  • Guide subcontractor selection and alignment with BIM/VDC expectations
  • Train, mentor, and support team members in VDC tools, workflows, and best practices
  • Champion adoption of emerging technologies such as AR/VR, reality capture, and advanced modeling tools
  • Collaborate with IT and project teams to ensure tools and systems are optimized for performance
  • Continuously improve VDC processes, workflows, and standards across the organization


What Success Looks Like

  • Strong alignment across teams, improving collaboration and communication
  • Consistent, high-quality VDC deliverables across projects
  • Successful adoption of VDC tools and workflows across teams
  • Trusted leadership and guidance for both project teams and VDC staff
  • Continuous improvement in how we use technology to deliver projects
