EPISODE 401: The construction industry consumes a staggering 40% of the world’s resources while simultaneously dumping 40% of waste into landfills. Building a more sustainable future may seem like a far-fetched dream, but this week’s podcast guest thinks otherwise.

In this week’s episode, my co-host Nathan Wood and I sit down with Brittany Harris, the amazing founder and CEO of Qflow, to explore groundbreaking projects aimed at decarbonizing the construction industry.

Qflow serves as a digital hub that empowers construction teams to collect real-time data on materials and waste, helping them make informed decisions on cost, carbon footprint, and quality.

Brittany takes us on her journey from working on innovative construction projects to establishing Qflow, as well as the challenges and opportunities of integrating sustainability and technology in construction.

We also dive into the role of AI and data in improving operational workflows and how this contributes to the decarbonization of the industry while enhancing cost efficiency.
