Introduction of Miro another collaboration tool for brainstorming and organizing of ideas.
Use Agile and lean management to improve/ refine process.
Determine what is the best way to communicate each idea e.g. film, animation, writing, render etc. Act More commitment to our deliverables and assigned responsibilities.
Utilize BIM sync fully and edit process until we fit into the best work flow.
Commit to putting together FMT reports and additional documents for the thesis.
Understand and follow naming conventions.
Mentor (from Meeting Minutes)
Our main takeaway from mentor meetings was to refine and utilize our collaboration process and CDE environments. Mentor assigned us the task of practicing utilizing CDE for all issue management with a Revit plug-in, as well as using BIM sync to exchange all project files. It forced us to refine our naming conventions and folder organization. For Block 4, we used these suggestions to challenge our collaborative workflow.

Implementation
It is often acknowledged that the clients are the key drivers to steer the construction industry and they are the biggest beneficiary of BIM. Thus, as BIM consultant (Lead Appointed Party) for implementing BIM, an intelligible BIM framework to streamline the clients’ project workflow is devised.
BIM implementation benefits by providing better visualization of the project, designing a customized team workflow, acting as a guide to project participants, eliminating risks and improving collaboration amongst project stakeholders. Early involvement of the stakeholders can improve integration of the process and facilitates the use of BIM.
The various activities undertaken per project representing the main phases of the process: concept, design, construction and operation, and the placement of the main participants: client, designer, contractor, subcontractor and consultants, in the same lanes, involving real-time collaboration and coordination, favours an integrated agile project delivery.
Business process model and notation as structured graphical representation for specifying processes in BIM implementation is detailed, involving, people, process and technology integration.
In this document, BIM_SQUAD introduces our communication workspace on Slack, which is based on Agile principles. This platform is set up in synchrony with Trello, in order to connect with project management workspace. Detailed Slack workspace can be found at : https://shortest.link/2Nwj
Channels
We have created various communication channels which are connected to our project milestones, as well as general boards to organize different types of brainstorming. Decriptions included in chanels. Examples include:
#00-block-1-bim-mgmt
Channel dedicated to management related workflow in Block 1.
#04-fmt-final-block
Channel dedicated to Communication related to FINAL BLOCK workflow.
*FINAL DELIVERY
*ONLINE DEFENSE
Members
Member roles and responsibility describe in detail on Trello boards.
Apps
We have added a few apps that would be helpful in managing workflow, like Zoom for synchronous communication (daily scrum), Google calendar for due dates and meetings, google drive for sharing files, and simple poll for taking votes among the team. We have also synchronized Trello to reference project management boards.
