While construction companies have long excelled at solving problems and adapting to challenges, Canadian stakeholders have historically been reluctant to do so through new technologies. “We have been an industry that is fairly characterized as slow to evolve when it comes to technology,” Mollenhauer says, emphasizing that the industry’s resiliency and growth are increasingly dependent on an ability to embrace innovation. Herein, he adds, the committee will also work to generate interest and awareness for the latest technologies and promote their uptake throughout the various construction sectors. “Technologies like AI are vitally important investments that employers have to make, especially at a time when we’re all being challenged to find innovative new ways to improve productivity, be more competitive and solve the extraordinary number of challenges that we have in our projects,” Mollenhauer says. “Our members’ needs are changing. We need to be progressive and look for new ways to help and support our members, and one of the ways we’re doing that is through this new committee.” Overall, says Casaletto, by bringing together industry expertise, practical experience and technology insight, TCA’s Technology Committee is meant to help contractors navigate one of the most significant transformations the industry has ever faced. “At the end of the day, I want the committee to produce things that members can actually use, including research, case studies, benchmarking, educational content and practical guidance that helps organizations make decisions that actually benefit their business and their clients.” ◄
