In March of 1930, construction began on a project as mega as they come, The Empire State Building. Shortly over a year later, it was finished under budget. Why does this seem so impossible to us today?
Through an analysis of more than $1 trillion worth of capital projects over the past five years, McKinsey has uncovered the trend, we simply stopped collaborating well. In other words, there is a direct correlation between increasing productivity and improving basic project-management outcomes. Not only does this direction seem to offer the most promise for improving site and operational performance, but also the relationship between owners and the design construction teams themselves. It sounds simple, but the difficulty lies in how we tackle the challenge of productivity and with what tools?
Join ENR and AJ Waters, VP of Industry Solutions, InEight, and Dr. Theodore J. Weidner, Professor of Engineering Practice, Construction & Engineering Management, Purdue University, as we explore best practices and technology for improving productivity, and how these can help better align the overall interests of capital project owners and contractors alike.
In this webinar, topics covered include:
- Enhancing operational efficiencies by improving communication between owners and contractors
- Strengthening scenario planning by involving construction and procurement teams in the design phase
- Leveraging planning tools to improve operational and tactical success
- Optimizing processes with more effective change order management
- Empowering project management teams with the right technology tools at the right time
Join us as we discuss with AACE how to keep track of your projects' health with today's EVM.
A solid construction contract is the cornerstone for any successful capital project. However, executing one can be complicated, resulting in wasted time and money along with increased risk. But there are steps you can take to avoid leaving out key considerations that are often overlooked when navigating and developing construction contracts.
Join InEight EVP for APAC Rob Bryant along with Australian Constructors Association CEO Jon Davies and HWL Ebsworth Construction Partner Jane Wild as they explore best practices for proactively navigating, creating and capitalizing on construction contracts.
In this webinar, you will learn how to:
- Negotiate more efficiently upfront by bringing relevant information and key stakeholders together early on.
- Set realistic pricing and payment timelines with the core elements of a well-written construction contract.
- Enhance communication and trust amongst stakeholders as you foster project transparency.
- Eliminate risk by knowing your options should you need to enforce your contract.
Building information modeling (BIM) is misunderstood and underutilized in the construction industry. According to the JBKnowledge Report, over half of North American companies decline to bid on projects with BIM. This seems like a shortsighted approach because when used to its full potential, BIM can help prevent costly errors and create savings in resources, money and time.
So join us for this webinar during which a panel of BIM experts will reveal the true power of BIM and what it can do for your construction business now.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- The advantages BIM provides throughout the entire life cycle of your project.
- Why you don’t need a “BIM Guru” to adopt and implement its benefits.
- Methods for using BIM as a production, collaboration, and post-build powerhouse.
- How the future of BIM is shaping up and how you can capitalize on it now.
Interested in shifting from being data-driven to information-driven? Attend our live webinar and interact with a panel of thought leaders as they discuss the value and impact of data visualizations, aka “data viz.”
InEight’s Catie Williams and Natalie Takacs will be joined by data viz expert Mike Moore who will run through visualization best practices and how to tackle organizational change management. As an extra bonus, you’ll also get some go-to resources for getting started in data viz.
Among the other key takeaways will be:
- How to handle accessibility in data viz and show positive/negative values.
- Visual examples of do’s and don’ts of data viz.
- How you drive change to use data more and drive adoption of data visualization, and more.
It’s well known the construction industry has lagged behind others when it comes to adopting technology. But with the rise of digital solutions for construction document management, it’s time that notion gets the wrecking ball!
Join InEight VP of Industry Solutions David Wagner and learn about the available collaborative document management solutions that ensure contractor success. You’ll hear how technology supports:
- Quickly finding the right project document.
- Collaboration and communication across the extended project team.
- Ensuring everyone is using the most current documentation.
- Providing greater visibility into project data and status.
