🎙️ When Technology Moves Faster Than the Contract
Most contracts are not written to keep pace with technology that changes every few months.

In this Building Transformations podcast episode, our Risk Management, Legal and Contracting Methods Think Tank asks a central question: as technology becomes more deeply embedded in how projects are procured, designed, delivered and operated, are our contracts, governance practices and insurance frameworks keeping pace?

👉 Watch the full episode now: https://www.buildingtransformations.org/interviews/when-technology-moves-faster-than-the-contract

This conversation was moderated by Chris Greene, SVP of Innovation and Insights at American Global and Chair of our Risk Management, Legal and Contracting Methods Think Tank, with guests Jody Becker, Chief Capital Officer at Infrastructure Ontario, Greg Brokenshire, President of Alberici Constructors Canada, and Marc C. Drumm, CRM, Head of Insurance at American Global.

Together they cover when technology should be introduced, how responsibility flows through the project team, who owns and acts on data, and what it takes for insurers to view new technology as a credible risk control rather than just another exposure.

💬 What is one practical change your organization could make today to manage technology risk more effectively?
