“Act as an experienced construction mediator. I need to resolve a conflict between two subcontractors on my jobsite. Here's the situation: [describe the dispute — e.g. 'The HVAC crew says the framing team left them no room to run ductwork in the ceiling, and the framers say HVAC should have flagged this during plan review']. Help me prepare neutral talking points for a quick on-site meeting with both subs. I want to: acknowledge both perspectives fairly, refocus them on the shared goal of finishing this phase on time, identify 2-3 practical solutions we can choose from right now, and clarify who does what next. Keep the tone calm, professional, and solution-focused — not blaming anyone.”
