Thank you, Binnie and Poly-Mor, for your generous sponsorship of this event!
Collaborative delivery models such as Progressive Design-Build, Alliance, and other target cost approaches are intended to align owners, designers, and contractors around shared project outcomes. Yet even with the best intentions, some projects build trust while others become mired in conflict, cost escalation, or difficult commercial negotiations.
This session will explore what it takes to successfully establish and manage a target cost, align stakeholders, allocate and manage risk, and create the conditions for collaborative decision-making throughout project delivery. Drawing on lessons from major projects the panel will discuss why some collaborative projects succeed, why others struggle, and how owners and industry partners can better achieve a true "getting to yes" outcome.
More details to come.
Thank you, EBC and Kiewit for sponsoring.
The session will explore digital transformation, including the integration of tools for data, scheduling, and performance, as well as emerging innovations such as AI and digital modelling. Participants will share perspectives on market readiness, risk, and the practical adoption of technology, with a focus on aligning solutions to real industry needs and improving overall project outcomes.
This interactive roundtable workshop brings together owners, consultants, contractors, regulators, and industry representatives to discuss the evolving role of technology in project delivery. Through facilitated small-group discussions, participants will share experiences and practical insights while contributing to a collaborative conversation on the opportunities and challenges shaping the future of the construction industry.
Each table will have a facilitator and recorder to guide and support the dialogue. Discussion themes and key insights will be documented and consolidated into a white paper, which will be shared with attendees and BCCR members following the event.

Canada's economic future depends on a resilient, efficient, and globally competitive trade gateway. As demand for exports continues to grow, strategic investments in ports, terminals, rail, road, and trade-enabling infrastructure will be essential to expanding capacity and strengthening supply chains.
This session will bring together leaders from across the port, transportation, infrastructure, and resource sectors to explore where the greatest opportunities for investment exist, the challenges that must be addressed, and how industry, governments, and investors can work together to unlock the next generation of trade infrastructure.
Panelists will share perspectives on the future of the Port of Vancouver Gateway, terminal expansion, supply chain capacity, financing, project delivery, and the policy decisions needed to support long-term economic growth. Join us for a timely discussion on building the infrastructure that will strengthen Canada's Pacific Gateway and enhance our competitiveness in global markets.
