve numerous moving parts: your crew, subcontractors, suppliers, architects, engineers, inspectors, and, of course, the client. Miscommunication or a lack of coordination can lead to costly errors, delays, and friction. How to Handle It: Implement Project Management Software: Utilize software designed explicitly for construction that enables centralized communication, scheduling, document sharing, and progress tracking, accessible to all relevant parties. Daily Huddles & Weekly Meetings: Conduct brief daily huddles with your on-site team to review tasks, address immediate concerns, and assign responsibilities. Hold weekly meetings with key subcontractors and the client for larger updates. Transparent Chains of Command: Define who is responsible for what and establish clear reporting lines to ensure accountability. Documentation of Decisions: Follow up verbal discussions with written summaries (emails or notes in your project management system) to avoid "he said, she said" disputes. Manage Client Expectations: Set realistic expectations from the outset regarding timelines, budget, and potential challenges. Implement a formal change order process for any scope adjustments. 5. Cash Flow Challenges & Budget Overruns Delayed payments from clients, unexpected expenses, and inaccurate cost tracking can quickly lead to cash flow issues and projects spiraling over budget, jeopardizing your business's financial stability. How to Handle It: Accurate Job Costing: This is my wheelhouse! Implement a robust job costing system that tracks every expense (labor, materials, equipment, subs) against specific projects. This helps you identify where money is being spent and where you might be losing profitability. Detailed & Realistic Bidding: Don't underbid to win a project. Include a reasonable contingency fund (typically 10-15%) for unforeseen issues. Progress Billing: Structure your contracts to allow for progress payments based on milestones achieved. This ensures a steady inflow of cash as work progresses. Aggressive Invoice Follow-Up: Don't let invoices sit unpaid. Have a straightforward process for following up with clients on outstanding payments. Leverage Technology: Utilize accounting software integrated with your project management tools to automate invoicing, track receivables, and monitor cash flow in real time. Building Success, One Solution at a Time Being a small construction business owner in the U.S. is not for the faint of heart. The challenges are significant, but they are not insurmountable. By proactively addressing these common job site problems with thoughtful planning, clear communication, strategic technology adoption, and a strong financial management system, you'll not only overcome obstacles but also build a more resilient, reputable, and profitable construction company that stands strong for years to come. Your foundation for success is built not just on steel and concrete but on sound operational and financial practices. P.S. We wish our construction community fathers a "Happy Father's Day" this coming weekend for being actual builders, both at work and at home! Your dedication to your craft inspires those around you, and the strength you show on the job site mirrors the strength you provide to your family. Thanks for laying a solid foundation of love, support, and hard work in our lives. Enjoy your special day—you've earned it!

Did the Supreme Court just make it easier to build things in this country — or did it give a once-in-a-lifetime gift to the fossil fuel industry? Last week, the Supreme Court ruled 8-0 against environmentalists who sought to use a key permitting law, the National Environmental Policy Act, to slow down a railroad in a remote but oil-rich part of Utah. Even the court's liberals ruled against the green groups. But the court's conservative majority issued a much stronger and more expansive ruling, urging lower courts to stop interpreting the law as they have for years. That decision, written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, may signal a new era for what has been called the “Magna Carta” of environmental law.On this week's episode of Shift Key, Rob and Jesse talk with Nicholas Bagley, a University of Michigan law professor and frequent writer on permitting issues. He is also Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer's former chief legal counsel. Rob, Jesse, and Nick discuss what NEPA is, how it has helped (and perhaps hindered) the environment, and why it's likely to change again in the near future. Shift Key is hosted by Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University, and Robinson Meyer, Heatmap's executive editor.

