Procon’s Strategic Growth Executive, Vinny Testa, explains the importance of making your data tell the same story, turning complexity into clarity.

We talk about being data-driven all the time but most of us are buried in information. Every project has reports, logs, and spreadsheets piling up. The hard part isn’t collecting data, it’s figuring out what actually
matters and how to make it clear to everyone on the team.

That’s where data visualization comes into play. It’s not about fancy charts or color palettes. It’s about telling a story people can understand. A good dashboard doesn’t just display numbers. It connects the dots and helps the team focus on what’s important.

From recent polling we conducted during presentations at BuiltWorlds and CMAA, more than 40% of organizations say they are using more than 10 systems to collect data on projects. The information exists but it’s scattered across systems and too hard to pull together. When that happens, small problems turn into big ones because no one sees the warning signs early enough.

The best visualizations I’ve seen are simple and practical. They make it easy for people to act, not just observe. I’ve been in meetings where everything changed the moment the team looked at the same dashboard and saw the same story.

So, how do you make the data work for you, and not overwhelm you? Start by choosing a solution-provider, like Procon, that has the expertise to help you navigate the vast array of visualization tools. Then, your solution-provider will help with implementation and team training of the digital service that can unify disparate data into a single, integrated model— ideally one powered by digital twins or virtual intelligence.

Finally, be sure to incorporate models or as-builts that will act as the official operational records of a building. Comprehensive documentation makes facility management more efficient, more informed, and better positioned to maximize long-term performance.

Whether you’re using Power BI, Kahua, or a whiteboard with sticky notes, the goal is the same: get the right information organized, and to the right people at the right time.

Honoring the Architect of the Capitol: Procon and Brown Construction Services Team Up to Build a U.S. Capitol Sculpture out of canned food for CANstruction 2025.

CANstruction is an annual design-build competition organized by the Washington Architectural Foundation to benefit the Capital Area Food Bank (CAFB). Each year, AEC firms across the D.C. region showcase their creativity by constructing large-scale sculptures made entirely of canned goods—all of which are donated to the CAFB to support local families in need.

When we learned that this year’s theme was “World Architecture,” we saw a perfect opportunity to honor one of our distinguished clients, Architect of the Capitol, while collaborating with our trusted partners at Brown Construction Services (BCS), with whom we formed a joint venture and support AOC projects.

On Build Day, members of Team Procon and Team BCS joined forces to create a 360-degree model of the U.S. Capitol, using more than 2,600 cans of nutritious food. The Capitol is more than a landmark—it is a globally recognized symbol of democracy and one of the most iconic and uniquely American architectural structures in the world.

Thank you to our partners at Brown Construction Services for collaborating on this meaningful effort. It was an inspiring afternoon filled with creativity, teamwork, and community impact—just in time for the holiday season.

Bad News: Infrastructure in America has long been neglected and underfunded.
Good News: Finally addressing it will mean lots of work for the AEC industry.

But there are still a lot of questions: How will we fund these projects? Will private entities be involved? How can we complete these projects efficiently while navigating regulatory requirements?

These are the questions Kyu Jung unpacks on the latest episode of The Build Up with Chowdhary Gondy, Principal of CES Consulting LLC. He’s an expert in all things infrastructure and shares his insights on how we tackle the future needs of America. Head to Procon’s YouTube page to watch the full episode.
