The path of least resistance often leads you to the right destination, IF you focus on solving the right problems. But how can we be sure that today’s "solution" isn't just a set up for tomorrow's headache? It's the innovator's dilemma.
Do we evolve bit by bit over time by sustaining the benefits of experience, or do we adopt entirely new models and practice responsible, disruptive innovation?
With the industry's need to generate efficiencies stronger than ever, Sasha Reed, Bluebeam VP of Strategic Development, introduces the models and methods necessary to make the right changes to addresses the real challenges on your specific job site.
Construction will not change unless we start responsibly breaking things. Interoperability is no longer a buzzword. Integrations are the new reality.
Learn how to give your teams the permission to responsibly break things and create ecosystems of people, process, and technology to truly evolve our industry.
