Session Abstract:
There's a consensus in architecture, engineering and construction that AEC has been slow to adopt the digital technologies that have profoundly transformed other industries. But new digital tools are emerging that help improve and automate the design and delivery of projects as well as the management of architectural practices.
Learning Outcomes:
• Understand both the potential benefits of a strategic approach to software and the elements of the digital ecosystem of architectural practice.
• Develop insight into how firms optimize practice management systems to support architects and deliver improved profitability
• Develop an overview of AI in current practice and the potential impacts of AI on the profession.
• Understand the principal challenges and potential pitfalls in the digital transformation process.
