The 2014 AGC Technology Showcase, held on March 4, 2014, at the association's national convention in Las Vegas, drew a large crowd, suggesting that many construction companies face the same problem: How to keep supervisors in the field and out of the trailer?
Where are your supervisors? Are they in the field supervising craftsmen or equipment operators? Or are they in the office trailer reviewing drawings, writing RFIs, sending an email/fax or something else that’s keeping them out of the field? The showcase featured presentations from two AGC contractor members who struggled with the same questions and came up with solutions to address the issues.
Rob McKinney of J.M. Wilkerson Construction, an AGC Georgia member, was one of the presenters. If you were unable to attend the convention or his session, you can view his presentation (
