AI isn’t complicated because the technology is hard. It’s complicated because most organizations aren’t ready for it yet, and no one tells them that upfront. This session does. In this one-hour webinar, Rea Information Services (RIS) and Alex Ryan, CEO of Ryshe, a Data & AI consultancy, will walk you through what AI actually looks like in construction right now: live demonstrations, real use cases, and a straight conversation about what readiness actually requires.
What We’ll Cover
Construction firms are sitting on more data than ever: project costs, labor hours, materials, schedules, subcontractor performance. But data volume alone doesn’t make AI work. This session starts where it matters: the foundation.
- The evolution of technology in construction and what Industry 4.0 means for your firm
- What AI actually is (and isn’t), cutting through the hype to what’s relevant for your business
- AI readiness: what has to be in place before your investment pays off
- Privacy, security, and responsible AI adoption: how to protect your firm as you evolve
- Shadow IT and data risk: what’s likely already happening inside your organization
- Live use case demonstrations built on real construction data
Who Should Attend
Construction owners, project executives, operations leaders, and financial decision-makers who want a straight answer on AI: what it takes, what it costs, and whether it’s worth it for firms like theirs. While this session is built with construction in mind, the conversation is relevant for any business leader evaluating AI right now.
