Crouse-Hinds Series Ruff-IN™ Prefabricated Assemblies

Industry Challenges Impact Your Bottom Line

The demands on electrical contractors are at an all-time high. Incredibly tight budgets paired with scope creep, digital deliverables, and green building initiatives like waste reduction create unique challenges for nearly every project. Pairing these challenges with a shrinking workforce and expedited construction schedules requires contractors to optimize labor in new ways.

Because productivity challenges are hit hardest at the rough-in stage of a project, it can create inefficient material management and slow installation when working in ceilings and walls. Contractors need efficiency and consistency to get it done right and quickly while improving their bottom line.
