Abstract
The evolution of integrated design and delivery processes combined with the adoption of various emerging building lifecycle information management technologies is steadily bringing measurable improvements to the industry of the built environment. Not only is this increasing the efficiency and the quality of project outcomes, but it is enabling substantial new possibilities for innovation in design and delivery. This chapter explores some of the areas of interest, the highlights and the new possibilities brought about by the adoption of these new technologies and working practices in design and construction.
