When you are the Prime on a job, YES you do have the direct-line of responsibilities and risk. An as you stated you do have your in-house crews that sould be making you a lot more than 5%. As sub-contractors we too share in the risk side as well, and need to make more to cover our cost just as you do. After all if your crews can handle the whole project, then you would not need us. No offense.
> So you think that the prime should take the risk and only make 5% on the job. If that was the case then there is no way in the world I would attempt to sub out any work. We are not a paper contractor, we have our own trucks, crews and warehouse. I disagree with some on the board that think that it is the little guys that are causing this price crunch. I have heard some of the prices that some larger contractors are paying subs, and they are below what my in-house guys make. Good Luck to all.
