Managing the Legal and Practice Issues of BIM
AIA Chicago, 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 250
Used properly, BIM can improve a design firm’s productivity, quality and project team relationships. Combined with IPD principles, BIM can fundamentally change and add value to the design and construction process and Owner’s facility management tools.
This program will explore the benefits of implementing BIM, the practice implications of migrating from CAD to BIM, and the investments required in tools and technology, quality management standards, processes and protocols, and professional staff behavior. Participants will gain important information about the legal implications of using BIM and develop strategies to manage this professional liability risk through use of the AIA digital practice contract documents and related communication protocols.