America's infrastructure future isn't being decided in Washington—it's being fought permit by permit in state capitals across the country. While politicians talk about building more, the real bottlenecks are happening where rubber meets bureaucratic road.From Donald Trump to Pete Buttigieg, everyone agrees: America has forgotten how to build things. But even if Washington cleared every federal rule tomorrow, states would still hold the keys to actually breaking ground. Whether it's Clean Air Act permits, water discharge approvals, or the maze of mini-NEPAs and local reviews, states issue most of the paperwork that determines if your project lives or dies.This isn't just red tape—it can be competitive advantage. States that master the art of streamlined permitting without sacrificing environmental standards can capture billions in reshoring investment. Digital dashboards, consolidated reviews, shot-clocks with automatic approvals—these bureaucratic innovations are becoming economic development superpowers.Federal dollars from infrastructure, CHIPS, and climate bills are queued up, but shovels aren't hitting the ground. From geothermal in California to advanced nuclear in Montana, nearly every clean technology faces its first real test at the state level. Joining us are Emmet Penney, Senior Fellow at FAI focusing on Infrastructure and Energy, and Thomas Hochman, Director of Infrastructure Policy at FAI.

Slow Supply, Fast Demand: Uranium's New Reality

Interview withJohn Cash, CEO of Ur-Energy Inc.Andre Liebenberg, Executive Director & CEO of Yellow Cake PLCRecording date: 14th May 2025The global uranium market is undergoing a fundamental transformation as a confluence of energy transition goals, geopolitical tensions, and new technology drives demand higher. Nuclear power, long sidelined in policy debates, is regaining momentum due to its ability to deliver carbon-free baseload power in a world increasingly powered by data centers, AI infrastructure, and electrification.Key markets like China and the U.S. are leading the resurgence. China alone is building 26 reactors, with more approved, while the U.S. is extending the life and output of existing plants. Beyond these, countries in the UAE, Canada, and Europe are revisiting nuclear as part of their decarbonization strategy. This results in a dual demand dynamic—growth from new builds and rising fuel requirements from uprates and life extensions.A new frontier of demand is also emerging. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), designed for remote or off-grid applications, are being positioned to serve industrial projects and data centers needing secure, emissions-free energy. This aligns with a broader shift from nuclear being seen purely as a clean energy solution to one that also supports energy sovereignty and national resilience.On the supply side, the uranium sector is constrained. Permitting delays, technical bottlenecks, labor shortages, and long project lead times mean even elevated prices haven't sparked a broad production rebound. Industry leaders like UR Energy CEO John Cash and Yellow Cake CEO Andre Liebenberg point to the lack of conversion and enrichment capacity in Western markets as an additional hurdle. This underscores the need for multi-year investment in the full fuel cycle.Geopolitics are also tightening Western supply chains. Kazakhstan, the world's top uranium producer, is increasingly shipping material eastward, not out of hostility but practicality. Still, the result is a growing bifurcation in global uranium flows that further limits Western procurement options.As a result, institutional investors are being encouraged to view uranium as a structurally revaluing asset class rather than a cyclical commodity. Exposure can be taken through physical holders like Yellow Cake, which tracks uranium prices directly, or producers like UR Energy, which is already generating long-term contract revenue.Risks remain—chiefly around timing, geopolitical disruption, and capital market dynamics. Yet, with demand outpacing supply and investment requirements high, the uranium market appears poised for sustained long-term opportunity.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Our recent SAM Huddle, Thinking Clearly in Uncertain Times, was recorded on April 21, 2025. With tensions around trade and cross-border relations rising, this conversation brought together industry and policy perspectives to delve into how these developments are reshaping the landscape for travel and resort operations throughout North America. This is episode two of our two-part series covering this conversation.  The J-1 visa program is facing potential cuts, prompting resorts to diversify recruitment strategies. While the program currently remains viable for the upcoming season, H-2B visas are being considered as a more stable—albeit costlier—alternative. Many resorts are preparing to use both to cover seasonal staffing needs.  Plus, efforts to streamline the National Environmental Policy Act or NEPA process are also underway, with more responsibility placed on project sponsors to prepare documentation. Staffing shortages at the federal level are causing some delays, leading to increased use of third-party contractors. But, projects that can align with forest health and wildfire mitigation goals may gain added momentum.

