AECCafe Questionnaire: How Will AEC Firms Manage During the Pandemic?Wednesday, March 18th, 2020Every hour the situation with the Covid19 virus pandemic is changing. While people are taking the utmost precautions, AEC and visualization firms are going to have to be resilient and make some necessary adjustments, while continuing to provide services. It is fortunate that technology provides us ways to interact with people other than face to face.

Morgan/Getty Images) AECCafe Year In Review 2019Thursday, December 19th, 2019Each year when I look back on what was accomplished during the technology year, I’m amazed at how many of the same topics come up. The reason for this is most likely because none of the challenges put before the AEC industry are going to be solved that easily. The technology used to solve real-world problems keeps evolving and the problems themselves become morphed or more urgent. For example, climate change has been on our agenda for several years now. It’s not going to go away.
