Nooniversity: Beyond BIM: How VDC Drives Project Certainty from Concept Through Closeout

12:00 PM
Center for Architecture & Design | 1801 McGee St, Su Kansas City, MO 64108 Map

This program is being offered as a hybrid program. You may attend either in person or on Zoom.

Architects provide design integrity. Engineers prioritize technical precision. Contractors seek constructability. Too often, these goals collide, leading to miscommunication, costly change orders, and missed opportunities.

It’s time to move Beyond BIM. Join JE Dunn for a technical deep-dive into how Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) is transforming the project lifecycle. This session isn’t just about the software; it’s about a strategic shift toward a value-driven process. We will explore the "Why" behind early digital planning, demonstrating how informed decision-making enables expanding prefabrication, how the industry is bridging the gap between office and field, and progress towards a more seamless transition to a digital closeout.

Whether you are designing the vision or driving the stakes, come see how the industry’s most successful teams are leveraging VDC to drive project certainty.

This program is worth 1 LU. Lunch will be provided for those who attend in person. For those who attend on Zoom, you must attend the full session to get AIA credit. If you leave the Zoom meeting early, no credit will be reported.
