Communication

Poor team coordination causes uncertainty and schedule loss.

Fee Accuracy

Low initial proposal hides scope gaps — add-service costs follow.

Plan Check

Slow approvals because drawings don't anticipate city requirements.

Field Coordination

Generic details cause conflicts and RFIs during construction.

Design Quality

Innovative ideas compromised — engineer cannot support the vision.

Early Clarity

Critical decisions made before structural constraints are understood.

Building Knowledge

Structural system never studied — the whole project rests on a false premise.
