    Simplifying Modular Preconstruction for Building Developers w/ RaaP Builders

    Send us a text Imagine having precise pricing for your construction project before ever hiring an architect. That's exactly the paradigm shift that RaaP Builders wants to create in the modular construction industry. RJ Mahadev, co-founder and CEO of RaaP Builders, reveals how his company is transforming modular preconstruction through a "rooms as a product" approach that brings clarity, certainty, and efficiency to building developers. The company's innovative online platform lets developers input basic information—location, number of floors, and units—and immediately receive comprehensive designs with detailed pricing comparisons between traditional and modular construction methods.  For developers building prototypical structures like affordable housing, workforce housing, or budget hotels, RaaP's system offers a potential path to greater certainty, faster timelines, and significant cost savings.

    Contract Clarity: Templates Tailored for Modular Construction Success w/ AIA Contract Documents

    Send us a text For years, modular construction stakeholders have struggled with traditional contracts that fail to account for the dual-site nature of prefabrication, the split responsibilities for design between architects and manufacturers, and the complex permitting processes spanning multiple jurisdictions. Now, new agreements from AIA Contract Documents  tackle these challenges head-on by clearly delineating responsibilities and risks where they're best managed. Listen as Sara Betancorth from AIA Contract Documents and Sal Verrastro from Spillman Farmer Architects detail how these new contracts were created through years of collaboration between architects, attorneys, and industry experts. Now available to the public, these contracts represent a balanced approach that acknowledges the realities of modern modular construction. The result? Contracts that reduce risk, clarify responsibilities, and ultimately facilitate smoother project delivery for all stakeholders. Whether you're an owner, architect, contractor, or modular manufacturer, these new documents promise to transform how modular projects are structured and executed.

  6. The Future of Healthcare Construction & the Potential of Modular w/ EIR Healthcare

    The Future of Healthcare Construction & the Potential of Modular w/ EIR Healthcare

    Send us a text Grant Geiger, CEO of EIR Healthcare, explores how modular construction is transforming healthcare building projects by addressing the industry's unique challenges of high costs, slow timelines, and technology integration. What makes healthcare construction unique isn't the materials or processes—it's the motivation behind the projects. Unlike economically-driven commercial developments, healthcare facilities often expand based on community need rather than financial returns. And with more hospital systems shifting to a "hub and spoke" model with smaller satellite facilities, the opportunities for modular building has never been greater. In this episode, Grant shares his thoughts on the potential for modular healthcare construction to produce buildings that not only deliver care for patients but deliver faster, more predictable timetables for stakeholders. By eliminating the "blank sheet of paper" approach that currently dominates healthcare construction, modular methods promise facilities that can be built faster, cheaper, and with better patient outcomes—a win for providers, patients, and healthcare systems as a whole.
