CHOP CHAT Chapter 5.6

Delve into the processes and technology that change architectural production practices and the structure of the design-construction industry supply chain at this session, featuring chapter 5.6 of the Canadian Handbook of Practice for Architects (CHOP). This essential guide provides valuable insights into the professional practice of architecture in Canada. 

We'll discuss the adoption, integration, and optimization of BIM in architectural practice, which requires operational process transformation and business model redesign. This chapter emphasizes the importance of integrating processes across the design-construction-operation supply chain, rethinking a firm's value proposition, and exploring different channels to deliver value to clients. It also covers the collaborative development and management of an integrated digital model containing information about a building's assets over its lifecycle.
