October 2021 Modularization & Prefabrication Analyst Call: Managing the Risk of Modular

10/27 2021 10am CT. Modularization & Prefabrication Modularization & Prefabrication is transforming the construction industry. It is arriving at a great time, with construction productivity at all-time lows with pressures from supply chains, rising material costs, and labor scarcity. Placing construction processes offsite is becoming more common as modularity permits faster onsite installation, leaner supply chains, and limiting costly redesigns. At scale, this has the potential to reduce construction costs by 20%.

The benefits of prefab and modular are well known but what about the risks? In this session, we will explore:
  • The role of the designer and the design in prefabrication.
  • Common mistakes contractors make when developing their fabrication organization and facilities.
  • What systems are required to effectively execute on a prefab strategy.
  • How to sell the value and cost of prefab to an owner.
  • The role of VDC in your prefab approach.
