In this epsiode, we explore the realities of digital adoption in construction - the challenges, the friction points and the leadership mindset required to connect IT and operations effectively.
Brian shares lessons from the field on simplifying systems, engaging frontline teams and shifting the focus from usage metrics to measurable productivity.
Topics covered:
-
Digital must serve operations - Adoption only works when frontline teams see clear, practical value.
-
Friction blocks progress - If systems are hard to access or slower than paper, people will find workarounds.
- Complex tech stacks that slow digital transformation - Consolidation beats layering more point solutions onto an already complex environment.
- IT stategies that reflect operational reality - Strong cybersecurity and governance matter. But digital transformation succeeds when technology is practical, accessible and aligned with how teams actually work.
- The true measure of success? - Adoption metrics are useful - but real digital impact shows up in improved efficiency, better collaboration and stronger operational performance.
Digital transformation doesn’t succeed by adding more tools. It succeeds when technology makes work easier, faster and more productive. If digital adoption has stalled in your organisation, or you’re under pressure to prove its impact, this episode will sharpen your approach.
