Turnkey or Truss Package? Here’s How to Pick the Right Fit -
November 5, 2025
Builders across Minnesota are looking for ways to hit tighter cycle times while managing labor shortages and unpredictable schedules.
One of the easiest ways to stay ahead is choosing the right framing package from the start — one that fits your project size, schedule, and budget.
At JL Schwieters, we’ve made this simple with our Custom Package Approach.
Whether you need the full turnkey solution or just a truss package delivered to your site, we tailor everything to your build.
What’s included in our turnkey package
Turnkey Package Includes:
Wall Panels
Floor Panels
Roof Trusses
Loose Lumber
Installation Crews
Coordination & Scheduling
On-Time Deliveries
Ability to scale manpower based on project
Why Builders Choose This:
It shortens framing time dramatically, removes subcontractor coordination headaches, and keeps the entire project moving — especially on tight suburban multi-family timelines.
WHAT’S INCUDED IN OUR TRUSS PACKAGE:
TRUSS Package Includes:
Trusses engineered to your plans
Support on layout and value engineering
Deliveries timed to your schedule
The option to layer in additional components as needed
Why Builders Choose This:
It’s a simple way to add capacity and reliability without changing the way your crews work.
Side-by-Side Comparison
If your project is large, complex, or on a tight timeline, turnkey usually delivers the most value.
If you’ve already got crews and just need dependable trusses, the truss package is often the best fit.
How our Turnkey Process Works
We keep jobs moving by aligning our shop and field teams from day one.
That’s how we’ve been able to hit aggressive schedules on suburban multifamily and rental projects across the Twin Cities.
