About the Building Connections podcast

Every project has a story. The wins, the challenges, and the lessons that don’t always make it into the final report once the job wraps

In each episode, we sit down with project managers and construction leaders who’ve navigated some of the industry’s most challenging builds. At VPO, we believe that sharing these real-world experiences makes all of us better at what we do.

Whether you're dealing with schedule pressures, budget constraints, or just trying to keep a complex project on track, you're going to hear from people who've walked in your construction boots.

Meet the Host

Laura Nee, VPO CEO & President

Laura is the founder of VPO and a longtime advocate for construction project owners navigating complex capital programs. As a 28-year veteran of the construction industry, she’s seen owners repeatedly making high-stakes decisions with incomplete information and tools built primarily for contractors.

She founded VPO to change that, giving owners portfolio-level visibility, proactive risk insight, and collaborative workflows built natively on Microsoft 365. Laura also serves as Vice President of the Three Rivers Chapter of CMAA, where she supports industry connections, professional growth, and knowledge sharing across the construction community.
