New Zealand's slow to adopt new tech, and construction's slower still. AI has everyone curious... but a lot of what passes for "doing AI" is already the wrong track. This session skips the hype and gets to what's actually worth your time and money: the work in your business that no longer needs a human and where to start. For anyone who's been meaning to move but hasn't.
Explore how unifying project data and leveraging AI-driven tools are transforming productivity, communication, and efficiency in the construction industry. In the current environment, where schedules are tight, projects are complex, and stakeholders are dispersed, seamless data flow and intelligent automation are defining project success. The session will illustrate practical strategies for connecting field and office data, automating routine processes, and rapidly identifying issues or opportunities.
This session will empower construction professionals with an understanding of how connected data ecosystems and AI capabilities are not just future ambitions, but tools readily available today to drive project productivity and improve collaboration and will show how top organisations are leading this change.
The panel discussion will focus on breaking down information silos between the field, office, and all project partners; real-world adoption of digital tools (e.g. cloud platforms, mobile integrations, AI-enhanced dashboards); the impact of data standardisation on efficiency, quality, and safety; and lessons learned and best practices for tech adoption and cultural change on construction projects.
Construction businesses across New Zealand are asking the same question. Finding and keeping good workers is becoming harder, and there isn't a simple answer. Join Cameron Gray (Licensed Immigration Adviser) and Tanya Gray (Filipino Recruitment Expert) from People Inc Group for an open discussion about workforce shortages, hiring challenges, overseas recruitment, and what construction businesses are doing to build more reliable teams. Bring your questions. This session is an opportunity to talk about your situation and identify the approach that best fits your business.
