The construction industry must evolve in search of new and improved ways to deliver projects safer, better, faster and cheaper. By combining the technology-enabled tools of Building Information Modeling (BIM) with a more integrated and collaborative approach to project delivery such improvements are more possible than ever before.

We, as an industry, must all embrace and exploit these concepts, tools and techniques to improve the service we offer our clients and to maintain our competitive advantage and general relevance. This webinar will highlight the current industry momentum surrounding these topics and will provide attendees with the proof that it is time for all of us to get on board and start living in the BIM and Integrated Project Delivery world (IPD).

At the end of this 90-minute webinar with Bret Tushaus, Director of Information Technology at Eppstein Uhen Architects (EUA), you will have learned:

• A comprehensive overview of BIM and IPD
• The benefits and possibilities that surround BIM and IPD
• High level information on how a firm can get started in a BIM and IPD enabled world
• Where you can see some immediate ROI

Consumers of capital construction projects are raising their expectations and want projects that are delivered safer, better, faster and cheaper. In addition, the economy is squeezing the margins for AEC firms and as a result design teams need to do more with less to maintain a competitive advantage and financial success. The concepts, tools and techniques that surround the world of BIM and IPD are exactly what is needed to meet these new industry demands and allow firms to thrive in a more challenging economy.

Topics include:

• Why we are where we are , the momentum of BIM and IPD in recent years
• The essence of IPD , why is IPD relevant, what does it really mean and how can my firm benefit?
• The “big ideas” of BIM and how they can be applied to real world projects
• Case studies: The relevant BIM related tools and techniques along with a more collaborative approach to delivery played out in real world projects
• Where the momentum surrounding these topics is taking us
• How to get your firm on board and become part of the rethinking, reinventing & reevaluating
