Straight up real talk

We’re fining ourselves $5 if we say "synergy."

Construction is complicated enough.

You’ve got geotech issues, supply chain delays, and weather events that defy meteorology.

The last thing you need is a consultant coming in and talking about "shifting paradigms," "circling back," or taking a "deep dive" into the "low-hanging fruit."

At The Bench, we have a zero-tolerance policy for waffle.

We operate a strict Jargon Jar in the office.

•  "Blue sky thinking"? That’s $5.

•  "Touch base"? That’s $5.

•  "Learnings"? (It’s just 'lessons', mate). That’s $10.

We believe that if you can’t explain risk to a Site Foreman without using a buzzword, you probably don’t understand the risk well enough yourself.

A Bench Warmer isn’t here to sound smart. We’re here to be smart.

We speak plain English. We use diagrams on napkins. We use football analogies (too often). Whatever it takes to get the point across and the issue resolved.

So, if you want commercial support that sounds like a human being rather than a LinkedIn algorithm, give us a shout.

(We promise not to "reach out." We’ll just call you.)
