Alain is a long time innovator across multiple industries. In this podcast he shares his views on what innovation means to the AEC industries and discusses how to "do" innovation.

Ravi Wood, BIM Manager and architect at Gresham Smith, joins hosts Ralph Montague and John Egan for a discussion about innovation in the AEC industries.

Ravi shares his views on why standards are difficult to implement and therefore challenge broader adoption, particularly in North American regions. Each building is bespoke but why are we making our processes pertaining to digital construction bespoke? He reasons that we should not recreate the wheel but share in the lessons from implementing BIM on projects and move forward together.
