This session provides foundational coordination and planning frameworks for teams engaging with prefabrication and modular construction projects.
This session addresses planning and coordination practices; it does not constitute structural, engineering, or manufacturing guidance, and organizations should consult qualified engineering professionals for structural and manufacturing-specific determinations.
Attendees will look at how project communication, timeline planning, and milestone tracking need to adapt when a significant portion of construction happens off-site, in a factory environment, rather than on the job site itself.
Why you should Attend:
Teams that approach modular construction coordination the same way they've always coordinated traditional builds tend to hit avoidable delays, since off-site manufacturing timelines and on-site assembly sequencing follow a fundamentally different logic than stick-built construction. Understanding these coordination differences before your first modular project, rather than during it, prevents costly missteps in scheduling and communication. This session gives your team that foundational coordination understanding.
Areas Covered in the Session:
- Why labor shortages are accelerating the shift toward prefabrication and modular construction
- Core coordination differences between traditional and modular construction projects
- Planning realistic timelines that account for off-site manufacturing schedules
- Managing shipping and logistics coordination for prefabricated components
- Structuring communication between site teams and off-site manufacturing partners
- Sequencing on-site assembly milestones around delivery schedules
- Common coordination mistakes teams make on their first modular project
- Building an internal coordination checklist for prefabrication-based projects
Who Will Benefit:
- Project Managers
- Construction Directors
- Preconstruction Managers
- Program Managers
- Business Owners
- Procurement Leaders
