3	Industry Overview Waste: A Source of Opportunity Inefficiencies, mistakes and delays account for $200 billion of the $650 billion spent on construction in America every year. New wiring, The Economist, January 13^th, 2000 In the UK alone, the annual cost of rectifying construction defects caused by poorly detailed drawings and operatives being given incorrect instructions has been put a £1bn (≈$1.66bn). IT Construction Best Practice service, http://www.itcbp.org.uk The process of construction is itself repeated in its essentials from project to project. Indeed, research suggests that up to 80% of inputs into buildings are repeated. M4i, http://www.m4i.org.uk
4	Building Information Modeling The Value of Relationships
5	Building Information Modeling Technology - Effort and Effect
6	Building Information Modeling The Benefits Increased speed of delivery (time saved) Better coordination (fewer errors) Decreased costs (money saved) Greater productivity Higher-quality work New revenue and business opportunities
7	What are Your Most Critical Business Issues? Winning new and repeat business? Delivering the best possible quality work? Clients who expect more for less? Spending too much time on low-value tasks? Making money?
8	What are Your Most Critical Business Issues? Autodesk Revit 6 can help you... Gain a competitive advantage Work the way you think Improve coordination and quality Improve your business
9	Gain a Competitive Advantage The Problem Competition and client expectations are increasing the cost of winning new work. More architects are competing for fewer projects More architects are seeking to expand their business beyond their traditional areas of specialization Clients expect more complete design proposals as part of the selection process
10	Gain a Competitive Advantage The Solution Revit enhances communication through the rapid production and visualization of design options. Develop and present concept designs with less time and effort Improve clarity and completeness of design presentations Improve quality and level of service for existing clients
11	Gain a Competitive Advantage DMJM Design “They awarded the project to us because they see the value in what we bring to them as a cutting edge design team. Revit is an important element in the whole concept of how we deliver a product.”
12	Gain a Competitive Advantage Studio Kremer Architects
13	Gain a Competitive Advantage CASCO “Using Autodesk Revit software to model and visualize a project can save our clients millions.”
14	Work the Way You Think The Problem Inadequate information available to fully support decision-making at all phases of the project. The full consequences of changes to the design are difficult to determine. Your design thinking is difficult to communicate to the client.
15	Work the Way You Think The Solution Improved design collaboration within office; all members of project team work together on the same information. Design thinking is captured concurrently in documentation. Better design insight through in-process visualization and analysis. Works with the whole building. Documents and presentations are clear and complete.

19	Improve Coordination and Quality The Problem Errors in construction documents are expensive, damaging client relationships and exposing architects to potential liability. Manual inspection of drawing set required to find mistakes and coordination problems. Money is lost and time is wasted during construction administration. Client relationships are at stake when difficult problems are not found in a timely way.
20	Improve Coordination and Quality The Solution Revit eliminates defects caused by un-coordinated or poorly detailed drawings. Coordination is assured by the system. Document sets are more complete and understandable. Document sets are higher quality, reducing construction costs.

23	Improve Coordination and Quality CASCO “With Autodesk Revit, designers spend less time on tedious CAD chores and more time on design. In one account, we’ve seen productivity gains of 25 percent and have relocated those man-hours into a more productive design effort.”
24	Improve Coordination and Quality CASCO “The real benefits of Revit are that we’re getting a more coordinated and integrated set of documents as a byproduct of the model. All of the information CASCO develops for visualization and presentation is captured in the building information model for the construction documents. Nothing is lost.” Norm Birtley Manager of Information Systems
25	Improve Coordination and Quality e-SPECS for Revit Specification management system Integrated with Revit through ODBC Also integrated with Buzzsaw www.e-specs.com
26	Improve Your Business The Problem Economic pressures are driving down fees and accelerating design schedules. Insufficient time to properly communicate design intent leads to unmet client expectations. Clients are seeking a more complete menu of services from their consultants.
27	Improve Your Business The Solution Orders-of-magnitude reduction in production time from schematic design through construction documents Better documents mean fewer problems and less time spent in construction phase Easier to perform additional services for more fee (integration with estimator, move management, phasing)
28	Improve Your Business Huntsman Architectural Group
