Today’s construction industry is operating in a rapidly changing environment shaped by evolving federal policies, global trade conditions, and heightened regulatory oversight.

BC&E’s New Realities series brings together panels of experts to help industry leaders understand these challenges and provide best practices to thrive in the current environment.

Part 2 – Wednesday, December 17, 2025 | 9am – 10am

Tariffs and the Supply Chain

Fluctuating U.S. tariff policies have disrupted supply chains and shifted the cost of many construction materials and equipment. Companies are facing new uncertainties in pricing, procurement, and project planning.

Our panel of industry leaders will examine the practical impacts of these conditions on construction projects and share strategies for managing costs, maintaining schedules, and sustaining client relationships in a changing trade environment.

You must pre-register. A custom Zoom link will be emailed to attendees two days before the event.

New Realities of Construction

A three-part series on immigration, tariffs and worksite safety

Today’s construction industry is operating in a rapidly changing environment shaped by evolving federal policies, global trade conditions, and heightened regulatory oversight.

BC&E’s New Realities series brings together panels of experts to help industry leaders understand these challenges and provide best practices to thrive in the current environment.

Seminar 1 – Wednesday, October 22, 2025 | 9am – 10am

Part 1: Immigration Enforcement in Construction

Stricter federal employment policies are reshaping the construction workforce. With increased funding for enforcement, more frequent I-9 audits, and workplace inspections, construction companies face higher risks and stricter requirements for verifying worker status.

This session will bring together immigration and business experts to outline practical strategies for compliance, risk management, and protecting your workforce.
