Here’s how the 4D model can help the construction industry

Greg Demchak has had an illustrious career path aligned with technology – from being involved with Revit back in the early 2000s to SYNCHRO about five years ago and now Director - Digital Innovation Lab with Bentley. He tells us about the state of construction software today and explains what’s no longer a thing of sci-fi today, but actual reality.

Can you give a brief overview on how construction technology solutions have evolved over time?
When I began my career at Revit technology, which was a start-up acquired by Autodesk, it began a path for me to get the market interested in the idea that 3D modeling is approachable and something that architects and contractors should be doing. It set a foundation for BIM, and architects started using it, leading the construction companies in leveraging their 3D models. This logical progression led me to SYNCHRO. Once the market started building intelligent 3D models, contractors started requesting access to those models.

So, you had architects sharing these…
