Register for a Joint Industry Webinar on the New MEP Innovation Report

Make a plan to attend the Joint Industry Webinar, titled "Pressure into Progress”, focusing on the newly released 2026 MEP Innovation report, happening on September 29 at noon ET.

Nearly three in four MEP contractors are growing. Yet only a small percentage report having fully documented processes. 

That disconnect reveals an important truth: innovation isn’t being held back by resistance to technology. It’s being challenged by workforce pressures and changing project requirements. 

The 2026 MEP Innovation Report, co-produced by NECA, SMACNA, MCAA and Bluebeam, surveyed 303 contractors on growth, staffing, design volatility, and technology adoption. In this session, we take those findings off the page and put them in front of contractors delivering mission-critical work right now. 

You’ll hear what actually breaks down when schedules compress, and what these firms changed to get ahead of it.

You’ll learn how to: 

• Benchmark your own operation against 303 MEP firms 
• Spot where incomplete or late-changing designs are quietly driving rework in fabrication and the field 
• Tighten shop-to-field coordination on projects with no schedule margin 
• Sequence process documentation and tech rollout so your tools actually stick 
• Build earlier upstream influence to reduce the cost of late information
