The Pre Construction Gap Breaking Every Construction Project

Construction and AEC leaders —You've felt it. The project breaks ground, and immediately you're paying for decisions that should have been caught weeks earlier. Misunderstandings, undocumented changes, gaps that nobody owned. The shovel hits dirt and the problems are already baked in.

This clip from our Patrick Murphy episode goes straight at the root cause: pre-construction chaos that cascades into everything downstream.

Patrick Murphy, CEO of Togal.AI, has spent his career watching construction teams fight the same fires on every single job. His argument: AI changes the equation by letting teams learn from previous projects instead of starting from scratch.

What you'll hear:
• Why the shovel-breaking-ground moment is already too late
• How pre-construction gaps become site-level disasters
• The case for AI as institutional memory — learning from every past job

Who this is for: Construction executives, project managers, and pre-construction leads who know the current process is broken but haven't seen a viable alternative.🎧 Full episode on Activating Curiosity — links in the description.
