8:45 - 10 a.m. Making Energy conservation Pay for Itself:

What You Need to Know (M3)

Across Ohio, K-12 schools are making energy efficiency improvements and

using the cost savings to pay for construction. The Energy Conservation

Program, administered by the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC),

gives districts the ability to borrow funds without added taxpayer expense.

With nearly 90% of a facility’s operational budget spent on lighting and

HVAC, these improvements can mean significant savings in utility costs.

Understanding the rules of this program can give designers and contractors

a competitive edge when working with school districts. This session shows

examples of the energy saving measures being successfully implemented.

Presenter: Ron Spangler, Energy Program Manager

(Ohio Facilities Construction Commission)

10:15 - 11:30 a.m. Maximizing IPD with the Right People,

Planning and Process (M4)

Successful teams need the right people - in the right place - at the right time.

With leadership from the owner, The Cleveland Clinic’s Lutheran Hospital

created a strong team for its emergency department expansion from the start.

With participation from the architect, engineer, CM, mechanical, electrical and

drywall sub-trades, this team quickly realized the benefits of early planning

and a visioning process to carry throughout the project. The team shares what

they learned, including who to involve when; and their metrics of success,

from budget and schedule to patient satisfaction.

Panelists: Doug Fischback, Senior Vice President (The Krill Company)

Armando Francisco, President (Lake Erie Electric)

Rocco Gallo, Principal (Karpinski Engineering)

Doug Lippus, Project Manager (Cleveland Clinic)

Michael Zambo, Principal (Bostwick Design Partnership)

10:15 - 11:30 a.m. computer Fraud, Hacking and Theft –

We’re All at Risk (M5)

Computer fraud, hacking and theft are real concerns and construction owners,

contractors, designers and suppliers are all at risk. It’s not just big companies

that are being affected – small firms in central Ohio have experienced

compromised data. Fortunately, there are preventive measures that can be

taken to mitigate the risks of a data- or security-related breach. This session

describes the most common IT risks that threaten organizations today, and

steps to take to detect, prevent, mitigate or avoid these risks, including cyber

insurance.

Presenters: Michael Dickson, Director of Business Technology Services

(GBQ Partners LLC)

Joe urquhart, Vice President

(Overmyer Hall Associates)

7:00 - 7:30 a.m. Registration and Networking Breakfast

7:30 - 8:30 a.m. construction’s Brighter Economic Forecast: Where Your Best Bets Will Be (Opening Session - G1)

The economic forecast for construction – a popular kick-off for the

Conference – details the improving market in Ohio. Sharing projections for

public and private work is Cliff Brewis, vice president of editorial operations

for Dodge Data & Analytics (formerly McGraw Hill Construction/Dodge).

Brewis examines how national economic influencers of construction will

drive types of projects and where those opportunities will be.

Presenter: cliff Brewis, Vice President of Operations

(Dodge Data & Analytics)

8:45 - 10 a.m. 4D Scheduling: A Step Beyond 3D Modeling(M1)

The construction industry has moved into a fourth dimension – 3D modeling

plus the addition of schedule = 4D Scheduling. Combining BIM with Critical Path

Method (CPM) scheduling software, 4D Scheduling enables design/construction

teams to visualize the entire duration of a series of events and display the

progress of construction activities through the lifetime of the project. American

Municipal Power (AMP) is using 4D Scheduling on several hydro-electric power

plants, and brings the entire team to discuss the process, the benefits, and how

it can be used for projects of all sizes.

Panelists: Pete crusse, Vice President (American Municipal Power, Inc.)

Doug Hartz, Operations Manager (The Ruhlin Company)

Don Mccarthy, President (McCarthy Consulting, LLC)

Jeff Snoke, Site Manager (American Municipal Power, Inc.)

cindy Stiffler, President (Rock Ridge Virtual Design Construction)

8:45 - 10 a.m. Working Safer by Design: Expanding Risk

Management to Risk Prevention (M2)

For several years, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health

(NIOSH) has encouraged the prevention of incidents and injuries by smarter

design both of the construction site and the facility being built. TJ Lyons, a

safety professional at Gilbane Federal, describes the concept of “Prevention

through Design” (PtD) and provides examples of why this might be the biggest

advance in hazard elimination since the seat belt. Learn how PtD can move

contractors from management of hazards to hazard elimination – including

lifetime hazards for building owners and users.

