On this Tangent episode, we dissect the state of modular construction with FullStack Modular's CEO Roger Krulak, a pioneering development and construction executive with over 25 years of experience in the industry. Roger walks us through why the design-bid-build model is inefficient, and how off-site construction can help stakeholders better collaborate and align incentives which will ultimately result in time and cost efficiencies. We also discuss how there needs to be a paradigm shift around modular construction, and how public/private partnerships can help alleviate the housing supply and affordability crisis.
