Does modular construction eliminate the need for a general contractor? Not even close—but the role transforms significantly.

This episode examines how the GC's scope, skills, and responsibilities shift in modular projects.

Topics covered:

• What changes: site scope shrinks to foundation, utilities, set, and button-up
• What doesn't change: coordination responsibility between factory and field
• The GC as translator between manufacturing and construction cultures
• Skills that become more important: logistics, QC, and schedule management
• Why GCs who run modular like traditional construction struggle

Modular is a different game. The GCs who succeed recognize that—and adapt their project management approach accordingly.
