/in , , /by

The PTAG team (Ugo Santone, Garry Makar, Andrew Dubreuil, Trevor Posyluzny, Ryan Devereux, Sonia Brar, Alicia Ward) is looking forward to attending the Global Energy Show, taking place from June 9 to 11, 2026, at the BMO Centre in Calgary, Canada.

As the energy industry continues to navigate increasing project complexity, evolving market demands, and the ongoing need for safe, reliable, and efficient execution, collaboration across the sector has never been more important. The Global Energy Show provides an opportunity to exchange insights, explore new technologies, and discuss the trends shaping the future of energy development and capital project delivery.

For PTAG, the event aligns closely with our focus on supporting clients through disciplined project management, construction management, project controls, supply chain management, engineering management, PMIS integration, quality management, and HSSE management. Our work across Energy, Utilities, Petrochemical, and Heavy Infrastructure sectors is centered on helping organizations improve predictability, strengthen governance, and achieve better project outcomes.

Attending the Global Energy Show gives our team the opportunity to connect with industry peers, clients, partners, and technology providers who are actively shaping the future of energy. We look forward to meaningful conversations around innovation, execution readiness, workforce capability, safety, and the practical solutions needed to deliver complex projects successfully.

PTAG is proud to be part of the conversation and looks forward to engaging with the energy community in Calgary.

Congratulations to PTAG’s Ted Blackmon, on being elected to the National Academy of Construction Class of 2026.

The National Academy of Construction recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the effectiveness of the construction industry over the course of their careers. Election to the Academy reflects peer recognition of exceptional leadership, personal integrity, and a demonstrated commitment to advancing the health and performance of the industry.

Ted’s career has been defined by leadership, innovation, and a commitment to improving how projects are planned and delivered. His pioneering contributions to Advanced Work Packaging (AWP) have helped shape industry thinking and support more effective project execution across complex capital projects.

Beyond his technical contributions, Ted has consistently demonstrated a willingness to share knowledge, mentor others, and support the broader construction community. His election to the NAC reflects not only his accomplishments, but also the positive impact he has had on peers, project teams, and the industry as a whole.

PTAG is honored to celebrate this well-deserved recognition and looks forward to joining colleagues and industry leaders in recognizing Ted at the formal induction ceremony in September.

PTAG to Attend CURT’s Leadership in the Age of Artificial Intelligence Summit

/in , , /by

PTAG’s Jay Moser and Ted Weitzman will be attending CURT’s Leadership in the Age of Artificial Intelligence summit on June 9 in Cincinnati.This one-day event is designed for construction and capital project leaders seeking practical insight into how artificial intelligence is already influencing project execution, workforce performance, safety, governance, and business competitiveness.

As the construction industry continues to face increasing complexity, constrained labor markets, evolving risk profiles, and growing demands for stronger project outcomes, AI is becoming an important topic for owners, contractors, and project delivery organizations. The conversation is no longer limited to future possibilities. It is now focused on real-world implementation, operational readiness, and the steps organizations must take to apply AI responsibly and effectively.

The CURT summit will focus on several key areas relevant to today’s capital project environment, including practical AI applications across the construction lifecycle, workforce strategy, risk and governance, decision-making across capital programs, and implementation lessons from industry leaders. These topics align closely with the challenges many organizations face as they work to improve predictability, productivity, safety, and performance across complex projects.

At PTAG, we understand that successful project delivery requires more than adopting new technology. It requires strong leadership, disciplined processes, reliable data, effective governance, and the ability to integrate innovation into the way projects are planned, managed, and executed. AI has the potential to support better decision-making and improve outcomes, but its value depends on how well it is aligned with project needs, organizational readiness, and practical execution.

Participation in events like CURT’s Leadership in the Age of Artificial Intelligence summit allows PTAG to stay engaged with industry leaders who are actively shaping the future of construction and capital project delivery. We look forward to the discussions, insights, and lessons that will be shared in Cincinnati, and to continuing the conversation around how emerging technologies can support safer, smarter, and more effective project delivery.
