A few weeks ago, as part of preparing for this year's COFES, I was asked to write "something short and contentious" to help jump-start the conversations at the event.

With the gracious permission of EAReport Editor-in-Chief David Cohn, I have revised and extended my remarks for AECnews. Click here for the article "I Love BIM: I Hate BIM."
