Build Smarter: A
Practical Workshop on the Building Administration Guide
This workshop is designed for builders and key admin staff who want to build
smarter in pricing, tendering, contract admin, and leadership.
Hosted by Justin Carnie
– a builder who’s lived the journey and the driving force behind the recent
update of the Building Administration Guide, with over 30 years of experience,
Justin has refreshed the guide, adding new content to keep it relevant for today’s
builders. This interactive session goes beyond theory. It’s a deep dive
into the tools and thinking behind one of the most practical resources Master
Builders has developed for running a better business.
The Building
Administration Guide isn’t just a document – it’s a proven system created by
builders, for builders. It’s packed with the real-world processes, templates,
and checklists that can transform how you run your business day-to-day.
What you’ll learn:
• How to tender with confidence and price for profit
• How to avoid common pitfalls and protect your margin
• How to streamline your contract admin to reduce risk and improve cashflow
• How to lead teams and projects with clarity, care and consistency
• How admin connects directly to your reputation and leadership impact
You’ll work through real
examples (the good and the not-so-good), apply step-by-step checklists, and
learn exactly how to make the most of the guide – from project planning to
client handover. More than just systems, this workshop will challenge you to reflect
on your “why” and equip you to lead with purpose.
Practical. Interactive.
Builder to Builder.
Because building a great business is about more than tools – it’s about people,
leadership, and getting it right from the start.
Attendees are encouraged
to bring their copy of the Building Administration Guide to the workshop.
If
you don’t have one yet, you can order
it through the Master Builders store and collect it on the day.
