He will focus on how to unlock savings through lean and pre-fab and address the cultural and contractual requirements for success.
Matt Hallaran of Stack Modular will provide an overview of the modular housing industry. As a North American manufacturer of large scale, steel frame modular construction projects, Matt will share insights on how the supportive units can address housing supply shortages and what considerations are needed for building successful projects.
