The Summer 2010 BIMForum will focus on the primary principles involved in Lean design and construction and how building information modeling (BIM) can best be integrated into Lean construction practices. Anyone interested in learning more about BIM or developing the knowledge and competency needed to successfully implement BIM in your organization is encouraged to attend. Early registration is encouraged.
On June 17 & 18, contractors, owners, architects, and engineers will take over Kansas City to discuss BIM enabled Lean Construction. BIMForum 1800 members have grown into an industry-leading group focusing on BIM and it's affects on the construction industry. The BIMForum has quickly become the can't-miss event for those interested in the application of virtual design and construction for the AEC industry.
The June meeting will focus on the primary principles revolving around Lean Design and Construction and how BIM can best be integrated into to Lean practices AND how Lean can be Integrated into BIM practices, including:
- How Virtual Design and Construction and Building Information Modeling enhanced the deployment of Lean practices in a specific projects and organizations.
- How Lean practices enhanced the effectiveness and efficiency of BIM efforts on projects and companies.
- How technology (e.g. laser scanning, digital layout/laser-guided surveying, and RFID) is used in conjunction with BIM to support Lean methods.
- How to conduct training programs to facilitate the deployment of BIM and Lean principles within an organization.
