Why You Won't Want To Miss This Conference:

What You'll Learn: 

  • Where modular and prefabrication are successfully being applied across Southern California development projects
  • Why some developers are reconsidering modular as a universal solution
  • What factors determine whether offsite construction actually reduces costs and timelines
  • How transportation, logistics and factory capacity impact modular project feasibility
  • How developers are structuring projects to manage financing, insurance and construction risk
  • The role of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) in successful prefab projects
  • How automation, robotics and digital construction technologies are transforming the prefab pipeline
  • Whether modular construction can realistically help address California’s housing shortage

 

How You'll Do More Business From Attending This Real Estate Event: Prefabrication, modular and offsite construction continue to generate significant attention as developers search for ways to accelerate project timelines, control costs and address speed-to-market. However, recent projects have also sparked a growing debate: Is modular truly scalable, or does it only work under certain conditions? Join leading developers, contractors, manufacturers and policymakers as they examine where prefabrication and modular construction deliver real value, and where the model still faces challenges. From factory capacity and financing hurdles to transportation logistics and design limitations, this event will explore the practical realities of offsite construction and what it will take for the industry to scale successfully in Southern California. Learn how developers are evaluating modular construction against traditional methods and how emerging technologies, new manufacturing models and policy support could determine the future of factory-built development.
