Nick Caravella is an architect-turned-technologist focused on helping industrial teams deliver safer, more predictable projects. He works at the intersection of the built environment and digital transformation. At Cumulus, he helps owners and contractors adopt digital QA/QC and Connected Worker solutions that reduce rework, improve quality, and provide real-time visibility into schedule - and cost-driving work. He partners closely with customers, industry leaders, and internal teams to modernize inspection workflows and advance data-driven quality programs across capital projects.

Nathan C. Wood is the Executive Director of Construction Progress Coalition (CPC), a grassroots non-profit initiative to educate AEC professionals about the need for open interoperability standards between project delivery stakeholders. Nathan’s experience with Virtual Design and Construction (VDC), Lean process improvement, and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) has led him to realize how even proven technology solutions can result in lost ROI when the needs of people and process are not addressed. Nathan balances his passion for data insights and stakeholder empathy through pragmatic adoption strategy, driving digital standards adoption in design and construction. When not fighting for open standards, Nathan also supports construction transformation as Chief Enabling Officer of SpectrumAEC, delivering speaking engagements, research publications and Design Thinking workshops.
