A conversation captured at the Construction Users Roundtable.
CURT members don’t gather to admire the industry as it is, we gather to challenge it. Throughout the year, owners come together to wrestle with contracting strategies, team dynamics, technical risk, global pressures, and the realities shaping how projects actually get delivered.
At the September 2025 member meeting, we had the opportunity to bring the immersive collaborative experience to the room. LEGO bricks on the table, assumptions off the table. What followed wasn’t just a workshop, it was dialogue. Candid. Constructive. Occasionally uncomfortable in the best way.
Steve Gantner and Tina Montone sit down afterward with CURT members: Herb Strong of HazTek, Andy Browning and Fred Marsh of Duke Energy, and Nicholas Johnson of Kahua as participants, critics, colleagues, and friends and they reminded us why these conversations matter. As presenters, the feedback was invaluable. As CURT members, the reflection was even more powerful.
And this is just the beginning.
Next up: the CURT National Conference in Orlando, February 2nd. The conversations continue and only get better.
