Autumn Conferences - Dates for the Diaries

Some dates for the diaries below. I'll be attending/playing a small role in all three:

1. BIM through the Plan of Work Conference
Wed 24th September
- http://www.thenbs.com/training/conferences/bim-through-the-plan-of-work.asp
This conference will be split into four distinct sessions - each covering two stages of the RIBA Plan of Work and how BIM can be delivered well.
7-0 - Asset Management data and strategic direction
1-2 - Preparation, brief and concept design
3-4 - Developing the design through to a technical solution
5-6 - Construction, hand over and close out

Speakers will include The Cabinet Office's Dave Philp, the author of the RIBA Plan of Work 2013 Dale Sinclair and respected speakers from NBS, BAM, Tata Steel, Crossrail, ASDA, Arup Associates, Turner and Townsend, CIC, Transport for London and NBS.


2. NBS Live
Tues 4th November
- http://www.thenbs.com/nbs-live/
For the second year running an absolutely fantastic line-up of speakers has been arranged - view them all at the link below:

As with last year's NBS Live - there will be four diverse streams - BIM, Design, Sustainability and Business & Practice - so there is something for everyone.

If the conference is even half as good as last year, then I can thoroughly recommend it. I chaired the BIM stream last year - a review of this can be found below:

3. RIBA Guerrilla Tactics
Tues 11th and Wed 12th November

Finally, I'll also be at the RIBA Guerrilla Tactics two day conference.

I'm not speaking about BIM developments at this one but a different development we have been working on - I'll blog more details nearer the time on this one. But it should be a great couple of days as usual at this well-established event for the smaller architectural practice.
