An interesting week catching up with colleagues in Copenhagen Business School, and with what is going on in the industry. Developments in new technologies for coordination and integration are leading to new issues for management in project-based design environments.
The Building Smart conference here drew my attention to the role of government in promoting Digital Construction in Denmark. There is an international set of delegates here, and I was particularly interested to learn about initiatives such as http://bimserver.org/ that are developing software on an open standard basis. Over the week I also had some conversations with colleagues in the USA this week, catching up on initatives such as the BIM Execution Planning Guide and a recent McGraw Hill guide to green BIM.

Connections to Danish Infrastructure Projects?
I got a boat from Harwich to Esberg and am now visiting colleagues at the Copenhagen Business School, and then hoping to catch a bit of the Building Smart conference that is going on in and around Copenhagen this week. Over the next year I am looking to understand best practice on major building and infrastructure projects in Denmark, as part of my AIM Fellowship work involves comparing UK practices to those in the USA and/or Denmark. I would be interested in hearing about any existing comparisons, or infrastructure projects that are using innovative new digital approaches to coordination.
