OPEN DESIGN COLLABORATION – A Review of Technologies & Strategies for Sharing BIM Model Data
Great architecture requires collaboration of all design disciplines. Architects have a central role in coordinating all aspects of their design with other disciplines during the entire design process. As BIM technologies are further adapted into the workflow of architects, engineers and contractors it becomes increasingly important to share BIM data within a project team.
This seminar will review new technologies that provide an open approach to interdisciplinary collaboration which greatly broadens designers’ options for real Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) resulting in faster delivered projects and significantly lower coordination errors.

I’m looking forward to this presentation. I’ve been a devoted user of ArchiC
Collaboration is so important to the design process, ultimately saving all parties time (which is actually money) and resources. Do more with less!
