How do construction leaders make better decisions in a world overflowing with data? Recorded live at Autodesk University 2025, this conversation with Frank Phillips and Ashley Grassano from the University of Florida explores how curiosity, culture, and clear communication help teams turn raw information into meaningful action. Frank and Ashley share how the AEC industry can shift from reactive to proactive by embracing data literacy, asking better questions, and building trust between the field and the office. From forecasting risks to creating visibility across teams, this episode highlights how decision-making improves when people, process, and technology finally align. In this episode you'll learn: Why curiosity (not dashboards) is the real driver of innovation How data transparency builds trust across construction teams Practical steps for improving decision-making in fast-paced environments MEET OUR GUESTS Frank Phillips is Director of Business Affairs Technical Services at University of Florida, where he has over two decades of career experience. Ashely Grassano is Space & GIS Manager at the University of Florida. She manages a team of BIM Coordinators, Space Planners, and GIS Administrators.    TODD TAKES Make Old Buildings Smarter, Not “Smart” A campus-wide push toward digital twins is turning legacy facilities into data-ready assets. The playbook: uplift Revit to a consistent minimum spec, link key MEP assets for location and maintenance, stream live data into Tandem, and anchor everything with GIS. It's practical, phased modernization—form meets function. Data Is an Asset—Treat It Like One Ownership and flow matter. From ACC adoption to Cost rollout, success comes from redefining processes (not lift-and-shift), onboarding project-by-project, and measuring wins by outcomes (like contractors getting paid). The ethos: the owner funds the work, the owner owns the data—and partners help operationalize it. Scan, Map, Connect—and Then Automate LiDAR for utilities and interiors, geospatially aligned campus models, ACC + Tandem integration, and emerging AI/API upgrades (including easier auth) are building a true “smart campus” foundation. Pair top-down sponsorship with bottom-up field buy-in, and you get faster finds at 2 a.m., fewer “unknowns,” and clearer ROI.   MORE RESOURCES Thanks for listening!

About William:In the 90s, I cut my teeth in LA building oil refineries and large semiconductor projects for Jacobs Engineering. Construction was always more interesting to me than designing microelectronic circuits. During this time, I learned about procurement, project management, and the many intricacies of electrical engineering on large scale projects, while studying finance at Cal State Long Beach at night.Our engineering firm was started shortly afterward in 1996 under the name Industrial Power Engineering Corporation, a big title for a small company at the time. Over the next 28 years, we have expanded to other industries, built larger and larger projects, survived two recessions, rebuilt, rebranded, made a bunch of mistakes along the way, and ultimately came to where we are today as Volta, serving international clients and engineering facilities with sizes approaching $2B TCV.Aside from working with what I feel is a great bunch of people we call our team here, I really enjoy working with architects, contractors, owners, and other consultants directly in our project activities. Our purpose at volta is infinite possibilities, which is to say we want to drive our business and culture at scale with the intention to open doors and possibilities for our employees and all of our stakeholders. We know to do this, we will need to pursue excellence in all areas of our business and continue to bring in great people.Personal interests include architectural design, physical training, and travel. Pets include English yellow labs. A former surfer, skater, and bass player. A lifelong LA Dodgers fan.www.VoltaUS.com-----------------------------Try Surfboard & Autocircuit for free.

AEC marketing and business development are changing fast. In this episode, Deirdre Booth talks with Scott Butcher of Stambaugh Ness about what is reshaping the work today and what leaders need next. They cover the talent crunch, the “missing middle,” and why environmental scanning belongs in every plan. They discuss practical uses of AI, how early adopters are already productizing tools, and what happens when firms delay. Scott makes the case for true marketing leadership at the table, not just a new title, and offers a six month playbook that focuses on three use cases for AI, stronger BD and marketing alignment, and a habit of testing and learning. The conversation closes with clear risks of waiting, including loss of relevance and recruiting challenges, and a reminder that agility wins when conditions shift.

“Residential was never my preference. I landed here because I graduated right as the pandemic hit, and the entire industry stalled—except residential.”Or maybe you've caught yourself saying, “I'm bored with residential and want to switch to commercial projects.”Many interior designers find themselves stuck in residential work—not because it's their passion, but because it was the most accessible way to start. Yet making the leap into commercial interior design can feel overwhelming when you're unsure about business operations, contracts, or the technology skills needed to compete.In this episode, Marcy Sagel shares her journey from residential to commercial design, emphasizing the importance of understanding business operations and leveraging new technologies like Revit to stay ahead. She breaks down the realities of running a design firm, the challenges of transitioning into commercial projects, and the strategies that helped her thrive in a constantly evolving industry. You'll also hear how she builds strong client relationships, fosters collaboration, and creates her training program, Designer Bank, to help designers sharpen their technical skills.

