Rethinking Safety and Pre-qualification in Construction

In this episode of the CSP Podcast, industry leaders sit down for an honest and in-depth roundtable on procurement, prequalification, and safety in construction — and how technology is changing it all. From Experience Modification Rates (EMRs) to recordable incident rates (RIRs), the discussion dives into what general contractors really look for when evaluating trade partners — and why some traditional metrics no longer tell the full story. The group breaks down how safety data, leadership culture, and real-world performance intersect to define a contractor’s true reliability. They also explore how companies are beginning to use AI, predictive analytics, and smarter data systems to transform the prequalification process — helping identify risk, strengthen relationships, and build safer job sites. Whether you’re a subcontractor looking to prequalify, a GC refining your process, or just someone interested in where construction safety and technology are heading, this episode offers practical insights, candid perspectives, and a glimpse into the future of the industry. Topics Covered: • How GCs truly evaluate trade partners • Why EMR isn’t the only measure of performance • Turning lagging indicators into leading results • Using OSHA logs and safety data effectively • The rise of AI and automation in construction procurement • Building real partnerships through transparency and communication If you’re in construction, safety, or project management, this is a must-listen conversation about how data, people, and innovation are redefining what it means to build smart and build safe.
