I don't care who who engages most, i care mostly about who cages and provides the basic amenities a sane country should have...... Trying to make buhari and co to appear like they care no go work, their only engagement is to loot and oppress the citizens

For a client in Abia

This country is dying and nobody is talking about it. An slowpoke will run this country better than buhari. How does he even sleep at night knowing he's a complete waste? This thing baffle me

Sure the site is open. I’m opening up NextHome’s Lagos office - The Incubator back very soon make rotecch77 no come dey use me do shakara

You can reach any height if you put your focus on what truly matters. For me, I compete from my area of strength - equipment, tools and resource management.

We don’t wait for things to break before we fix it and we are constantly evolving.

Myself and one of my chairmo on this thread is currently working on something cool that’ll be coming up very soon in Lekki Scheme II.

More resources for the big bro. One of my great guy did the preliminaries on this new project site and it was great when I visited it last Saturday.

Oga I’m praying for you already o

thank you

Sorry, all hope is not lost, should we donate to her, so she can start from somewhere.

Experience has shaped us over the years.

To be honest, I so much enjoyed the whole thing because I’ve being trying to push my business to the extreme and that project presented me an opportunity.

My grouse is my Oga client didn’t know when to stop. He felt I’m stupid and needs to rub it on my face
Or probably one of those small contractor who will run from the project when starved with funds.

There’s no harm in saying “Hey Brabus, I need you to work with me on this project. There’s a lot of good sturvs in it for us both.”
I can decide to do it without any fuss.

The truth I’m building my business to a level where all you need to do is to prove you have all the resource to fund the project. With a solid agreement and legal backing, I’d take care of any project with my own fund.

When my client said “No Prelims” I smiled because I have everything you need to set up 2 sites at a go and those are the things you take care in prelims as far back as 2015.

And of course, a contractor who can deliver over 20 tons of reinforcement without a down payment wouldn’t struggle to build a common duplex na.

Just name the equipment, we have it!

Once I get my new dump truck, I think we are complete once again. Looking forward to a Chinese Truck in not-too-distant future.

Greatest!!! Hoping i get to where you are even if half of it, till then let me gathering experience from professionals like you, i will like to visit your site and learn a thing or two,

Prior to preparing my baba lati bill, I asked for the construction route (owner-managed or contractor managed) so that I can know what I’m covering and preparing bill for.

The client asked for contractor-managed approach and I prepared my bill accordingly putting some unbelievable cost-shaving measures in place.

After my baba lati quote was approved, and notice to proceed (NTP) was issued, I went ahead to prepare the project schedule in accordance with the scope of work and best construction practices.


DUMBO 2

I sent in my final bills and my client said he’s not making any provision for Preliminaries on the project.

I repeat “No Provision for Preliminaries”

So what do Preliminaries really cover in projects? In layman understanding, Preliminaries covers things which includes but not limited to hose, water tank, storage, provision of electricity, site signboard, site security etc.

Why did the client say he’s not taking care of the Preliminaries?
Because of the build approach (I being the General Contractor), the scale of the project and some level of pre-construction activities that has been carried out on the project site.
The client felt if I am truly who I say I am on NL with all the number site support equipment I claim to have and use on my projects, then I should be able to handle this without stress.

He said I was considered for the job because of the way u do my sturvs blah, blah.

I was wowed (yinmu) and told my guys “Leggo do some magic. Move Everrrrrythinnng including staple pins. ”

That was how we walked into a “No Commitment, No Contract” project.

I love doing some things to gather experience to teach younger ones. This was just one of it!

____________

After we moved Olympus to the project site, my chairmo said ”I’ve not seen anything na! Is this all you brag about online?” Until a serious commitment has been made, we won’t start.

I smiled and asked for a contract to be signed officially. My Oga stylishly deflect this with a “Let’s tidy up all the bills and make adjustment to the new reviews made.”

Unfortunately I wasn’t on the project with my laptop to immediately edit the bill and do a review. So I have to wait to settle down and do the review.

During this period, I felt it makes no sense to just sit without doing anything. I decided to commence some skeletal pre-construction activities.

My Oga came again “Can we go ahead with the project while you move your command center to the site because we have no time to waste.”

Remember there was no contract because we are awaiting a review of the final bill and I’m already on the project site with some tools and guys to commence preliminary works based on project schedule.

So I felt, moving ahead with the project as suggested by the client is a good way to prevent waste of precious time

@Egunmogaji2 how much time do a contractor need to draw conclusion a client has some skeleton in his sleeves.

