Next week, attendees of the International Highway Engineering Exchange (IHEEP) Conference will have the opportunity to learn how the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and Kansas Department of Transportation (KS-DOT) are capitalizing on digital communication to shorten timelines and manage projects throughout the entire project lifecycle.
New government incentives like MAP-21’s Technology and Innovation Deployment Program are encouraging DOTs to strongly consider implementing digital workflows. With this in mind, Bluebeam® Software, leading developer of markup and collaboration solutions, will present a timely session illustrating how transportation project teams are going paperless to complete projects faster and under budget.
Bluebeam’s VP of Strategic Alliances, Sasha Reed, and Manchester General Manager, James Chambers, will also highlight how Burns & McDonnell leveraged Bluebeam’s flagship solution, Bluebeam Revu®, and integrated cloud collaboration solution, Bluebeam Studio™, to coordinate plan utility work on the Kansas City Downtown Streetcar project.
Reed has over 10 years of experience working directly in the AEC market and has insider knowledge of the industry’s challenges and needs. In her role at Bluebeam, Reed interacts directly with AEC leaders to better understand the long-range goals of the industry and help align Bluebeam’s technologies.
Chambers has a unique 17-year background in software, IT, and architecture, engineering and construction vertical markets. Previously, Chambers was the Production Technologies Engineer at the civil engineering firm Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, where he assisted with deploying, supporting and training users on Bluebeam Revu as part of a global electronic workflow migration project.
Bluebeam’s session, “Innovations in Digital Design: How Bluebeam is Changing the Project Lifecycle,” will be presented on September 28, 2014 at 3:45pm ET at Harrah’s Hotel in New Orleans, LA.
