To make the most of digital technology, you must focus on people. That’s the key theme of the second webinar at the Global Construction Summit. The webinar features a case study from Aecom and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
Representing Aecom is Wes Beaumont MCIOB, associate vice president, digital transformation leader at its US East and Latin America division. Alongside him will be Sadia Janjua, chief of digital transformation & innovation at the Port Authority.
They will discuss the challenge they face on the Port Authority’s three-year digital transformation programme.
Beaumont said: “Its overall objective is to connect the sum of its parts to not just deliver world class service, but to reimagine the workplace of the future.
