There is work to do.
30 million bldgs needing work in the next few years.
5 million people move to cities every month.
The AGC is the #1 trainer for BIM in the country. They get it.
What should we do?
-meet with the BIM drivers
-with office BIM managers.
(be aware, the estimators will want to get more info from the model has in it, e.g. Sq ft of paint.
-lock in relationship - be their best buddy for finding the right spec#, etc. So they'll never need to go to somebody else or struggle through it themselves and have a poor result.
-review office BIM keynotes
-provide attributes of the BoD
-assemble manuf objects
-add attributes in model
-add as-built model info
-add attributes into spec

Our role is moving toward a dynamic one as a knowledge manager, from a static one as a specification writer.

We should be working with our BIM Managers to develop training for Reviteers who are plugging in manuf info & other bits into the model, to make sure when schedules are published and specs "refreshed" or otherwise updated, we aren't seeing some as 5-digit, some 6-digit, some no digit, some UniFormat, etc.

See Kalin website for the PowerPoint.

Currently, without working together, bids are apples, oranges, and elephants
