At the 20th annual LCI Congress, James Pease and Brittanie Campbell-Turner present on the topic of “How to Increase Adoption of the IPD Model by Using Blockchain.” In this presentation, James and I talked about how it’s unquestionably the future to incorporate blockchain and smart contracts with construction contracting. In this presentation, we focus on integrated project delivery contracting although blockchain can impact / streamline any contracting model pending the algorithms are built correctly. James and I decided to focus IPD specifically because of the similarities of transparency contracting with both IPD and a distributed ledger technology.
Find out more about James Pease: James Pease, Regional Manager of Facility and Property Services with Sutter Health, and integrated health system in Northern California spends between between 500M and 700M on their annual capital program. James is an experienced practitioner of the IPD model for 11+ years at Sutter Health. James also developed an education platform at http://LeanIPD.com (LeanIPD.com), where he has been sharing through webinars and blog posts different elements about how to be successful in running lean projects.

Which comes with humility and self-awareness, with the ability to Return back to joy. It comes with vulnerability and transparency. It comes with being yourself. Have you ever heard the saying 'flying by the seat of your pants'? According to phrases.org, "This is an early aviation parlance. Aircraft initially had few navigation aids and flying was accomplished by means of the pilot's judgment. ... The old flying expression of 'flies by the seat of his trousers' was explained by Larry Conner, means going aloft without instruments, radio or other such luxuries." What makes a leader? You cannot fly by the seat of your pants and expect to meet success. What I mean by that is - if you don't know the measurement of what you starting from with you not know the measure in which you intend to improve. What I’m excited about is intentional leadership. Each one of the people on this episode spoke with me at the LCI congress as this episode is a continuation of the LCI recap. Each person has a different take on what leadership looks like and how they serve their communities to take them to self-sufficiency. I wanted to make special mention that the first voice you will hear in the in the intro - the voice of Henry Nutt, LCI - Pioneer Award Winner. He received that award because of his ability to open up pathways for others to also be able to define their own leadership capability - encouraging others to do things based on who they are and who they want to be. In turn, this results in achieving beyond status-quo because you are not trying to be like someone else. Your value comes with being authentic. He tells us of the steps he took in becoming a pioneer and what we can learn from it. www.constructrr.com/lci2019recap Music By: Epic Music Supervision

Part 1 of LCI Congress 2018 Recap Bruce Cousins, Managing Partner at Sword Integrated Building Solutions. Design is a complex and iterative approach to collecting specifications of building system components and detailing the vision of a structure meant to be constructed. Its a little bit like taking a train. You should know both the destination and the direction you should be taking before you start on the journey, you should know the fare, you should know how long it should take to get there. Many of us come together to reach a unique destination, but we have to figure which station we are leaving from. Bruce shares his train ride with us. Bruce talks about his mission on how to improving the Last Planner through better Design Management.

In this talk, I discussed the changing age we are in. One that is meant to take advantage of the network platform economic model that is affording companies to grow in valuations beyond any financial analysts expectation.

Thomas Wendling is an advisor to the https://iebc.co/ (Integrated Engineering Blockchain Consortium), (IEBC) a professional systems engineer at http://www.jacobs.com/ (Jacobs Engineering), and a co-founder of https://coengineers.io/ (CoEngineers.io), a blockchain engineering platform cooperative. I spoke with Dan Robles from the https://iebc.co/ (Integrated Engineering Blockchain Consortium), (IEBC) in episode 66 at https://www.constructrr.com/ep66 (EP 66), who birthed the idea of an engineering resume that promotes training to fill the skill gap and reduces the risk on engineering design. I’ve met Thomas because he is an advisor to the IEBC and we are working together contributing to https://coengineers.io/ (CoEngineers.io), a blockchain engineering platform cooperative. We talk about this economic value model that can help to reduce risk by understanding the intrinsic value of a person who has a skill regardless of background. Before we cover CoEng, I discuss with Thomas about what has been doing in his career with Jacobs. We talk about the current state of infrastructure - the notion of obsolescence of physical or capital property or assets, and what happens when a property exist for longer than its intended life with less maintenance than ideal.

