Bricks & Chicks

An owner, an engineer, and an architect walk into a software platform...the result?: Chaos? Collaboration? A little of both? In "An Owner, Engineer & Architect Walk Into a Software Platform...(Not a walk into a bar joke)", we discuss how technology helps connect stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle, from design and coordination to construction and closeout. We also talk about common frustrations, disconnected workflows, and what happens when everyone is working from different information. Also...cryptids & cows?? No bar jokes.

In Episode 4 of Bricks & Chicks, we're joined by special guest Lance Borst! He's giving us a behind-the-scenes look at the world of software implementation, training, and delivery services in construction tech. As a Senior Solutions Consultant on the IMAGINiT Technologies delivery team, Lance works directly with customers after the sale is complete, helping teams adopt new technology, improve workflows, and survive the realities of implementation. We're talking through onboarding madness, user adoption, training challenges, field vs. office dynamics, and what actually makes software successful once the contracts are signed...because selling/purchasing software is one thing - getting people to actually use it is another.

In this week's episode, we’re jumping into one of construction tech’s biggest realities: most companies aren’t operating in just one platform anymore.This one is all about integrations, disconnectedworkflows, duplicate data entry, and the very real struggle of getting systems to actually communicate with each other.We’re also talking about Pulse, IMAGINIT’s proprietary middleware solution designed to help bridge the gap between platforms like Procore and Autodesk Forma Build, reducing operational chaos and helping teams spend less time reconciling data and more time building.From “human middleware” stories to spreadsheet archaeology and software relationship counseling, this episode keeps it honest, relatable, and just chaotic enough to feel familiar, because Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V is not an integration strategy.Have an idea of a topic or want to be a guest?

This week, we dive into one of our favorite topics — discovery. Why it matters, what it actually looks like in practice, and why skipping it almost always comes back to bite you. We get into what it really means to find the right solution for your business and why most software problems are really just communication problems wearing a technology costume. If you've ever said "we just make it work," this one's for you.Have an idea of a topic or want to be a guest? Write to us at:[email protected] episodes weekly.

In this episode, we cover what actually happens after a construction company pulls the trigger on a new platform, why skipping implementation and training is basically lighting your investment on fire, and what a good rollout actually looks like. Buying the software is the easy part. Using it well? That's where the real work starts.Have an idea of a topic or want to be a guest? Write to us at:[email protected] episodes bi-weekly.

Two women in construction tech. One industry full of chaos. And somehow… microphones. Bricks & Chicks is where construction, technology, implementation madness, industry hot takes, and jobsite reality all collide. Smart, funny, slightly unhinged conversations from people actually living it.
