2 A unique opportunity in construction Evolution in tools, revolution in business (Ben Schwegler, WDI) firms think that change is less risky than continuing business as usual current construction environment challenges current tools and theories Environment for construction clients is changing globalization faster time to market, revenue, profit many more stakeholders Competitors are changing new firms (large and small) scope of services information, communication, and visualization technology more specialists, more generalists Project managers gained experience in non-networked world thousands of project managers will need IT re-education What assets are more valuable than your data and knowledge? DBOO - provide value through information Extend life-time of design & construction data Reduce transaction costs to find, interpret, and display existing data Pay attention to data front-ends Justify investment in 3D model 2
