The College of William and Mary and Ferguson Enterprises announced a partnership between the two organizations as they created the Ferguson Innovation Challenge on Oct. 26.
Teams of 4-6 students from both graduate and undergraduate schools and different majors will work together to solve what Ferguson believes to be a major issue facing the industry: How to maximize the amount of time contracted construction workforces are doing billable work.
Is it a lack of preparation before going to the site? Not enough skilled laborers? Teams will have to find out what they believe the issue is and find a way to solve it.
