LEED certification demands that architects and MEP engineers document the many materials and processes that make up the LEED checklist. It asks for more documentation of greater detail from more team members.

Join us to explore how project information management (PIM) software from Newforma supports a more integrated practice by streamlining the management of the documentation required for LEED certification, including design decisions captured in project email.

 
• Explore how project information management (PIM) software can capture the design decisions required for LEED certification.
 
• Discover the advantages of a well-managed LEED certification process.
 
• Understand how technology simplifies information management and tracks project communication for LEED documentation.
 
• Learn how to use project information management technology to administer the documentation requirements of LEED certification.

About our webinar series, "Project information management for integrated project delivery"

BIM technology is a well-acknowledged pillar of integrated practice for coordinating and documenting the building design. But what about all the unstructured project communications and adjunct decision-making processes that surround the model as it evolves over the duration of the project?

PIM technology is the complementary solution to BIM. It manages the information and communications around the model. It supports collaboration, accountability and trust – both inside the firm and between external team members.

"Lean and Green" draws upon Newforma’s experience helping customers manage information and communications for over 120,000 projects. Presented by:

 
• Newforma Chief Executive Officer Ian Howell
 
• Newforma Vice President Bob Batcheler
