À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Eric Helitzer breaks down one of the most critical parts of the construction process: the request for quote (RFQ). While RFQs are essential for gathering bids and selecting subcontractors, many teams still rely on outdated documentation methods. The result is a fragmented workflow that creates unnecessary delays, limits visibility, and increases the risk of costly mistakes before a project even begins.
Eric walks listeners through a smarter, more structured approach to RFQs that transforms them from a manual task into a strategic advantage. This framework allows companies to improve procurement outcomes by moving from a reactive approach to proactive planning, strengthening margins, and streamlining operations.
