Who is Winning in MEP - and Why.

The MEP industry is changing fast, but not evenly. This session breaks down findings from the 2025 State of MEP Annual Report, a survey of 144 construction leaders, updated with new data from the Stratus Innovate conference. We'll dig into three trends that deserve more attention: how mega projects are disproportionately benefiting the largest multi-trade firms, why prefabrication is evolving from a time-saving tactic into a growth strategy, and where the gap between financial metrics and operational KPIs is leaving money on the table.

This isn't a vendor pitch. It's a data-backed conversation about where the industry actually stands, based on what contractors themselves are reporting. Attendees will walk away understanding how leading firms use prefabrication to offset material and labor pressure, why production-system thinking is accelerating, and what manufacturing-style KPIs top performers are adopting.
