Reuben Electrical Contracting | Application Preview

 

Reuben Electrical Contracting is seeking government grants to enhance its operations by hiring a dedicated project manager. This move aims to relieve the owner from daily superintendent responsibilities, allowing for greater focus on business development and strategic growth.

The business plan includes the recruitment of a superintendent and additional qualified electricians/journeymen, as well as training existing staff to elevate them to journeyman status. The rationale for funding emphasizes the company's potential for long-term profitability in the construction sector, which remains a stable industry. Notably, Arizona faces a labor shortage, and upcoming trade programs are projected to help address this issue over the next few years.

The application highlights a significant challenge: large corporations like Intel often lure skilled employees away with higher pay, which poses difficulties for smaller businesses to compete. To address this, additional funding is essential for investing in employees, which is critical for moving the company forward.

Reuben Electrical Contracting distinguishes itself through its small, family-owned nature and its strong community reputation. The owner’s hands-on approach to projects adds to the company's competitive edge, positioning it as a reliable choice in a challenging market.
