Factory to Field: Mastering Modular Construction for Accelerated Delivery - 1 PDH
This essential session cuts through the noise to deliver a precise analysis of Industrialized Construction (IC) and Modular Construction—the critical paradigm shift necessary to fix construction's core challenges.
It’s clear to see that Traditional Construction is broken, IC has the potential to innovate and fix some of the inherent problems that Construction projects face. We will define the IC movement, detailing the economic drivers and performance mandates (Why IC) that push institutional owners, like the DoD, to prioritize off-site manufacturing. Discover how collaboration is turbocharged by initiatives from the SAME Alternative Construction Methods (ACM) groups and NAVFAC, specifically leveraging Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA), Lean Design-Build, and standardized designs to enable factory production. Through vivid case studies (Citizen M Hotels, NIH Modular), we will demonstrate IC's immense power—delivering projects faster, safer, and with superior quality—while providing a pragmatic view of the necessary market and regulatory transformations.

IGE Roundtable: State of Artificial Intelligence in the A/E/C Industry - 2 PDH, 2 AIA LU
Last year, SAME’s Industry-Government Engagement on AI opened the door to an important conversation about how artificial intelligence is transforming the A/E/C industry and the federal agencies that are leaning into it. This year’s session builds on that foundation with new insights, updated data, and a real-world example of AI in federal project delivery.
The program will feature a presentation and Q&A from the National Institute of Building Sciences AI project with NAVFAC, followed by a discussion. Live polling will capture how the landscape has evolved since 2024, revealing progress, barriers, and opportunities for collaboration. The session will conclude with a call for volunteers to join the development of SAME AI White Papers, focused on data sharing, compliance, and to guide future engagement between industry and government as we move from exploration to implementation of AI in A/E/C.
