BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
🏗️ What separates a construction project that runs under control from one that descends into chaos?
In this episode of Blueprints 2 Buildings, Glen Palmer is joined by Chartered Construction Manager, cost consultant, author, speaker and construction educator Richard Stone.
With more than three decades in the industry and experience across £500 million+ worth of construction and development projects, Richard has seen what happens when projects work — and what happens when they don't.
Richard argues that many failures blamed on site actually originate much earlier.
Projects rush into construction without investing enough time in the setup. Information isn't properly shared. Programmes don't reflect reality. Teams aren't aligned. Communication breaks down.
The result?
Problems that could potentially have been prevented become expensive fires that need putting out later.
In this conversation:✓ Why construction projects really fail
✓ Lessons from £500m+ of projects
✓ Why planning before construction is so important
✓ Communication and project leadership
✓ From working on the tools to the boardroom
✓ Working smarter rather than simply working harder
✓ Why project programmes become “expensive wallpaper”
✓ Why construction is often badly explained
✓ Building Safety Act challenges
✓ BIM and digital twins
✓ Immersive 3D visualisation
✓ Practical applications of AI in construction
✓ Quality, compliance and practical completion
✓ Developing the next generation of construction professionals
✓ Richard's ambition to encourage more women into the industry
It's a frank, practical conversation about construction project management, leadership, technology and what the industry needs to do differently.
