Drive Cultural Change, Continuous Improvement & Scalable Impact, Unlocking Profitability & Efficiency Through Operational Excellence
The construction industry is becoming increasingly difficult to operate and grow within despite the increasing opportunity. Regardless of increases in technology adoption and improved working practises, productivity has continued to slowly decrease, and the stakes are higher than ever. In this current challenging environment, chasing operational excellence isn't just best practice; it's a necessary driver to maintain competitive advantage for firms that want to scale, innovate, and lead.
In an industry where inefficiencies cost millions as well as drain project and business momentum, only those who continuously evolve their operations will reap the rewards of the current market. Firms must move beyond simply managing projects to fundamentally fuel business transformation through bringing together strategy, workforce and digitalization, driving alignment across teams and systems to deliver projects faster, safer, and smarter.
That’s why the 7th Annual Advancing Construction Operational Excellence Summit is essential for Operational Executives to connect and progress how their respective firms are run. We return to unite North America’s most forward-thinking contractors and operational leaders committed to developing futureproof leadership strategies and cultural change. Whether you are shaping enterprise strategy or driving site-level performance, this conference provides the forum to learn, network, and harness people and technology to eliminate inefficiency and unlock profitability. Join us and gain the actionable insights and momentum to lead change, run efficiently and win better work in 2026 and beyond.
