8:20 am Chair’s Opening Remarks
Championing Achievable, Scalable E-Prefab Roadmaps
8:30 am Team Spotlight: EPI Power’s Journey from Prefab Beginners to Scaling an Integrated, End‑to‑End Program
- Reflecting on core lessons taken from the 2024 Advancing Electrical Prefabrication Summit that shaped their roadmap and enabled the team to begin building their prefab program from the ground up
- Addressing VDC/BIM knowledge gaps, reworking models for prefab, and restructuring workflows to meet manufacturing requirements
- Discussing the field learning curve as installers encountered prefab for the first time, and how improved training, communication, and alignment enabled consistent installation outcomes
- Connecting the dots across design, fabrication, and field operations to build an integrated workflow that led to their first successful prefab deployment in April–May 2025 and paved the way for rapid scale-up toward a 150,000 sq. ft. facility
9:10 am Session Reserved for DPMG
9:40 am Introducing Fabrication Automation for Electrical by EVOLVE to Increase Throughput of Field-Installed Assemblies
- Automating data-retrieval to eliminate non-value-added labor tasks
- Leveraging design to machine automation to reduce waste and directly increase labor productivity
- Exploring how automation shifts labor to a higher form of value
- Showing how machine automation materially increases fabrication productivity for conduit, ensuring your organization capitalizes on the ultimate promise of prefab
10:10 am Meet the Speakers: Networking Break
Connect with members of the speaker faculty actively shaping the future of electrical prefab – whether they’ve just presented or are about to take the stage. Ask your burning questions, dive deeper into their strategies, and build valuable connections with leaders driving real-world prefab success.
