Small contractors often don’t realize where money was lost on a project until it’s too late. MIH provides a focused, remote review service designed to help you understand what happened, why it happened, and how to prevent it from happening again.

What’s Included

• Review of 1–2 Active or Recently Completed Jobs
  A detailed look at labor usage, productivity, change orders, and job documentation.
• Identification of Profit Loss Areas
  Clear analysis of where the job went off track — whether due to labor overruns, productivity issues, scope gaps, or missed change order opportunities.
• Written Report with Findings & Recommendations
  A straightforward summary outlining the issues discovered and practical steps your company can take to correct them on future projects.
• Follow‑Up Phone or Video Review
  A remote meeting to walk through the report, answer questions, and discuss next steps.

How the Process Works
This service is conducted entirely remotely, making it easy for contractors to get expert insight without disrupting their workflow. You simply provide the job information you have available — labor reports, daily logs, change order documentation, or any other relevant details.

MIH reviews the project with a focus on uncovering the root causes of lost profit. The goal isn’t to point fingers — it’s to help you understand what happened and give you practical, realistic recommendations that can be applied immediately on your next job.

Once the review is complete, you’ll receive a clear written report outlining:

• where profit was lost
• why it occurred
• what can be corrected
• how to prevent similar issues going forward

A follow‑up phone or video call is included to discuss the findings and answer any questions.

Price: $450

Small insulation contractors often lose money long before a project begins — it happens during estimating. MIH offers a focused, practical service designed to strengthen your estimating process and improve the accuracy and profitability of your bids.

What’s Included

• Overall Review of Your Estimating Process
  A detailed look at how you currently approach takeoffs, pricing, labor calculations, and bid preparation.
• Scope Gap Analysis & Specification Interpretation
  Identification of missing scope items, misread specifications, and areas where clarification can prevent costly mistakes.
• Productivity Guidance & Support
  Recommendations based on industry‑standard productivity rates and real‑world field experience.
• Bid Strategy Guidance
  Insight into how to position your bid, evaluate risk, and improve your chances of winning profitable work.

How the Process Works
This service is conducted entirely remotely, making it simple to review your estimating process without interrupting your workflow. It begins with a call to discuss your current approach and the outcomes you want to achieve. From there, MIH develops a customized estimating improvement plan tailored specifically to your company’s goals and workflow.

Most contractors find that only a few targeted adjustments are needed — changes that can be integrated smoothly without disrupting your existing process or organizational structure. This is not a “one‑size‑fits‑all” system. Every recommendation is built around the way your company operates.

Once the review is complete, you’ll receive a clear, written report outlining:

• your current estimating method
• MIH’s recommendations
• how each recommendation fits into your existing workflow

A follow‑up phone or video call is included to walk through the report and answer any questions.

Price: $450
