W11 – Utilizing BIM for Small Business

Innovation and Technology; Project Delivery & Management

How can small to medium-sized businesses utilize Building Information Modelling (BIM) so to play in the same “sandbox” as the bigger corporations?

In today’s built environment economy, having the ability to access and utilize BIM is crucial to the success of any business. This can often be challenging for small and medium organizations due to the lack of resources and budget. However, participating in BIM projects does not necessarily mean small to medium businesses are automatically excluded. Using “off the shelf” tools to take advantage of BIM is a cost-effective (often free) way of these businesses the ability to participate in the Architecture Engineering and Construction BIM / Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) economy.

This session will provide attendees with understanding, tips and tricks to allow you to initiate, collaborate, contribute and utilize VDC on BIM projects. We will explore the typical processes when engaging in a BIM project and assess some of the more cost-effective (free) tools available that allow you to participate, contribute and utilize BIM information and data, moving your business forward.

Join me on February 4th and 5th at the Pinnacle hotel in Vancouver for the 2020 CanBIM Regional Session titled: From the Smart Project to the Smart City

Integration and Collaboration Across Policies, Processes and Technologies

In the shift towards a low carbon built environment, new technologies, digital processes, fabrication and efficient assembly methods are transforming the way buildings are designed, built and operated. The “internet of everything” – IoT, Big Data and more - is connecting people, systems, buildings and communities in ways that will disrupt traditional policies, workflows and relationships.

As the procurement, production and operation of buildings and cities moves from analog to digital, project teams will need to collaborate fully and effectively. Join us in Vancouver to learn more about new methods, technologies and relationships that will impact how we deliver smart, climate-friendly buildings and cities in the future.
