Advancing Construction Analytics Conference
Hanson Wade's annual data science and analytics conference for construction—held in Phoenix with 200+ attendees—focused on AI, machine learning, and data-driven decision-making in capital project delivery.
Definition
Advancing Construction Analytics is Hanson Wade's dedicated annual conference for data science, analytics, and AI in construction, held in Phoenix, Arizona. With 200+ attendees and 40+ speakers across 3 targeted tracks, the conference provides depth on data engineering, analytics architecture, and AI implementation that broader events cannot deliver. The 2026 program covers: construction analytics infrastructure (data lakes, ERP integration, BI platform selection), predictive analytics for cost and schedule performance, machine learning for productivity and safety, AI model governance and bias mitigation, and the organizational capabilities required to build effective analytics functions. Unlike vendor-dominated events, Advancing Construction Analytics features a high proportion of practitioner-led sessions where construction firms share real implementation results—including failures and lessons learned. For construction firms building or scaling analytics capabilities, the conference provides concentrated learning and peer community unavailable elsewhere.
Examples
