New Partnership with EOS

NASHVILLE, TN - EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) joins BuildWitt to help solve the workforce issues the construction industry is facing. With a dwindling recruiting pool, companies can’t keep crews fully staffed to meet demands, and the problem is only growing with time.

The two companies will combine their resources to bring awareness to the issue and help companies access solutions to meet their specific needs.

EOS is a simple, proven business operating system that can help entrepreneurial organizations clarify, simplify, and achieve their visions.

“Many firms in the construction and related industries either don't have access to workforce development tools or feel comfortable using the tools that are available, to help them get a grip on their business.

“Even large companies are looking to improve how they communicate with everyone in their organization, how to use technology in new ways to build skills and knowledge at all levels of the organization, and looking to work with platforms that make sense, and are approachable and useable regardless of location, time of day, background or education.

“Our industry is loaded with talent, people who are great at building things, who need help building people, teams and their company.

“BuildWitt can be the platform that can drive positive change in our industry,” says Bill Duguay, Professional EOS Implementer at EOS Worldwide.

Since 2018, BuildWitt has been addressing common workforce problems by providing media and marketing services to companies in the Dirt World (i.e., infrastructure, earthmoving, utilities, site work, demolition, mining, materials, heavy equipment dealers, and supporting vendors). In 2022, BuildWitt launched a training platform with over 400 microlessons. The company’s next step is establishing partnerships with other organizations driven by the same mission.

“I’m a huge fan of EOS and Traction after using it successfully at a previous company. It’s a simple system using plain language, and that’s the genius of it. Some of the best companies I know use Traction to get their teams aligned. We’re excited to partner with Bill Duguay and EOS Worldwide to help contractors improve how they run their businesses,” says Dan Briscoe, President of BuildWitt.

BuildWitt has identified six primary causes for the workforce shortage: aging workforce; individuals choosing college instead of trades; record demand for infrastructure; fierce competition for workers from other industries; poor perception of blue-collar work; and different mindsets and desires among today’s younger generation.

The company will strategize with each new partnership to address one or more of the specific root causes of the workforce shortage.

“We don’t claim to have all the answers or solutions. What’s missing isn’t an effort or intent to solve the workforce problem—instead, it’s a cohesive effort,” says Aaron Witt, CEO  of BuildWitt.
