Construction project managers are increasingly overwhelmed by unstructured, fragmented information spread across emails, documents, schedules, and digital platforms. While recent AI tools promise efficiency gains, most simply accelerate existing workflows rather than rethinking how project intelligence is formed. This session explores how AI agents can move beyond “copilot” automation to act as an intelligence layer across project data, reducing cognitive load and supporting better, earlier decision-making in complex construction environments. -

The presentation takes a deep dive into the retrofit debate; deep green, light green, do nothing.
As best practice has driven operational energy use as low as practically possible, industry focus is shifting to upfront (embodied) carbon. We use a real world example of a residential retrofit to show the quantum of difference that is possible in reducing whole of life carbon emissions.