Chris Dorian is the CEO and Founder at BuildSort, where BuildSort is a blockchain technology that assists with the building and construction industry to support supply chain, documentation, tracking project management metrics, in addition to integration with BIM. In episode 57, Kimon Onuma talked about http://www.constructrr.com/ep57/ (Creating Agility and Efficiency by using Architecture as a Platform) - that episode is very useful to understand what BuildSort provides because we cover how to make the data in BIM models useful. Building architects and engineers are using building information modeling however, there’s a lot of rework in the system in order for the data in the models to be useful. The general contractor, trades, and suppliers often work together to rebuild review and approve usable BIM models for their scope of work. If companies were able to sell their data back and forth with one another on a platform it would reduce the amount of rework in the industry and THIS is what BuildSort provides. Chris has a background in structural engineering design and values the use of BIM. We talk about that and how BuildSort may be able to support a solution to get us to BIM Level 3. It is great to hear his perspective.

Jon Gordon, the author of quite a few best sellers - including The Energy Bus You, Win in the Locker Room First, The No Complaining Rule, and the most recent book that was released last year, The Power of Positive Leadership - speaks with us about positive leadership. Jon, not only is a great author and a sought-after keynote speaker but he has consulted with college and professional sports teams and large companies - some of which include the LA Dodgers, Atlanta Falcons, Campbell Soup, Dell, Publix, Southwest Airlines, LA Clippers, Miami Heat, Pittsburgh Pirates, Northwestern Mutual, Bayer, and West Point Academy - Teaching them how and why they should live with more vision, passion, positivity, and purpose. Because we discuss building more trusting relationships, we talk about respecting people and exceeding end users desires, I thought we’d take a step back and talk about positive leadership. We need so much more leadership from all the levels and we have a fun discussion on how to do that more effectively. Jon and I have a fun conversation on how to do that.

I so am grateful to all of the guests that I’ve interviewed this year! I’m so grateful to all of you who were mentioned in this episode (see references below). To summarize what we talk about in this episode: First, we have to recognize the status of the industry. Change is happening. It’s inevitable. The need to lower risk from the owner perspective MUST happen. We talk about demography, and the impacts on Corporate Real Estate (CRE), buildings and infrastructure, attracting millennials, recruiting and retention. How the change in culture is affecting retail, but the economy as a whole, and policy. And last but not least we talk about how companies are looking at sustainability and health in their organizations. You’ll be hearing from a few more guests in part two of the 2017 Constructrr Podcast recap next week.

Karen Martin helps organizations use clarity, focus, discipline, and engagement to achieve higher levels of performance on financial, operational, and cultural fronts. She is president of The Karen Martin Group, Inc., a global consulting firm. Karen and her team have helped organizations such as AT&T, Chevron, GlaxoSmithKline, Epson, International Monetary Fund, Lenovo, Mayo Clinic, and the United States Department of Homeland Security learn more effective ways to design work systems, grow market share, solve business problems, and accelerate improvement. She is the Shingo Prize-winning author of The Outstanding Organization and coauthor of three additional business performance improvement books. Through her global consulting projects, keynote speeches, and work with hundreds of organizations, Karen has seen first-hand how a pervasive lack of clarity strangles business performance and erodes employee engagement. Ambiguity is the corporate default state, a condition so prevalent that "tolerance for ambiguity" has become a cliched job requirement. It doesn't have to be that way. We talk about why some organizations don’t have clarity, the pitfalls of not setting a clear foundation and relying on ambiguous goals. And lastly, we talk about some of the recommendations she has for better organization clarity.

