Ran logistics and site crews on developments for years before starting SP Lixin Group, and the pattern is always the same: it's almost never the labor that blows the schedule. It's the handoff.

A framing crew finishes early but the lumber delivery is 3 days out because the freight company and the site foreman never synced calendars. A pour gets delayed because rebar cleared customs but sat in a yard with no dispatcher assigned. Multiply that across a project and you lose weeks — not because anyone underperformed, but because construction and logistics get run by two different companies with two different priorities.

The fix isn't hiring harder. It's collapsing the handoff — one team owns both the crew schedule and the material/freight schedule, so nothing waits on an email reply between two vendors.

That's the whole thesis behind what we're building at SP Lixin Group: one point of contact for site work AND hauling/freight on the same project. If you're a developer who's felt this pain, happy to compare notes — drop a comment.
