For decades, construction decisions have often been made based on gut instinct. But the industry is on the cusp of a significant shift. In this episode, we talk with Paul Hedgepath, Director of Virtual Construction at MJ Harris Construction, who has over 25 years of experience navigating the evolution of construction technology. Paul shares his journey, from handing out early iPads to superintendents, to leveraging BIM, laser scanning, and 360 photos to catch problems before they get covered up. Drawing on insights from Procore's Future State of Construction report, we explore how technologies like AI are enabling contractors to play a much larger role in informing constructability and democratizing the design process. We discuss the potential for wearables to provide real-time information to field workers and how capturing data and lessons learned creates accountability and transparency. Paul provides a candid view on the timeline for these changes and emphasizes that continuous learning and listening to the guys in the field are key to successful technology adoption
