by building out Enduro’s own carpentry teams and eventually expanding into other trades as project volume supports full-time workloads. The strategic aim is clear: reduce reliance on fragmented subcontracting, improve quality consistency, and ultimately reduce the cost of delivering highperformance homes. In Jackson’s view, most homes— custom or volume—are still being built to minimum code, and the comfort and health problems remain largely the same across price points.

A BUILDER FOCUSED ON THE BASICS—AND THE FUTURE Enduro Builders’ story is, in many ways, a story about raising the bar by returning to fundamentals. Agree what will be done. Build the plan.

He is a strong believer in off-site construction as a pathway to better quality control, reduced waste, and improved efficiency. The challenge is finding the right method for Enduro’s niche—high-end, bespoke homes—without oversimplifying what makes them unique. Jackson notes that this model already works successfully overseas, especially in Europe; the primary barrier is investment timing and the willingness to allocate capital now for returns that may take time to mature. The second initiative is vertical integration, which may arrive sooner. Jackson wants to lean further into internal capacity 22 BUSINESS VIEW OCEANIA VOLUME 08, ISSUE 01
