Norman Melendres & John Newman This is Norm & John on BIM and Project Control. We are passionate about Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Project Control (e.g. scheduling, estimating, risk, value engineering, etc.) as it applies to the construction industry. It's our goal to integrate all Project Control areas of practice with the 3-D model. Join us as we explore new disruptive technologies and learn more about the Project Control profession. 4a4f726a-76b6-4119-80ce-05e5d72a2294 This is Norm & John on BIM and Project Control.

We discuss his involvement with the 4D Construction Group (4DCG). Our conversation also delves into the possibilities of BIM and some of the hurdles of adoption. We also encourage our listeners to check out the 4DCG. They have a lot of good educational and process material. Their goal is to accelerate the adoption of 4D scheduling.
