The Copper Connection Podcast – Season 2, Episode 35.

Ever wondered what happens to a building after you’ve finished the job and packed up your tools? In this episode of The Copper Connection Podcast, host Chris Bailey pulls back the curtain on the data sources that drive modern construction and building services – and why they matter for students, apprentices and future tradespeople.

You’ll discover how operational cost monitoring shows what it really costs to run a building, why enterprise systems and ERP software influence the materials you get on site, and how utilities, metering and building management systems (BMS/BEM) turn everyday plant and pipework into smart, efficient, data-driven systems. We also zoom out to look at UK infrastructure and transport data, and how it shapes the projects – and job opportunities – coming down the line.

If you’re working towards a plumbing qualification, construction apprenticeship or technical trade career, this episode will help you connect what you learn in class with the real-world decisions made on site and in the office.

Listen now to build your understanding, boost your confidence, and get a head start in a data-driven industry – and don’t forget to follow and subscribe to The Copper Connection Podcast for more trade-focused learning and career tips.plumbing apprenticeship UK
