OSHBA leaders conduct a planning meeting for the 2015 Oklahoma Building Summit.
About 10 gathered recently to get down to details for the Oklahoma Building Summit & Expo, even though the expo is five months away - Aug. 26-27.
The show expands to two days this year, which gives the gives planners a speaker/topic lineup even more widespread.
The brainstorming session spanned everything from on-demand water' to crazy mistakes builders make.
The group decided to lead-off with a keynote speaker, someone the Summit has not hosted in the past. Then, they landed on three overall topics, with as many as eight breakout sessions from that outline, repeating some of the more popular three topics for attendance ease.
The three overall sessions will cover: construction, energy efficiency, foundations and soils, and builder-specific business topics, such and mortgage rates, OSHA, Lean construction, tort law, sales and marketing, for example.
