The Preconstruction Podcast’s Post

#Women in #Construction and #Engineering When you read those words aloud it represents so much along with other roles in construction . Why? There are so many female talent in our construction businesses, or those who have formed construction businesses of their own. Those who have navigated so many obstacles to do their specialist roles, some who still just quietly do what they do with passion. Some who have followed in the footsteps of family owned companies or just wanted to do something different, which will have lasting impact to their future career and the world around us that #constructionindustry is instrumental to. Most of all those who want to be role models for others. For three decades and more I have seen so many changes in the construction industry, from technology, to methods of pricing work to the actual build. There have been some really excitingly high moments, and then some that are sad. Never are two days the same on a construction project, or back at the office across all the various work streams key to running the business. We need more #diverse representation in construction businesses, therefore I will be doing more “shouting from the roof tops” as to why a career in construction is amazing, because we need more talent. Big task ahead as I look forward to judging duties at this year for Women In Construction & Engineering Awards. I know it’s going to be a hard one indeed. #diversitycarol #womeninengineering #womeninconstruction #womeninarchitecture

Wincanton’s Head of Development for Infrastructure Karine Bartle recently joined an industry panel. She discussed why “Good logistics are a crucial, and often underrated, part of a construction project. So much time and money can be wasted waiting for materials to be delivered which is completely avoidable if greater consideration is given to logistics at an early stage” Read a summary of the panellists’ views on ‘Future of Major Projects’ below 👇 #CECONF24 | #Infrastructure | #majorprojects | #construction | #infrastructuredevelopment

Join us in congratulating Kerry Mast on yet another successful loan transaction, starting off the week strong! Kerry recently had the privilege of securing a $7.5 million loan for an acquisition and renovation adaptive reuse project. Notably, this loan offers an 18-month term and a 65% loan-to-value ratio based on the completed project's value. This project involved a fully speculative build-out of an investment property that required a bridge lending solution to bridge the funding gap until fully stabilized. Situated in the beautiful city of Charlotte, it involves the transformation of an abandoned industrial site into a vibrant center city retail and office space. This venture will undoubtedly contribute to the already exceptional value and quality of life enjoyed by residents in Charlotte. Even amidst the challenges of the current lending environment, LJC continues to excel in successfully guiding our clients to the closing table!   Connect with Kerry to discuss your financing goals here: https://lnkd.in/eSij__Kv #acquistionfunding #commercialrealestate #crefinanceunleashed #bridgingthegap #gapfunding #capitalmarkets #commerciallending #commercialfinancing #commercialrealestateinvesting #crefinance #capitaladvisory #propertyfinancing #cremarket

What an insightful and diverse discussion. Amazing what we can learn when bringing together and challenging our views across the industry, both at a macro and micro scale across the whole project delivery lifecycle. Quick fire takeaways: 🔹 Make Standardisation the ‘norm’ ; ask for it in procurement and challenge delivery partners to push the boundaries 🔹 Prioritise which outcomes projects are delivering to, to enable quicker decision making around aligned interests. And tell stakeholders why you’ve prioritised in that way! 🔹Incentivise, engage with, and transform our supply chains to enable them to be successful and lower barriers to entry for new entrants who can be positive disrupters Thanks to John Oliver for excellent and on time chairing and to the views of Karine Bartle Emma Whigham James Franklin who have educated me on all things productivity in their worlds. #CECONF24 #construction #constructingexcellence #productivity #insightful #learning
