It’s why we have an “Innovation Committee,” a mixed bag of job titles including project managers, architects, quality control managers and IT pros. . We brag about our “open-door” management policy that empowers employees to question the systems and frameworks under which they operate. There’s always a better way.

I observed a phenomena: over the years the number of users of 3D (model) based software in AEC has raised dramatically while their average skill level dropped tragically. And project managers turned up too. AutoCAD pursued strategy no1 in the eighties and early nineties. Expectations and budgets got scarily out of synch.

Autodesk has contacted me to help find Revit models of buildings in Philadelphia that firms would be willing to contribute for research under NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) conditions. This means that Autodesk would use the files internally, but that model data would not be released for public consumption.

While I accept, that it takes a long time to understand the carefully hidden corruptive practices of the industry, the backwards ways of its information management must be obvious to anyone that had spent even the shortest time within it, let alone the Millennials, that have grown up ‘digital’. Why do you ever settle for AutoCAD?

Quantity take off procedure can be enhanced with BIM as estimate of the quantities are derived from BIM models and the model contains the information on all the objects in the building in addition to their dimensions. QTO can be organized to perform any size estimate and for checking a BIM model for precision.

Worse even from that fact, it did little to improve the processes (don’t believe me, go to weekly meetings of medium to large projects), it had done almost nothing to increase accountability and decrease corrupt practices that plague the industry. CAD managers taunted us for file sizes and line types and fonts and RAM.

When it comes to construction projects, the act of “laying the groundwork” starts well before teams make it to the job site. A strong project foundation begins with having a great project model that simulates the construction process and communicates the plan to stakeholders. I love it, personally.