Justin Reid, President and CEO of Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF), joins me for a comprehensive update on a key project financing milestone building up the capital stack, additions to personnel with ongoing derisking initiatives, detailed engineering underway, permitting progress, political tailwinds, and more drilling success at the Gold-Copper Troilus Project located in northcentral Quebec, Canada.   Troilus announced on March 13th, that they have secured a US$700MM ( CDN$1BB) project financing syndicate underwritten by Societe Generale ( Paris), KfW Ipex-bank ( Frankfurt) and Export Development Canada.  These lead arrangers will act as the agent via direct lending to the ECA's for which we have an LOI ( Finnvera, EKN, Euler Hermes and EIFO).”   We review the expanded 80-person Troilus team at present working full steam ahead, including the addition of 4 new members of the management team, and complimented by 50 employees of a 3rd-party contractor that are working on the detailed engineering studies.  Justin paints the picture of how significant the Troilus Project will be for jobs in Quebec, with ~1400 jobs over the 2-year construction process, and then 680 jobs over the 22-year life of mine.    This leads into a discussion on the recent bipartisan consensus on the need to streamline permitting and enable the timely advancement of strategic projects that support Canada's energy transition, economic growth, and global competitiveness. Notably, the Copper-Gold Troilus Project was recently identified as one of ten key natural resource developments of interest in a CPC proposal to simplify and accelerate permitting and development. This recognition follows similar indications of support for a more efficient regulatory framework from the LPC who has publicly endorsed a “one project, one review” permitting system.   Wrapping up we touched up on the importance of the recent high-grade infill drill results that were just released from the SouthWest Zone, in terms of gaining higher confidence ounces in the resource and for the higher-grade near-surface intercepts having a positive impact on the early years in the mining sequence.   Southwest Drill Intercept Highlights:   Hole SW-25-688 intersected 2.44 g/t gold equivalent (“AuEq”) (2.03 g/t Au, 2.55 g/t Ag, 0.23 % Cu) over 56 meters (m), including 3.28 g/t AuEq (2.74 g/t Au, 3.38 g/t Ag, 0.29 % Cu) over 34 m. This is the best drill intercept in the history of the Southwest in terms of linear grade.   Hole SW-25-679 intersected 1.22 g/t AuEq (1.13 g/t Au, 0.81 g/t Ag, 0.04 % Cu) over 51 m including 15.39 g/t AuEq (15.25 g/t Au, 0.60 g/t Ag, 0.08 % Cu) over 1 m, and 8.18 g/t AuEq (7.33 g/t Au, 8.50 g/t Ag, 0.44 % Cu) over 1 m starting at 9 metres downhole.     If you have any questions for Justin regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Troilus Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Troilus Gold

Minnesota ‘red-tape experiment' streamlines permitting process to achieve carbon-free grid

Wind and solar are among the cheapest energy sources available today, but even when clean-energy projects are ready to go, a cumbersome permit process is slowing down their implementation. Allison Prang wrote a New York Times article about a Minnesota experiment to cut the red tape that is impeding the state's ability to achieve its clean-energy goals. She spoke to MPR chief meteorologist Paul Huttner about her reporting.  The transcript below has been lightly edited for clarity and length. Minnesota has a goal of carbon-free on the electric grid by 2040. How does this new law help speed up that process?When I talked to Governor Walz, he said it was fair to say that without doing some reform for the state's permitting process, it would be tough for Minnesota to hit that goal.I talked to one lawyer who works with companies that are working on projects, getting them approved in the state. He said it's taken some as long as 13 months, and people are hoping that the permanent reform law could shave off the typical timeline by several months. If it does what they want, it could make it much quicker for projects to come online. Is this just in Minnesota, or is this a national problem, too? Permitting reform is a very unsexy and yet super crucial topic that the whole country is grappling with. In Washington, members of Congress have tried to tackle the issue, because it does have bipartisan support. But it's not just a national issue; there are things states can do to tackle the problem. Like Minnesota, other states have also passed laws trying to make the process easier at home, and sometimes localities are involved. It really depends on where an energy developer is working — what state, what area in the state? That's why it's so complicated. It really, really is situational. What should we be watching for with getting these projects to the grid going forward?The really big thing that's happening in the backdrop of all of this is that not only are we seeing the country electrify more broadly — and states and localities have these climate goals — but we're also going to see an increase in power demand like we haven't seen in decades. So that's happening at the same time, and part of that is because we're seeing more data centers come online. We just need more power as a country. A lot of people are watching if the new Congress will be able to get a permitting reform bill over the finish line, what that would look like, and asking would that make permanent renewables easier? It's going to be really interesting to see if the country can tackle this problem and make it easier, so that we can kind of meet this really crazy moment of this expected increase in demand.To hear the full conversation, click play on the audio player above or subscribe to the Climate Cast podcast.

