Melanie wrote a nice post earlier today. She asked:
Question: What does an owner want from BIM?
Answer: The same thing they wanted from CAD.
Which she says begs another question: Who is the Owner?
It isn't usually a simple answer like: "Let me introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Smith. We'll be designing their house." They are the owner and you've got to please them, unless they give their kids any say. If so you know which rooms will be the biggest!
She lists a bunch of people that the software and design industry may overlook too often, or at least focus on others too often, in their quest to satisfy this "owner" person.
Nice job Melanie!
