Drew has a formula for reducing the assets required to operate without diminishing the design of the homes he produces or marginalizing the subcontractors. The national builders could learn from him.

Drew Holzwarth’s program works very well with Builders First Source. He truly cares about his vendors and does a great job of making his vision a true team vision! We feel he not only cares about his business but ours also.

thanks Drew

I like that concept of “asset never” vs “asset light.” What Holzwarth’s model demonstrates is the value of a) knowing your costs (and the costs of your vendors!) and b) building good relationships with everybody in the supply chain – developers included.

Good job Holzwarth!
