SynkedUP 2026
Thanks. Your response is in.
Phil will share what contractors said and what he has learned from solving many of these same labor and production challenges in his own business.
Thanks, guys. It was an honor speaking at SynkedUP, and I really enjoyed meeting so many of you.
I’ve got your response. Once the rest come in, I’ll reach back out and share what I’ve learned from dealing with these same challenges in my own business over the years... what worked, what didn’t, and where contractors can make the biggest improvements.
My goal is to give you something practical you can take back to your own company and actually use.
— Phil Bahler
Already back to telling your crew they just need to work harder?
Then it might be time to revisit Systems Over Sweat.
The pressures haven’t changed. Good people are hard to find, labor is expensive, and your crews only have so much to give.
The answer isn’t always asking people to work harder.
Sometimes the system needs to work better.
SynkedUP Presentation
Systems Over Sweat
Take another look at Phil’s presentation from SynkedUP. It lays out the thinking behind Systems Over Sweat and the changes that contractors need to start making now.
The presentation opens in SharePoint, where it can be viewed online or downloaded.