Presenter: TJ Lyons, construction Safety Manager (Gilbane Federal)

Agenda and Program Descriptions

10:15 - 11:30 a.m. SMART® Technology Provides Smart

Savings and collaboration (M6)

With SMART® technology, users can share information and communicate

with colleagues in the next room, or halfway around the world. Businesses

using this tool see significant increases in productivity and reductions in

communication costs. Local design and construction firms join Advanced

Solutions Visual Collaboration Systems to show how they take meetings to

the next level. Messer Construction Co. and Moody Nolan, Inc. demonstrate

how they’ve adopted SMART® technology.

Presenters: Sara Brockert, Virtual construction Engineer

(Messer Construction Co.)

Allen Schaffer, Director of Sustainable Design

(Moody Nolan, Inc.)

Scott Wolslager, Product Manager

(Advanced Solutions Visual Collaboration Systems)

11:30 a.m. -12:45 p.m. Ohio’s Latest Initiative to Generate

the Next construction Workforce (Lunch Session - G2)

Recognizing the need to educate teachers, counselors, students and parents

about the industry, construction leaders approached local associations to

launch an Ohio-based initiative showcasing career opportunities in

construction. The result is BuildOhio.org, a construction careers website

created and funded by the Associated General Contractors (AGC) of Ohio,

the Ohio Contractors Association (OCA) and seven regional construction

associations. Representatives from AGC and OCA introduce the website and

discuss how it will allow any association, school or individual business to use

it for outreach and workforce recruitment efforts.

Presenters: Andrea Ashley, Vice President of Government Relations

(Associated General Contractors (AGC) of Ohio)

John Igel, President (George J. Igel & Co., Inc.)

1:00 - 2:15 p.m. L3: Building a Lean Facility – Lean

Operations, Lean Design, Lean construction (A1)

At Akron Children’s Hospital, lean operations are part of the culture. So when

hospital leaders planning a new Tower Project learned about lean design

and construction, it was a logical choice to select these practices to drive the

delivery method. Members of the Akron Children’s Tower Team share lessons

learned on a collaborative project designed to deliver a new facility for the

best value, continue to provide family-centered care to the children and

families they serve, and not waste a dime during the process.

Panelists: Paul Becks, Project Manager

1:00 - 2:15 p.m. continuing the Workforce conversation:

Associations Share Ideas & Action (A2)

In any construction market the #1 issue is the lack of skilled tradespeople

and a shortage of candidates for all open positions. Local industry associations

describe their efforts in high school education, apprenticeship training, middle

school advocacy, scholarship programs and other efforts currently underway

to recruit the future workforce and develop construction’s current talent

pool.

1:00 - 2:15 p.m. How the culture of Inefficiency is

Out-Foxing Energy-Efficient Design (A3)

Energy-efficient and green buildings continue to gain popularity. However, there

are many design and implementation deficiencies preventing achievement of

intended energy efficiency savings. Due to the complexity of modern building

systems and the detail required for their installation, efficiency features are

commonly implemented incorrectly – and the result is not meeting energy savings

goals. This session describes implementation flaws that prevent buildings from

achieving intended goals and corrective steps that can be taken to achieve energy

efficiency.

Presenter: Peter Klienhenz, Engineer (Go Sustainable Energy)

A vital part of any professional conference is networking: the “off-line”

conversations attendees have which help build and strengthen business

relationships. Stay for a reception when the sessions conclude to meet industry

decision-makers: owners and developers, architects and engineers, general and

subcontractors and suppliers of materials or professional services. There will

be much to discuss – and often the most powerful learning comes from fellow

Conference guests.
