Winning over the specifier is the challenge for many building product manufacturers and suppliers. How do you get the specifier on board and what is the best way to keep the specifier on board? Mark and Phil share their thoughts on what they’ve seen works best along with methods and tips for getting product specified on projects to win the sale along with creating long term relationships that count.
Join Mark and Phil on this episode as they tackle the impact of skilled labour shortages in construction and how this is impacting the future of building across the USA, Australia and much of the western world. They deep dive into why skilled labour careers are currently not attracting the next generation of youth and how these labour shortages are creating inefficiencies that are forcing higher construction costs that are fast becoming one of the leading concerns for industry bodies around the world. Women in construction, college debt avoidance,  building disruption and  building industry heroes get uncovered in this episode as the guys put their expert views across from opposite ends of the globe to provide solutions for the construction game to get working on.
Like many industries in the modern world, disruption is now making a play on the construction market and this type of disruption has the potential to change much of how we build across the globe.  Join Mark and Phil where they discuss the disruption of modular and prefabricated building forces, explaining how construction is becoming more of a manufacturing industry and the realities that are impacting the future of how we build and create a sustainable future. Real life examples shared by  Mark and Phil are sure to have you think differently about construction in the future. This podcast gives a fresh take on the world of construction, and in this first episode, The Whizard & The Guy From Oz discuss the prefabricated modular market and where the technology is going in construction.
