Bringing BIM to the Field with Autodesk and Vela Systems
Attend this webcast to learn how you can bring the power of Autodesk® Building Information Modeling solutions to the job site, in conjunction with Vela Systems construction field software.
Special guest speaker, Josh Kanner of Vela Systems, will discuss how Autodesk and Vela can help automate the execution and oversight of field activities on construction and capital projects.
Instead of carrying a field notebook and paper plans or specs, job site users can work with Autodesk and Vela software on mobile computers to electronically access and update Building Information Models and carry out many other critical field activities. Josh will present specific case studies, including BIM-enabled field processes of commissioning, materials management and quality control.
Bringing BIM to the Field can take your projects' productivity to an entirely new level, helping to differentiate your business during the bidding process and beyond. Attend this webcast to learn more.
