The ConTechCrew 155: “Show Me the Money!” using Collected Data with Ryan Hoggatt from UMC

Summary from the Podcast website:

“The ConTechCrew visited with Ryan Hoggatt of University Mechanical Contractors, Inc. about the world of possibilities that opens once you start collecting data on everything! Brace yourself for a wave of nostalgia as we revisit a 90’s pop culture with James belting out some Nirvana, and The Crew appropriately quoting “Show me the money!” because data collection saves companies serious cash. Other topics include 3D printing, ROI, self-driving trucks and more!”

3) Podcast – From The Constructrr Podcast

Using Data as An Asset: The Future for Building Owners and Operators

Summary from the Podcast website:

“Jordan and I discuss why IOT does not deliver on its promise to provide overwhelming productivity we expected, the future of IOT and an IOT device they’ve created,

We discuss Data as an asset, the notion of applying science to culture and how Enstoa has rolled this out in their own company via organizing using a holacracy and using no organizational charts, and last but not least their recent company acquisition and what they are now able to offer.”

Episode 202: What happens when your smart home gets a subpoena

Summary from the Podcast website:

“This week’s news was somewhat grim for the smart home with Lowe’s shutting down its Iris smart home hub program and a number of acquisitions in the space. Those include LIFX, Neeo, and WigWag. We are pumped about the rise in mainstream attention for consent around data use and privacy. Unfortunately, we also have a bunch of stories about leaking data, poor security practices and a slight bright point with a UK investment in device security. We end with some Google Assistant updates that are pretty compelling. Then we hit our IoT Podcast Hotline to answer a question about the best light switch to replace a Plum light switch, which has stopped working.”
