Construction Disconnected: Aligning Technology Investment with Needs in the Field
Wednesday, April 17, 2019
2 p.m. Eastern
Webinar overview:
Equipping construction teams with mobile access to project data and information is no longer a nice to have, but a critical business priority. Results from a recent survey of nearly 600 construction leaders show that while firms have begun to purchase technology with the needs of field teams in mind, the severity of costs associated with poor data and miscommunication on the job site continues to be overlooked. In this on-demand webinar, we present joint research from FMI and PlanGrid on what construction teams actually need when it comes to technology and why firms often struggle with adoption in the field.
In this webinar, you learn:
- How construction professionals spend (and lose) time, and the associated costs
- The causes of poor data and miscommunication, and what it's costing businesses and the industry
- How technology adoption suffers when end users are not involved in investment decisions
