The Construction Shared Pains Podcast

Have you wondered why the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry continues to struggle with stagnant productivity, cost overruns and schedule delays despite technology advancements?

Listen in as host Sasha Reed [@AlohaSasha], together with field reporter Nathan Wood [@nathancwood], and show producer Dan Smolilo [@Construct_Techy], interview AEC industry and technology professionals to digest today's technology topics and debate different strategies to address our #SharedPains (i.e. - the "non-tech" barriers preventing digital collaboration across the project supply-chain) and deliver transformational change.