Paul Doherty, president and CEO of The Digit Group Inc., a leading Smart Cities design and solutions company, actively applies the use of blockchain in his projects. Paul has been known to say that “Blockchain is as valuable as the brick and motor itself.” This is just one of the technologies he recommends in his recipe for creation of smart cities. Paul Doherty is a Registered Architect, software entrepreneur, and developer. In the interview, you'll see that Paul is very passionate about the AEC industry and a very expressive person. So, uh, if you have small children nearby you may want to note there are few expletives, however, Paul is a prominent and highly rated speaker that will blow your socks off. We discuss blockchain at a high level, but the main focus is about how Smart Cities and the use of Paul’s guiding principles for innovative, high performance urban environments address some of the major considerations for the future. ... This is the 1st interview in a 5 Part Series where I interview guests about the use of Blockchain in Construction. Some of our exciting guests include consultants, lawyers, designers, researchers of blockchain in the Architectural, engineering and construction space. If you don’t know what blockchain is yet, don't worry. I will explain and provide resources for you to learn more about it. The main thing you should know is that, Blockchain is changing governments, healthcare, energy and the financial industry in ways we could never have imagined before. Large technology companies such as IBM, Intel, and Microsoft have developed blockchain platform initiative. This year alone, over 4.5 billion dollars have been invested in the private sector worldwide for blockchain development. Blockchain is a big deal.

Bruce is the Founder and Chairman of Locus Robotics and Quiet Logistics. We talk about practical implementation of robots for this this day in-age, this decade. We had an easy conversation about how he first encountered robotics and how he built his expertise in software for robots specifically for warehousing. We even talk through real estate management, e-commerce trends and how this impacts the potential for warehousing in malls. We talk about the realistic expectations of driverless cars and how sensor tech may not be ready to navigate for the general utilization for many years to come. So many nuggets!! I had such a fun time. He has a way of making you feel like it is story time when he talks about his experiences, but he is yet so logical and practical. I think you will really enjoy this interview.

John Pemberton There is a movement happening, we as industry are getting smarter. John and I talk about the continuous improvement movement and relevant data that supports what makes projects have the highest likelihood on being ahead of schedule and under budget. You will see what I mean I get into the research. John comes to the idea of Lean construction with an Owners mindset having been at Intel as the global construction group General Mgr. he understands that the most cared about metrics are schedule and budget. Also he considers himself a Continuous improvement junkie due to his manufacturing background at Intel. Two awesome qualities that make his perspective relevant for the Consructrr audience.

Chris Wilson. Chris is the owner and CEO of two social enterprises in Baltimore City. One is a Construction General Contracting firm called Barclay’s Investment corporation. The other Furniture manufacturing company called, house of Davinci where they produce high-end furniture. One of the furniture pieces in the new furniture line will be commissioned by Red Bull! The reason why I wanted to speak with Chris is because I’m looking for companies who are giving to their communities – you will see me interview more companies that are interested in uplifting people, who are positively impactful. They are helping humanity by: Paying it forward and giving back Making the world a better place to be & Loving People And Chris Wilson is because he tends to hire people who need help the most, unemployed – returning citizens who just came out of prison. If you haven’t heard last week’s episode with Ken Gronbach, we talked about demographics of the USA. If you are interested in this topic, feel free to check out the last episode, constructrr.com/ep34. One thing I ask Ken about is diversity and demographic trends in America. He mentions 2 things: latino immigrants have been contributing to the economy in really important way and are a growing population that we should be paying attention to. And the black male population that is imprisoned touches millennial, Generation X and Baby Boomer generations. We need have a plan for that. No one knows what to do with that population and no one wants to talk about. This is where Chris Wilson’s story comes in.

Webb school of Construction. Let me tell you, I felt like I was being taught all over again as he clearly and concisely breaks down concepts, uses logic to describe human interaction, and makes plain what is complex. Dr. Kashiwagi is someone you may not agree with at first listen, but you’ve listened to my episodes thus far, if you haven’t, you know that all I want to do is give you practical knowledge on how to lower risk on your projects. He talks about how in an unconventional way – which is very much in line with top performance, lean, efficiency, respect, trust, and last but not least, transparency.
