Innovation: The World of Construction 2.0
Wednesday, November 1, 2017 | 2:15-3:30 p.m.
Speaker: Tyler Pare, FMI Corporation
The word “innovation” often invokes imagery of tablet computers, holograms, and virtual reality. Technology leaders such as Google, Facebook, and Apple wrestle for superiority in game-changing innovations. Why does the construction industry — one of the largest sectors in the world — lag behind in this area? Innovative concepts give way to organizational best practices daily through powerful individuals, project teams, and business units. Such concepts are not high-tech flashy gadgets, but rather groundbreaking ideas.

When the CEO Came to Oz: Trump's First 10 Months in Washington, D.C.
Thursday, November 2, 2017 | 1:35- 2:20 p.m.
Speaker: Dawn Levy O’Donnell, D SQUARED Tax Strategies
This session looks at Trump’s first 10 months as U.S. President from a Washington D.C. insider perspective. It studies several of President Trump’s actions and intentions during his first year and how they played out in the Washington D.C. political arena compared to his usual boardroom playing field. Running our country is a different world from running a business, and this session will examine examples of that over his first 10 months in office.

The contractor, Kiewit-Turner, blames the VA for ignoring agreements to submit plans that can be built within budget and has asked a federal board overseeing civilian contract disputes to let the company walk away from the job. Problems with the building emerged in January, when letters between the builder and the VA revealed the project to be running some $200 million over budget, with Kiewit-Turner blaming a pricey design that was only partially completed by the time it entered into the contract. The two sides subsequently agreed — via a handwritten agreement — to build the hospital within the original budget, with the VA in charge of submitting a new, pared-down design reflecting a number of cost-saving measures. But in a July 8 complaint to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals,
