On September 11-12, Viren Thakur, Rajeev Patni , Purvi Sharma and Sunil Joshi on behalf of DGTRA had the privilege of attending the BIM Coordinators Summit 2024 as a Bronze Sponsor for the Event. The event brought together brilliant minds from across the AECO industry, providing a platform for thought-provoking discussions on the latest trends in Building Information Modeling (BIM).
The BIM Coordinators Summit 2024 highlighted the growing synergy between BIM, AI, reality capture, and VR. This convergence of technologies is driving a new era of digital construction, marked by increased efficiency, innovation, and collaboration.
As we move forward, staying informed about these advancements and integrating them into our workflows will be essential for leveraging their full potential. The future of construction is not just about adopting new tools but about harmonizing these tools to create more effective, accurate, and sustainable building practices.
The summit was a testament to the vibrant and evolving landscape of the AECO Firms. By embracing these emerging technologies, we are not only enhancing how we build but also setting new standards for excellence and efficiency in the field.
The sessions ranged from ISO 19650 compliance strategies to the impact of AI on BIM, sustainable design, and digital twins. Key topics, including cost management, risk mitigation, and advanced technologies like cloud computing, reality capture, and pyRevit, were explored. Industry leaders shared their expertise, offering actionable insights into BIM’s evolving role in construction and design.
The sessions on value-driven cost management, overcoming BIM implementation challenges, and human-centric digital transformation were particularly impactful. The presentation on “Retrofit Risk” shed light on the complexities of modern construction, while discussions on “Strategic Tailoring” showcased how BIM can optimize workflows in AECO projects. Engaging panel discussions brought diverse perspectives from leaders in construction, design, operations, and data governance, emphasizing BIM’s potential in shaping future practices.
DGTRA also had the opportunity to showcase our new Product: D360 Secure App to the visitors of our Booth. The visit was an eye opener for many who are working on Autodesk Construction Cloud / BIM360. They realized the importance of the Permission Management feature on ACC/BIM360 and how much of their data was still being shared with former consultants, vendors, and employees. Seeing everything on the D360 Secure dashboard made it easy for them to secure their project data and quickly address any issues with access.
In Summary, the summit fostered a collaborative and innovative environment, leaving attendees with new perspectives and practical solutions for their projects. It was clear that the future of the construction industry lies in the continued adoption of advanced technologies and strategic innovation.
