NY Collaboration User Group Is a Success!
We received this great report from Steve Williams about the first NY User Group meeting.
Last Friday over a dozen New Yorkers gathered over lunch to meet and discuss collaborative project management. Attendees from architecture, engineering, and construction firms, as well as owners, attended our first New York City Collaborative Project Management User Group.
Most of the audience that attended is currently using Constructware on projects in NYC, although we also had several Buzzsaw users attend as well.
There were some great suggestions and discussions, such as tracking email communications, managing permissions in Constructware, and providing the best possible support for users to ensure buy-in and use of a collaborative system. Future topics will include presentations by members on how they are using Buzzsaw and/or Constructware, and how people manage the design coordination when they are using Revit.
Several people mentioned how they wanted to take the flat screen plasma TV home with them (Martin and I are pictured here with some of the representatives from the NY Metropolitan Transportation Authority)…since it’s primarily an Autodesk Media & Entertainment office we do happen to have an Xbox 360 hooked up to it.
The next meeting will be held on Friday, December 14th at 12pm back at the Autodesk office in New York City. Lunch will be provided again by Autodesk. To be included on the email distribution list, please contact me at steve.williams@autodesk.com.
