For Operations Professionals: Reducing Delivery Risk Across the Construction Supply Chain
For operations leaders, supply-chain performance is ultimately a delivery issue.
Materials, equipment and trade capacity need to be available in line with the project schedule. When procurement, operations and delivery teams work independently, lead times and supplier constraints can quickly become schedule delays and margin pressure.
Advancing Construction Supply Chain & Procurement 2027 is designed to connect procurement decisions with their impact on project execution, bringing general contractors, trades, manufacturers and suppliers into the same conversation.
What You'll Learn
How to identify critical equipment and capacity risks earlier
How procurement can be integrated into preconstruction and project planning
How to translate procurement lead times into realistic construction programs
How stronger supplier relationships can create greater delivery certainty
How supplier and trade capacity can be assessed before commitments create delivery risk
How design, procurement and construction teams can make better coordinated decisions
How contractors are stress-testing plans against supplier failure, labor shortages and logistics disruption

Key Questions to Ask at the Event
Who Should You Meet?
This event is deliberately structured around cross-supply-chain interaction, rather than keeping different functions separate. That means you can connect with:
- Procurement and supply-chain leaders to understand how early sourcing decisions can support execution.
- Schedulers and preconstruction teams to improve alignment between procurement milestones and project programs
- Trade contractors to understand resource constraints
- Manufacturers and distributors for direct insight into capacity and availability.
Final Takeaway
For operations attendees, the value of attending Advancing Construction Supply Chain & Procurement 2027 isn't becoming better procurement professionals. It's understanding how decisions made upstream can make projects easier or harder to execute.
Make sure you’re in the room in January to come away with practical ways to reduce delivery risk before it reaches the field.
