In this episode, Patrick details the nuances of their coordination solution and its development. If you recall, the 12-company consortium was left with audacious goals, but far less influence and very little funding. It was time to sell the concept globally, and find ways to expand. This episode also features conversations with several key contributors to the early development of bSI:

He is engaged as the US Representative for buildingSMART International, tasked with re-establishing the US Chapter.
