Recent advances in construction program controls have transformative potential, but success requires a thoughtful approach that distinguishes between data and intelligence. Join Osama Abdelfatah, Regional Program Controls Director, Americas at AECOM, and Rick Rients, Director of Client Services at InEight, as they explore how to effectively use increasingly large volumes of digital program controls data. This discussion will dive into how integrated project management information systems (PMIS) go beyond data processing, turning data into intelligence and insights that drive successful project delivery. The key: Harmonizing data to ensure it’s not just abundant but actionable. Register for the webinar to:

• • Understand the limits of traditional data-centric approaches in program controls.
• • Discover the benefits of integrated, intelligence-driven solutions.
• • Explore the theory and implementation of a controls engine using a real-world case study of a major program in the US.
• • See how the shift from disparate systems to a single source of truth enables more informed, strategic decision-making.

Join InEight's Martin Croteau and our panel of industry guests as we discuss how aspiring organizations can lead successful technology implementations. "Mastering Construction Tech Adoption with Change Management" explores the relationship between new tools and organizational change, and the critical role leaders play in the outcomes of both. This conversation will touch on:

• Building change management into the software selection process
• Making an ongoing case for the change you're pursuing
• Understanding and addressing team concerns
• Defining business success alongside implementation success
• Change management best practices
• Lessons learned and pitfalls to avoid

Register today and discover the key steps and strategies you need to make your next transition as seamless as possible.

Collaborative approaches are driving a transformative shift in the ever-evolving field of project management. Technology needs to keep up. Construction professionals know what it will take – recent InEight research shows that over 85% agree that real-time project insights, instantaneous team communication, and improved risk identification are critical for project success. So how can we get there? Explore the practical adoption of collaborative approaches to construction planning with Nate St. John, Vice President for Scheduling & Risk Management at InEight. Join this webinar to learn about:

• • Why it’s critical to adopt collaborative planning as the industry shifts, including a look at the inherent benefits and the challenges that must be navigated.
• • What it takes in realistic terms to shift to a collaborative approach to scheduling and planning.
• • Strategies for fostering team collaboration, ensuring seamless communication, and enhanced project transparency.
• • How technology can empower collective decision making, with the ultimate outcome of minimizing project risks through shared insights and deeply informed decisions.

Bid too high, lose the job. Bid too low, lose your margins. What's a profit-minded, growth-oriented company to do? Join our conversation with Quanta Services' Jody Greer, Director of Estimating & Project Controls, to hear how Quanta modernized its estimating work to balance their win rare with accuracy and scale their estimating function in a fast-paced environment. You'll learn first-hand the details of how they transformed their estimating process, including during their acquisition of operating units, allowing them to expand into new international markets. In short, how they learned to bid it like they build it, and how you can too. Key Learning Objectives:

• Standardizing estimating processes for growth without losing expertise and autonomy across your operating units
• Gaining complete control of your cost breakdown structure, i.e., estimating based on actual work procedures that are used to do the job
• Meeting customer bid requirements on your terms, giving your clients what they need without giving up your proprietary data and maintaining your estimating process
• Enhancing the accuracy of your estimating team while increasing their productivity
• Embracing the right "bid it-built it" technology, increasing confidence and improving hit ratio

In an industry steeped in tradition, we are on the cusp of an exciting, AI-driven transformation. Join us for part two of this provocative webinar series as we examine AI's potential within a cautious construction landscape. Explore how current research is reshaping perceptions, propelling AI from skepticism to strategic advantage. See how advanced data integration fuels AI's capabilities and unlocks the doors to precise scope, cost, and schedule management. InEight’s Rob Bryant returns as moderator for part two. He will be joined by Ajoy Bhattacharya of Microsoft, Dr. Ali Khaloo of Aren, and Professor Eduard Hovy of Melbourne Connect as they discuss real-world success stories on leveraging AI’s power. In this webinar, you’ll learn:

• How current research is altering traditional perceptions and paving the way for AI’s acceptance in construction.
• How advanced data integration empowers AI and propels it toward a revolutionary new level of project management.
• Steps to harness AI’s capabilities and foster growth within a traditionally skeptical construction sector.
