    Hey BWB Fans, I’ll be the first to admit that while we love our guests and our format, every now and then you just have to go freeform. Dave and I had no agenda and just wanted to catch up on BIM, technology in general, and discuss somethings we’ve been seeing in the industry. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brewingwithbim/support

    Hey BWB Fans, In this episode we start near the beginning identifying broken handover process between firms and disciplines on a project. Some of these age old problems still occur despite new contract types, BIM execution plans, and even long standing relationships. We know there is more here than meets the eye but we talk about this issue and others we are seeing and dive into how cloud collaboration (ignited by the pandemic) is resolving pieces - or at the very least getting the traditional players to take a deeper look at old practices. If you like this episode and want to be part of the upcoming series for mapping the whole construction process and identifying common issues contact us.

    BWB Episode 50 - A Leg Up with Lenovo

    Hey BWB Fans, It’s hard to believe but this was our 50th episode and what an episode it was. For the big 5-0 we got to talk tech with a man who has been behind the scenes of some of the major technology transitions in the AEC industry. Of course I am talking about none other than Chris Ruffo. Like most of us in AEC tech, Chris’s path into the industry was somewhat untraditional. Chris’s path began with Alias. That name should sound familiar to all in the AEC tech space as they were acquired by Autodesk. Alias had a number of applications but they were becoming known by Architects for their visualization tool, Maya. After the acquisition Chris worked for Autodesk focusing on the Forge platform. For those unfamiliar with Forge- Forge is a series of APIs that allow for the pushing, pulling. analyzing, dissecting, manipulating, and aggregating of data. These APIs are ever growing and make up the core of Autodesk’s Construction Cloud. Forge allows users to create their own automations and tie into existing systems. For example, JE Dunn tied theirs to a customized inhouse estimation database to help accelerate the preconstruction phase. As for Chris, his future only got brighter. After Forge, he spent some time at Epic Games before landing at Lenovo. Lenovo has literally been powering the AEC industry. Their partnerships with chip makers as well as their focus on customer driven development is spurring new innovations that will enable the future of the AEC industry. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brewingwithbim/support
