Timothy Halvorson joins the podcast to talk about the challenges of technology implementation in firms. He shares his experiences in both traditional and tech-focused roles in the AEC industry, and underlines the importance of understanding people, processes, and the potential of technology. We also touch upon the struggle of change in firms, the evolving role of a BIM manager, the role of AI in creativity and efficiency, the importance of automating low level tasks, the role of standards in a firm, the shift to cloud-based software, and the complexity of modern software.
