#15 - Data Driven Sustainability feat. Brittany Harris (QualisFlow)

Build Our Future Podcast

Today on the show we have Brittany Harris, CEO of Qualis Flow, here to talk about what data science can bring to construction as far as achieving greater sustainability. Qualis Flow is an environmental management platform that holistically tracks, monitors, and predicts the environmental risk of construction projects. Brittany gives listeners an idea of her background and how she and her partner Jade Cohen decided to combine data science with sustainability to arrive at the value proposition Qualis Flow offers to construction firms. After that, she shares about what growing Qualis Flow looked like and what some of the core values that drive the business forward are. Along with this, our guest describes Qualis Flow’s easy, remote onboarding process as well as how the app works to assess the environmental impact of a job in real-time. Qualis Flow monitors materials coming onto a site as well as waste going off it, while at the same time streamlining workflows so teams have less paperwork to go through. Brittany tells listeners about the different areas of environmental impact Qualis Flow assesses, from water to air and more, and gets into the way the app monitors sustainability from a social, economic, and environmental perspective too. Joining today’s conversation, listeners will also learn about which spheres of construction are adopting Qualis Flow the quickest, its capacity to add value to builds of all sizes, and what the future looks like in terms of going global, so be sure to tune in!
