I think that one of the major problems is that a good portion of the qualified employees are "donning the fire chief helmet" themselves. Which leads to a frick & frack landscaping company on every corner.
With that being said, coming from the employee side of things, having a brief "class" before a project started would help. Just going over a quick time-line, going over any "difficulties" that are going to come into play, and depending on the difficulty a quick plan and possibly letting the "foreman" see the plan prior to the day of the project starting.
I understand that the idea is for the "foreman" to be able to do this stuff on his own, but remember that, assuming the owner does the selling and design drafting, the owner has had possibly months to mull over the project and whoever is getting the plan has about 45 minutes.
I hope I haven't offended anyone or pissed anyone off, just some quick thoughts from the other side.
