Prefabrication has shifted from an optional innovation to a core operational strategy for delivering mechanical and plumbing systems at the speed today’s market demands. With increasing project complexity, shrinking labour pools, and tighter schedules, contractors need approaches that reliably increase capacity and improve accuracy.

This workshop will gather experts to discuss:

  • Build a scalable prefabrication operation; this will cover shop layout, labour planning, pricing, hidden costs, KPIs, workflows that maximise productivity
  • Identify high value prefabrication opportunities that boost capacity, shorten schedules, and ensure BIM-to-fab accuracy
  • Strengthen cross-functional alignment and organizational buy-in by reliably demonstrating prefabs efficiency gains and competitive advantages
