Fixing Field-to-Office Communication on Major Projects

On most major projects, what's happening on site and what the office sees are rarely the same.

Site teams are reacting to what's in front of them: changing conditions, emerging issues, and on-the-spot decisions. That information has to make its way back to the office, but by the time it does, it's already incomplete, delayed, or stripped of context. The result is a project where things go wrong quietly, and nobody has the records to show when or why.

Harry Rushworth sits down with Marco Andino and Deo Oñate, practitioners who've worked through this problem on large-scale infrastructure and data center projects, for an honest conversation about why it's so persistent, and what actually makes a difference.

We’ll cover:

• Why this problem keeps resurfacing
• What consistently falls through the gap between site and office
• Why it becomes more dangerous as projects grow in size and complexity
• Why most attempts to fix communication fall short
• How to set up communication between site and office that actually works

Bring your questions! The last portion of the session is open for discussion.