James McWalter is the CEO and co-founder of Paces, an AI-powered software platform that helps clean energy project developers identify and evaluate the best sites for new projects. Paces streamlines the process by integrating interconnection, environmental, zoning, and legal data on land parcels—key factors developers must navigate when selecting viable locations. MCJ is proud to be an investor in Paces through our venture funds.In renewable project development, one of the biggest challenges is quickly pinpointing sites with the highest likelihood of reaching operation efficiently. As James explains, this process depends on multiple factors: the capacity of the local grid, whether upgrades are needed to connect a project, the feasibility of permitting, and more. And as we discuss, the recent AI-driven data center boom is intensifying the urgency and complexity of each of these considerations.Paces' platform is being used by both clean energy developers and data center developers who need to get projects built as quickly, cost-effectively, and cleanly as possible. A few months ago, Paces co-authored a white paper with Scale Microgrids and Stripe Climate titled Fast, Scalable, Clean, and Cheap Enough: How Off-Grid Solar Microgrids Can Power the AI Race—a report that sparked a lot of conversation. In it, they explore whether the forecasted energy demands of AI can be met with off-grid, behind-the-meter projects.Oh, and James also hosts his own podcast, Build Repeat, where he interviews project developers and others actively building and deploying clean energy solutions.With all that said, James and I dive into his background, the origins of Paces, and much more in this episode.In this episode, we cover: [2:48] Introduction to Paces and James' background[6:26] The origin story of Paces and how James met his co-founder, Charles[9:24] Key challenges faced by clean energy project developers[11:45] Permitting bottlenecks and delays[14:57] The growing challenge of decreasing grid capacity[16:01] How Paces' software addresses site selection challenges[19:11] The role of NIMBY opposition in the permitting process[22:42] How developers leverage Paces' platform[24:51] Paces' customer segmentation and user types[28:08] How Paces supports data center development[30:16] Insights from Paces' white paper on off-grid solutions for AI-driven data centers (available at offgridai.us)[38:49] The feasibility of achieving 100% renewable energy for data centers[46:10] Paces' fundraising to date and the types of partners they're looking forEpisode recorded on Feb 19, 2025 (Published on March 6, 2025) Enjoyed this episode?

Former President Biden's final days in office involved signing an US$840 million energy contract with Constellation - a statement of intent for the US's largest nuclear supplier. Since then, what's changed with nuclear policy? To find out, host Sylvia Leyva Martinez – a principal analyst at Wood Mackenzie – welcomes Maria Korsnick, President and CEO of the Nuclear Energy Institute to the show. Maria says that despite uncertainties, there's no reason large reactors couldn't achieve costs as low as US$60 to US$80 per megawatt-hour. Utilities are eyeing an additional 100GW of nuclear power by 2050 – driven in large part by demand from data centers and the tech giants. So how is the industry going to meet this demand? New technology? More permitting reform? More investment? Join us as Maria reveals the industry's strategic momentum and the pivotal role nuclear plays in providing round-the-clock, highly reliable and cleaner energy. Engagement with both state and tech sectors could shift nuclear from perceived outsider to mainstream option. Expect in-depth analysis on how the US is positioning itself to meet skyrocketing energy demands, especially from the ever-expanding tech sector.Follow the show wherever you get podcasts, and we'll be back in two weeks time, Tuesday at 7am.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
