Understanding the Gap:
What owners want vs. What contractors can offer
The TEXO Association in Dallas and Texas A&M University jointly present a two-day event where you will have a chance to understand the gap between what owners want and what contractors can offer with BIM.
A panel discussion with the owner's representatives (Government, Healthcare Industry, Retail Industry), General Contractors, and Sub-Contractors will help you establish the right strategy for BIM.
With the breakout session, you will also have a chance to hear the lessons learned from the "First BIM Project" and some advanced topics that will get you inspired from.
So save your day on September 23 (Thursday) and 24 (Friday), 2010 for the BIM Texas 2010.
