a <br />BUSINESS (Cont'd <br />Sheet Metal & Heating Company, Mr. Crighton advised Barany sub - <br />contracts the electrical work, but does do his own plumbing and <br />heating. Some of the contractors who own their firms actually <br />do some of the work personally. Barany does not. He is a <br />business manager; he has his own carpentry crew, own plumbing <br />and heating crews; but he does subcontract the electrical work. <br />The general contractor can have his own work crew, or he can just <br />serve as a business manager and subcontract out to regular firms <br />to work with him, and he handles the paper work for the subcon- <br />tractors. <br />Mr. Caesar further asked, "Is it permitted for Redevelopment <br />to subcontract work out itself and eliminate the middleman ?" <br />Mr. Crighton advised, "No. You cannot do that in the State of <br />Indiana." The Chair further stated, "Of course, as I view the <br />construction industry, Lloyd, [Commissioner Robinson], you are <br />probably more close than anybody to this thing. This is happen- <br />ing over the country whereby large or certain contractors are <br />just really managers and they put the project together and all <br />they do is supervise them; they actually have no work crew of <br />their own. The only employees they have is just supervisors or <br />engineers or accountants, so actually they have no laborers other <br />than supervisors and they merely manage the project. Isn't that <br />right, Lloyd ?" Response by Commissioner Robinson was, "Yes." <br />Commissioner Wiggins added, "Well, management is worth something. <br />This is not to say that they do nothing for their money. If you <br />nave had anything built, you appreciate a general contractor that <br />Mould keep everybody moving and get the job done." <br />7.
