SKILLFORCE was created as a direct response to the construction industry's challenges of workforce to workload. Our model for construction support revolves around outside sales reps educating customers on the benefits of maintaining a slimmed down workforce and supplementing variable help only when needed. This model has helped many contractors in the Northern Virginia area increase profitability since they aren’t carrying additional labor costs through unproductive phases on a construction project.

Can you imagine the fulfillment knowing that you’re helping out a partner by sending them a qualified craftsman, but also allowing someone to put food on the table at the same time by giving them work? We don’t have to imagine it, we do it every single day.
