Seventy-percent of all projects end over budget and late. The buildingSMART Alliance estimates that up to fifty-percent of the process is consumed in waste. Almost every project includes massive hidden taxes in the form of delays, cost overruns, poor quality, and work that has to be redone. Building new structures is a fragmented, adversarial process that commonly results in dissatisfied customers and frequently ends in disappointment, bitterness, and even litigation.  \u003cp\u003eThe industry must change—for its own good and that of its customers. But while the industry has tried to reform itself, it can’t do it alone. Real change can only come from business owners and executives who refuse to continue paying for a dysfunctional system and demand a new way of doing business.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Commercial Real Estate Revolution\u003c\/i\u003e is a bold manifesto for change from the Mindshift consortium—a group of top commercial real estate industry leaders who are fed up with a system that simply doesn’t work. The book explains how business leaders can implement nine principles for any project that will dramatically cut costs, end delays, create better buildings, and force the industry into real reform.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Commercial Real Estate Revolution\u003c\/i\u003e offers a radically new way of doing business—a beginning-to-end, trust-based methodology that transforms the building process from top to bottom. Based on unifying principles and a common framework that meets the needs of \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e stakeholders, this new system can reform and remake commercial construction into an industry we’re proud to be a part of.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf you’re one of the millions of hardcore cynics who work in commercial construction, you probably think this sounds like pie in the sky.