At point of negotiation? At the beginning of the project? The way issues are managed? Or after things has gone south?

I suspected foul-play at the point when mine said he’s not taking care of preliminaries because I’m a BiG contractor who needs to prove to the world I am who I really claimed I am.

______

My client came up with “You can order all you need for the project while you tidy up your preliminaries.”

I mean order materials. With what?

“Do I order several tons of reinforcement without a commitment? Or what exactly does this imply?”

“Ha ha, that’s not it na! I just don’t want us to waste time. So it’s fair to order some materials that’ll be needed ahead of your readiness for the project.” My Oga replied.

He added “You know I don’t know you and you don’t know me either. What if paid you and you chose to run away my money tomorrow morning. Just make your orders, funds will be released to you as “materials are delivered.” This looks like a good help to save time while we await the final review of my bill for the project which is also delaying the official signing of the contract

If you’re reading “See the implication of entering into a “No Commitment” contract. You never know who you’re dealing with.

While my client was asking me to make my orders, he already have one of his men who has been well instructed to understudy me (I pretended I didn’t know) to get all the numbers of my suppliers and key contacts
As a matter of fact, I offered him a bed for some weeks in my family house to allow him see me finish

So I made my orders and delivered without a single commitment to the project. I’m talking about order running into several millions.

First, I moved my command base without a single commitment.

Second, I made order for materials for a project without a contract using my leverage.

This was the reason I was smiling when one of my chairman claimed maybe a client didn’t see value in my proposition. He didn’t see value and he’s going behind my back to collect contact details of my supplier and planting a snitch called project supervisor on me
Leveraging on my goodwill!

A lot do people do approach me for consultation and I’d do that without asking for anything in return. Even major suppliers here do ask me to give them link to my suppliers and I do without any strings attached.


So, fund for the goods ordered was released. Can we shout Halleluyah yet


Next is My DUMBO 3

Bungalow

haba not possible nah

It is possible, more like a cantilever building, where the ground floor can only have the entrance and stair hall to access the floor above, you can park one car at most, m not sure if two cars might fit, but it will depend on the shape of the land.

bixton:
Many of these confusion and noisynez of artisans is the fault of the client. They don't have confidence in the engineer and at every point in time they spend more time discussing with artisans on site. This is one of the reasons I hardly work with strange artisans. Before you know the services of the engineer will be terminated before the completion of the project.

bro it's really appalling, and it nearly happened to me

TEQ365VENTURES:
So I posted the plan of my project few weeks ago for correction which professionals in the house helped me do some corrections.

The foundation is up to DPC Now and we would start the backfilling by next week. It’s a dry land do I need to consider doing any plinth beam as this is not in the structural drawing.

I brought this here when the bricklayer mentioned to me I do the beam but when I asked the engineer he said we do not need it as it’s not accommodated in the structural. Should i be worried about anything?

bricklayer and their nosy attitude, engineer didn't specify it in the structural drawing, why bother does it mean that the bricklayer is more experienced than the Engineer, I personally don't like it when a bricklayer does this kind of stuff. This is how I nearly slapped one bricklayer on site after he did opposite of what I told him, even went behind my back to speak to the client to defending his actions......

However since the land is dry, I don't think the introduction of beam is necessary, but if you can afford it, go ahead.

1. I work as a teacher in a secondary school.
2.When I joined the school in 2019, it was 10 000 per month.
In September 2020,it was increased to 12 000 per month.
In May 2021,it was increased to 14 000 per month.
But that doesn't mean I have been receiving a specific amount every month since I joined the school.
Whenever the school is on break,I don't get paid at all.

Like I said, I don't mind porn too.

It doesn't seem to me like you have any severe illness,but if you don't have any I think you chance of become successful is huge, it is all in the mindset, you need people to survive though, but assuming that someone won't help you before reaching out is not the right attitude. Even the porn you wan go do, na person go still help you, most people are suffering, the country is hard, you are not the only one, so never feel that you have a problem that is unsolvable because the country is a mess right now, people will not want to help you because nobody trusts anybody anymore, live your life and do the things that make you happy, don't let any body Even a pastor tell you something is wrong with you, I won't tell you about God, but if you would want to give him your time, do so at your own discretion and alone, discover him yourself, you will surely find him, no be by dwelling in the gathering of men(church), or following pastors here and there. discover him yourself.
