Webinar #24: Permanent Tech Solutions from the Pandemic – Tauhira Ali & Sean McGuire

June 29, 2020

As the old proverb goes, Necessity is the Mother of Invention. The COVID-19 crisis has forced contractors to fundamentally change the way they operate. Innovative solutions have been rapidly adopted to meet the needs of limited job sites, distributed workforce and enhanced safety demands. Some quick fixes have crashed and burned or been discarded quickly for better solutions. However, some practices, software and tools have met with success and become a permanent part of operations. In this webinar, MCAA’s Director of Innovative Technologies, Sean McGuire will co-host the presentation with Milwaukee Tool’s Group Manager of Construction Technology, Tauhira Ali to cover some of the best ideas while trying to forget the worst.
