SYNOPSIS

The Covid-19 crisis has caused shifts to our working practices and transformed engineering industry landscapes beyond recognition. The speed with which organisations have had to react to the pandemic and its challenges has triggered an acceleration of digital transformation projects. Hence, adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) will become a trend as a technology platform that allows professionals such as architect and engineering firms to exchange and manage the project information effectively, even without physical meetings. Engineers are expected to prepare themselves and adapt to this trend to stay relevant in the industry. Are you ready?