Bret Taylor's legendary career includes being CTO of Meta, co-CEO of Salesforce, chairman of the board at OpenAI (yes, during that drama), co-creating both Google Maps and the Like button, and founding three companies. Today he's the founder and CEO of Sierra, an AI agent company transforming customer service. He's one of the few people I've met who's been wildly successful at every level—from engineer to C-suite executive to founder—and across almost every discipline, including PM, engineer, CTO, COO, CPO, CEO, and board member.In this conversation, you'll learn:1. The brutal product review that nearly ended his Google career—and how that failure led to creating Google Maps2. The question Sheryl Sandberg taught him to ask every morning (“What's the most impactful thing I can do today?”) that transformed how he approached every role3. The three AI market segments that matter4. Why AI agents will replace SaaS products5. His framework for knowing whose advice to actually listen to—and how that came in handy during the OpenAI board drama6. The counterintuitive go-to-market strategy most AI startups get wrong7. Sierra's outcome-based pricing model that's transforming how enterprise software is sold (and why every SaaS company should adopt it)8.

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, I had the pleasure of speaking with Vance Lazar from Pioneer Architecture. Vance has a long and impressive background in architectural design, with a strong focus on logistics and industrial facilities. He walked me through his career path, from early work in visualization to launching his own firm that's dedicated to logistics. Vance prefers the term "logistics" over "industrial" because he believes the field is all about speed, efficiency, and true collaboration.We covered a lot of ground, including site planning, ceiling heights, bay spacing, and growing power demands from electrification and automation. Vance talked about the importance of understanding local markets and how design needs shift from place to place, like Phoenix versus Indiana. He also highlighted how critical it is to work closely with partners across all disciplines, whether it's engineers or contractors, to avoid missteps and improve project outcomes.One of the most fascinating parts was Vance's explanation of how his team uses Revit and advanced visualization tools to create immersive virtual walk-throughs. Clients can experience a space before a shovel hits the ground, which helps speed up the entire process. We wrapped up with a personal moment, as Vance shared that his son is starting an internship in logistics and that my book played a small part in inspiring that path. It was a great conversation and I really appreciated his insight.About:Vance Lazar, originally born in Las Vegas but raised in California alongside his identical twin brother Kirk, has returned to his roots by obtaining his architectural license in Nevada. With extensive expertise spanning six other States including Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky – Lazar's homecoming promises a blend of fresh perspectives and innovative designs for Nevada's Logistics Market.Reflecting on his hometown roots, Lazar reminisces, “Though raised in California, Vegas has always been in my blood. We used to joke that we were born on a craps table, with Mom rolling snake eyes.” Local stakeholders eagerly anticipate collaborating with Lazar on upcoming projects, recognizing his talent as a driving force behind elevating Nevada's built environment. With his license secured, Lazar is prepared to redefine the architectural narrative of his beloved Las Vegas and beyond, including the industrial spaces vital to the state's economic landscape.Connect:Website: http://pioneerarchitecture.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vance-lazar-1975a412--

IntroductionToday we welcome Joe Purtle, who is here to talk to us about concrete forms. Joe has been in construction for well over two decades, and he's currently the COO of Doka, which specializes in forming and shoring. Eddie shares a bit about his experience in construction back in the 2x4 and plywood days. He shares how cool it's been to see the complexity of forms increase over time and to see how those forms have become woven into BIM software.We discuss how designers and other stakeholders view concrete forms. Joe explains that the placement of concrete drives the schedule on many large projects. And the placement of concrete is largely dependent on the completion of formwork. Cycling of formwork and big dadgum messesEddie asks Joe to explain the cycling (reuse) of forms on large projects. Doka's job is to understand the complicated aspects of forming and pouring and how these complexities can affect a schedule. We discuss the benefits of modular approaches and cycling of forms. Joe discusses the importance of knowledgeable planning and the unfortunate results when things to wrong and a form gets trapped. It's what the bros and their Georgia buddies would call a “dadgum mess.”Joe shares about how he has seen companies process decisions related to renting vs. buying. He also discusses sustainability issues and equipment that measures temperature and pressure to optimize the curing process. We get into the optimization of pouring and the incorporation of reusable sensors that give designers and project managers the ability to know things they would have previously not known without expensive, messy tests. Prefab of formworkEddie asks Joe to share about prefab work such as cast-in-place parking garages. Joe explains that Doka can build and ship complete beam forms that are pretty much ready to plug and play when they arrive at the job site. They have CNC machines that can put curves into forms with highly detailed specs when the customer wants it.   Tyler connects these abilities to the overall increase in complexity of structures. Joe shares about the pride we've discussed in previous episodes that comes with seeing a really cool building and being able to say you had something to do with that. BIM ModelingEddie asks Joe to explain how Doka's work integrates with the BIM process. He explains that they're already working within Revit and Tekla but that they are quickly extending their integration even further. We discuss how AI is streamline design. Then there are the AI features that simply increase the team's everyday operations. Joe shares some thoughts about “real BIM” vs. “Hollywood BIM” and how these differences affect scheduling. Eddie shares some thoughts from a designer's perspective as well as thoughts about storing huge form components that are not easy to move. We spend some time discussing the design rules being used to form AI and how significantly this process will likely change design work in the future. Then we discuss the role that human insight and finesse play in this process. Megaphone Message Joe's message to the industry is this: The industry needs to come together and stop working in silos. The sooner we can create true collaboration through the available technologies, the sooner we'll progress to a future we can't even imagine at this point. Find Joe on LinkedIn Check out the partners that make our show possible.Find Us Online: BrosPodcast.com - LinkedIn - Youtube - Instagram - Facebook - TikTok - Eddie's LinkedIn - Tyler's LinkedInIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to us!
