Steve Nack landed a good contract, but a big deadline problem. He had to retrofit 4,375 center-of-tile sprinkler heads in five schools, and he had only a month to do it. Within days, though, he found the key to not only meet the aggressive deadline, but also to beat it and protect his bottom line.
"When I read the fine print to see what the schedule was, well then, I really had to sharpen my pencil to make sure that we could do it," says Nack, president of Golden Triangle Fire Protection of Denton, TX. "I was sweating it--it was really going to be close, even though my guys were all psyched up for it. We thought we could make it happen, but it would mean long hours--18 to 20 a day--and weekends, too."
