Beyond Compliance: Digitalizing Sustainability in Construction

Wednesday, January 27 : 5:00 PM CET (11:00 AM EST)


How North American contractors can improve transparency, strengthen sustainability data, and turn commitments into measurable progress.

Sustainability expectations across the North American construction industry are evolving. Contractors are increasingly expected to demonstrate their environmental performance, but collecting and consolidating reliable data across projects, job sites, and subcontractors remains a challenge.

Join Sustaira and USGBC California (USGBC-CA) for a practical conversation about bridging the gap between sustainability commitments and measurable action.

Through a moderated discussion with USGBC-CA, we’ll explore how industry expectations are changing, the challenges contractors face in managing sustainability data, and how digitalization can help make sustainability performance more transparent and actionable.

We’ll also discuss how digital sustainability solutions can help construction companies organize environmental data, streamline carbon accounting, and improve visibility across projects.

What you'll learn

  • Evolving industry expectations: How sustainability requirements for contractors are changing across North America.

  • The sustainability data challenge: Why collecting and consolidating environmental information across projects, job sites, and subcontractors remains difficult.

  • From commitments to action: How digital tools can support contractors participating in the Contractor’s Commitment.

  • Making digitalization practical: How to navigate barriers related to cost, implementation effort, internal expertise, and existing systems.

  • Preparing for the future: Which capabilities contractors will increasingly need to measure, manage, and demonstrate their sustainability performance.

Who should attend?

This webinar is designed for construction company leaders, sustainability and environmental managers, project managers, and professionals responsible for carbon accounting, reporting, and digital transformation.
