OVERVIEW
Ahead of the Lead Time
Availability of equipment and materials is one of the biggest risks to project schedule; it’s also one of the very first that a project faces. Supply challenges can have a cascading effect long before construction begins, with extended lead times, market volatility, and late purchasing decisions resulting in increased costs or jeopardizing critical milestones.
Gray’s procurement and supply chain team builds sourcing strategy into pre-construction, identifying long-lead equipment and materials early, securing early capacity, leveraging diverse suppliers and proven vendor relationships, and tracking items through fabrication and delivery. Capital equipment procurement, material sourcing, and vendor coordination run through the same team managing the schedule, so lead times are built into the plan, not discovered.
