Subject: RE: Re[2]: Who's the most important person?

I'd like to vote, too....only my opinion.

1. The PE or architect or sprinkler designer does his work on paper.
2. The AHJ or consulting engineer approves the paper submittal.
3. The field crew installs the project based on the paper plans, but
they have the ability to make desisions based on their knowledge of what
is required, and perhaps make appropriate corrections before the city
inspector finds these errors. 
4. The city inspector who approves/disapproves the installation based on
the approved plans and his knowledge of what is required.

The most important people are the field crew and city inspectors because
they ultimately see and approved the completed project regardless of
what is done on paper in Items # 1 and 2. 

Heck, I'm only a plan reviewer...and I have the upmost respect for the
knowledgable field guy who finds and corrects all the mistakes that I
made during my paper plan review. Train them, pay them, and keep them in
your company cause they can make or break you.

Actually the question was a serious one.  I am trying to separate the
components of successful companies into several categories - perhaps I
should have included the fitter crew also.  Maybe this one of those
chain is no stronger than the weakest link scenarios.

Maybe there's no ready answer to the question - I'll go back and sit
down now.
