re: #215 Backwoods_Sleuth

The rationale of this company being involved is that they somehow the technical expertise to run power lines in mountainous terrain.

The reality is that they are… a 2 man operation that subcontracts out the actual work to others.

In other words, they repackage work done by others, tack on their profits, and make out like bandits.

If a job costs X, this group will simply build in their profit margin and subcontractors do the actual work.

Why not contract directly with the subcontractors, instead of dealing with a 2-person outfit. The only reason they were picked were the connections, not because they’re doing it cheaper or faster or better.

That’s the real question here.
