Another ITK saying next season, I think we better get used to the idea if you haven't already!
This is sounding like either shocking incompetence or intentional sabotage, non?
I do understand that there were thousands of guys working but you'd think they'd be able to catch whomever was responsible after a bit of investigating.As I understand it, there is a mixture of sabotage from guys working on site who support other teams, and also total incompetence during installation. This isn't third hand news from an installer or a friend of a friend, its from Mace themselves.
2000+ guys on site, you can't vet them and there won't be CCTV on site internally that is. By the time this stuff is being discovered its already covered up in part and no one has checked the work beforehand, which I'm not sure I can ever recollect this kind of thing being checked before it gets covered up.I do understand that there were thousands of guys working but you'd think they'd be able to catch whomever was responsible after a bit of investigating.
You'd think someone would have seen SOMETHING. Or some guy would have blabbed to his friends about how he was the one that did it and it's , etc, and that could be investigated.2000+ guys on site, you can't vet them and there won't be CCTV on site internally that is.

Why is the delay from the contractors due to their fuck ups costing us money?
I'm in the real estate development & construction business and that part makes no sense to me.
Thats fucking insane if true.Long story short, from what I recall: DL wanted this done in such a tight timeframe that they were unable to get the normal terms that would cover such fuck-ups. Basically were told "if you want it done in this timeline you can't come back at us if there are issues."
Totally agree. I work in CRE (lending) and can't believe there wouldn't at least be a clause in there that would cover this. Not necessarily a clause about a delivery date, but something to do with a delay due to neglect/fuckery.Thats fucking insane if true.
I understand change orders but complete fuck ups on behalf of the contractors should cost them (the contractors) money, not Tottenham.Totally agree.
