2.  Applications for BIM in Existing Buildings and Cloud Document Management power point presentation

Building Information Model (BIM) software and processes leverage the power of visual relational databases to improve decision making and coordination throughout the building design effort. New visualization and simulation tools reveal the effects of decisions made prior to the commitment of funds to the construction phase, thereby reducing the effects of poor decisions on the designers, builders, owners, operators and insurers. In similar fashion, Cloud Computing provides a collaborative process that leverages web-based BIM capabilities and traditional Document Management to improve coordination of various disciplines during the design process.

3.  Introduction to Cloud Services for Buildings  power point presentation

The Cloud for the real estate industry has become real. As we see applications and services move 'off-site' and offered and provided by hosted service providers (SaaS or Software as a Service), you can start to imagine the opportunities for managing real estate, reducing energy and providing value-added applications to the users of buildings. Examples such as intelligent automated continuous commissioning a Path to Optimized Operations & Energy Efficiency. Our new mission is to expose how the dot com & org are using the cloud to provide their products and services. The identification and use of these valuable industry cloud connectors is essential to propel our industry forward at warp speed so it can radically change to survive.
