Data Pipelines Demystified in Project Controls | Marco Frisenda

Sat, 18 Oct 2025 09:00:00 +0000

We recently had the pleasure of hosting Marco Frisenda for an insightful podcast session titled "Data Pipelines Demystified for Project Controls" where Marco broke down the often complex world of data pipelines into practical, accessible concepts for project controls professionals. We explored how modern data pipelines can transform the way project controllers gather, process, and analyze information from multiple sources—from scheduling tools and cost systems to risk registers and progress reports. The session offers multiple mega project stakeholders practical starting points for modernizing their project controls data infrastructure, regardless of their current technical maturity level.

In this episode of our construction, energy, and technology series, we sit down with Gino Toromazote to challenge the conventional wisdom surrounding modern datacenters. As the industry races to meet explosive demand from AI and cloud computing, separating fact from fiction has never been more critical for developers, contractors, and technology providers looking to capitalize on this booming sector. Gino brings his extensive experience to bust myths that could be costing the industry billions in inefficiencies and missed opportunities.

Key Topics Covered:

The Cooling Conundrum - Why the belief that datacenters must be kept arctic-cold is outdated, and how modern equipment can safely operate at higher temperatures, dramatically reducing energy costs and environmental impact

Location, Location, Misconception - Debunking the myth that datacenters need to be in remote locations, exploring how edge computing and urban datacenters are reshaping where and how we build digital infrastructure

Construction Speed vs. Quality - Addressing the false choice between rapid deployment and build quality, showcasing how modular construction and prefabrication deliver both speed and superior performance

Energy Consumption Reality - Moving beyond scary headlines to understand the real energy story: how modern datacenters are becoming more efficient, not less, and why renewable integration is easier than most think

The Skills Gap Narrative - Challenging the idea that datacenter construction requires entirely new expertise, revealing how traditional construction skills transfer and where targeted upskilling makes the biggest impact
