Todd Takes
1. The Golden Thread of information that Rob talked about is very important to breakdown the silos that exist, increase communication between stakeholders and track your information throughout the lifecycle when you need it.
2. I love a good interoperability conversation. It relates to another of my favorite topics, the expected experience of construction. We expect information to be synced in our personal lives. The same should apply for construction.
3. It is crucial to have a data strategy in place. Ask yourself the following: what data do you need to collect? Why do you need to collect it? How are you going to collect it? What are you going to use the data for after you have collected it?
