Why You Should Attend This Event

Why This Matters

Project cost is under more scrutiny than at any other point in recent times due to the challenges in the financial market. Construction cost has begun to level out, but there is increased pressure to deliver quality product on schedule and on budget. There are a number of approaches to this from process & planning oriented, to wholesale construction program variances in the market today. We will discuss what project managers and developers are attempting on the front end, as well as how elements such as adaptive reuse, the use of mass timber, modular construction & prefabrication are doing to alleviate cost concerns and maximize the speed of deliveries. Where does the Queen City stand in terms of adoption, and what have those with projects under way or completed learned in their attempts to optimize the building process today?

 

Join us as we cover the most pressing issues in the building landscape to better equip you in your search for your next deals. 

 

What You'll Learn

  • In what ways is the construction industry adjusting prospective project schedules for realism and efficiency?
  • What levers can be pulled to maintain project cost from the planning through execution phases of development cycles?
  • What buildings are viable candidates for adaptive reuse and where are they proliferating in Charlotte today?
  • What will it take for the market to adopt the use of prefabrication and modular construction at scale locally?
  • How can Artificial Intelligence aid the building process and how is it being implemented at an early stage?
  • Which innovative building practices are leading to cost effectiveness and what roadblocks can lead the best intentioned programs to become more costly?
