We're Already Too Late - Real Talk on Labor Crisis Solutions from Construction Brothers and Bricks & Bytes

"We reacted too late to the labor shortage. Now we need to work smarter - it has to happen."

In today's episode of Bricks & Bytes, we had Tyler Campbell, host of Construction Brothers Podcast, and we got to learn about why construction tech keeps failing, the reality behind the $13 trillion industry myth, and how major projects still run on Excel spreadsheets... and many more!

Tyler shared eye-opening insights from his journey building FieldProof and interviewing hundreds of industry leaders.

Tune in to find out about:

✅ Why RFIs have become weapons for project delays
