Description

In this episode, Paul is joined by George Lujans, Director at GoModular, for a masterclass on modular construction that breaks down everything you thought you knew.

George’s message is clear: most developers, QSs, and even modular startups have misunderstood modular construction – and that’s why it hasn’t delivered on its promises.

Together, Paul and George unpack:

  • Why modular is a verb, not a noun – and how that changes everything.
  • The biggest myths in modular: standardisation, site access, and planning restrictions.
  • Why finance, not technology, is the real blocker to scaling modular housing.
  • What QSs and developers are getting wrong when procuring modular projects.
  • How we shift from chasing megafactories to building smarter, leaner, scalable modular systems.

If you're in cost management, development, or just curious about why modular keeps “failing,” this episode reframes the entire conversation.
