"I currently haven't found a use case in which I haven't been able to build."

That was Brett Adams on what Palantir Foundry can do in construction.

This week on Bricks & Bytes we sat down with Dan Julien (Chief Revenue Officer) and Brett Adams (Forward Deployed Engineer and Head of Construction) of ForgeSight, the i4C born team implementing Palantir Foundry across the AEC industry, to cut through the rumours about what Palantir is actually doing in construction.

Tune in to find out about:

✅ Whether Palantir Foundry can really replace your ERP

✅ What "forward deployed engineering" actually means on a job site

✅ Whether Procore, Autodesk and Trimble survive a Palantir world

✅ How a contractor rebuilt its entire operation on Foundry in roughly a year
