Roles & Responsibilities in The New CAD

Building Information Modeling is a process. It relies on brains and vision more than any one piece of software. A firm engaged in the transition to BIM will find a transformation of roles and responsibilities as a consequence. CAD operators will evolve into technologists; or knowledge capture specialists or object creators. The IT specialist will not look at the network in the same way any more.

Have a look at the following link: On Land Environment Info

James Murray is a long time ArchiCAD user and an architect who supports the BIM systems at Rill & Decker, Architects PC, an architectural firm in Bethesda, Maryland. At Rill and Decker the pace of change appears to have required a new strategy replacing both the traditional notion of the CAD Standards Manual and the traditional (?) notion of the office intranet.

If you are an ArchiCAD user you are certain to find useful information at On Land. I dare say, if you're engaged in the practise of residential architecture you're likely to find something here, too.
