Engineering Management Institute Podcast: Using Open Building Information Modeling for Remarkable Project Collaboration

Open Building Information Modeling (Open BIM) uses open data and process standards alongside open application programming interface data to improve interoperability and information sharing across software platforms used across different phases of a project and asset lifecycle. It aligns multidisciplinary teams together and unlocks powerful opportunities to enhance data flows, automate workflows, integrate systems and generate actionable insights that drive smarter decision-making and greater innovation.

In this episode of the Engineering Management Institute’s AEC Engineering and Technology Podcast, Jagannath Mallela, senior vice president and managing director of Advisory and Planning at WSP in the U.S., defines Open BIM, explains what makes it different from traditional BIM approaches and what it takes to implement, and discusses why it is such powerful tool for driving improved construction project outcomes.
