Episode summary: This episode explains the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and why it changes what "adopting A.I." means for contractors. With agents now able to connect into project systems like Procore, scheduling tools, and cost databases, the leadership question shifts from chatbot access to agent governance.

What you'll learn:- What MCP is and why the report compares it to USB-C for A.I. models — one standard protocol that lets agents reach into many systems without proprietary connectors.- How Rogers-O'Brien's Project Compass uses MCP-style connectors to check open RFIs, query staffing data, and draft documents from a single interface.- Why construction's multi-party delivery model makes agent governance harder than in single-company environments, and what questions leadership teams need to answer now.- What Microsoft's "agentic web" vision means for construction — agents on different platforms handing off context across preconstruction, safety, and operations.

Who this is for:- Construction executives, innovation/digital leaders, operations, and IT/security teams who want a pragmatic way to prioritize A.I. pilots.
