Integrated Design Process - Where is the Value?

On Wednesday November 18th I'll be facilitating an executive event on BIM and the construction process titled: An Integrated Design Process - Where is the Value?




















BIM and the effort towards a more efficient design and construction process is changing the way we design and build. How we communicate. How we collaborate. Yet, many organizations are struggling to see the results that BIM has promised.

BIM is a key tool for the success of a process that has existed for years - an Integrated Design Process (IDP). Join us for a series of presentation in which your peers will discuss how they are applying the concepts of IDP and where they are seeing the value.

The key takeaways from this event are:

• A practical approach to using BIM as a catalyst for the long accepted concept of an Integrated Design Process
• The difference between an Integrated Design Process (IDP) and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)
• Current industry challenges and expectations.

Download the full event brochure.

This full-day event includes three presentations from five speakers, including a primer on innovative approaches to project delivery, and tips on how best to implement architectural and structural collaboration.

The seminar presents a unique opportunity to gather with like-minded individuals and mingle with experts in the BIM field; spaces are limited, so don’t miss out!

Registration
Registration fee is $250 per person. 

This will be a great opportunity to gauge the effectiveness of IDP projects and see how IDP is having an effect in our local market.
