KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘This is something that I really like. I'm very passionate about the whole life cycle of a building and looking at the endgame at the beginning.'
‘Because everybody is working on the one platform and is collaborating, there is a lot more efficiency because you're not piping data from one person to the next person.'
‘You can look at the cost impact. You can look at the time impact of the various options so the client can make seriously informed decisions.'
‘There is complete transparency from the beginning . So all the parties are building this up together on a common data environment. And then you have graphical and non graphical data which can all be used by all the parties as you build up the specifications and other information. So it really does start to look at this in a holistic way.'
