State and Federal construction building projects, please stop wasting my tax dollars by not requiring BIM Coordination or providing any sort of BIM Coordination Specifications on mid to large projects. Yes, this project needs BIM. At over 130k SF, more content then the images show, and congestion like this throughout, there is great risk of delays and claims due to the number of changes that will be required. But without the specifications and clear requirements, not everyone will even include BIM coordination. For those contractors who want so utilize BIM, with no BIM Spec provided, most will receive lack luster results in the end due to the chasing to the bottom, low-cost approach. And unfortunately with these kinds projects, BIM receives a bad representation...I wonder why. I have seen countless project like this and I hear too many of them not going well for the contractors and owners involved. I feel for these contractors and all those from the management to the field. It doesn't have to be this way! If you have the ability to stop this, there are solutions. One option is we provide a BIM Commissioning service to owners, owner representatives, and design build or GC/CM contractors. With this service we bring clear BIM Specifications and accountability across the entire project life cycle so everyone can win in the end with BIM. #BIMBetter #BuildBetter #BIMCoordination

If you’re interested in starting BIM/VDC training for your training center, there are three things you need to consider: 1) Do we have a staff or cadre that is willing to change how they teach to accommodate the shift into the world of tech and innovation? 2) Do we have the infrastructure to deploy the type of tech we are planning to train on? 3) Is there anyone else who’s already done this that can tell us what we should avoid so we don’t burn resources on a bad play? The answer is, “YES! There are a bunch of people who’ve made the shift, and ton who’ve been burned, and a few who are willing to help you…”. We got your back! #MoxiesBDC #ContentOrigin #TrainingDevelopment

Very interesting approach. When you use as much energy as data centers tend to do in their operations, reducing the embodied carbon of the construction materials is a novel design consideration.

🌍 **Join Us in Supporting Mauro Rosales and Balfour Beatty South Florida for Bridges to Prosperity!** 🌍 I am proud to share that my friend and colleague Mauro Rosales will be traveling to Rwanda to represent Balfour Beatty South Florida in partnership with **Bridges to Prosperity (B2P)**, a nonprofit dedicated to connecting rural communities through pedestrian trailbridges. These bridges provide life-changing connectivity, improving access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. 🏗️ The impact of these bridges is enormous. A recent study from the University of Notre Dame found that bridge connectivity increases farm profits by 75%, labor market income by 36%, and household income by 30%. Since its foundation, B2P has built over 450 bridges, positively impacting more than 1.5 million people across 21 countries. Mauro’s mission in Rwanda will help construct a trailbridge that can transform entire communities. These bridges are cost-effective, durable, and safe, providing critical infrastructure for remote areas. ✨ **How You Can Help:** We are seeking sponsorship and support for Mauro’s efforts. By contributing, you’ll be helping to build a better future for rural communities that depend on these bridges for basic needs. Every bit of support goes a long way in making a lasting impact. Please consider contributing to this incredible cause and sharing this post with your networks! Together, we can make a meaningful difference. #BridgeToProsperity #RuralDevelopment #InfrastructureForGood #BalfourBeatty #SocialImpact #SupportTheCause

How many think what would happen when question about todys building regulations would be loaded into ChatGPT in search of an answer. I have a feeling it may hallucinate. Strategic repositioning of construction or manufactured housing communities offers a powerful opportunity to wasteful routines and increase property value offerings and better investment returns. If curious, Link to article below explores what a "Czar" centralized approach could mean for all types of construction in the U.S. as it relates to current fragmented system.

Managing design, submittals, and other construction document reviews for different projects simultaneously can be challenging. But with the right document management and collaboration platform, you can keep all project information and stakeholders in one place, reduce errors, and meet project deadlines. Here's an example ⬇️
