  Construction Tech Sales Explained with Gustavo de Bardeci

  Aug 16, 202635 minS1

  In construction tech, selling is really consulting. How BIM software adoption, trust and AI are reshaping construction technology sales. Construction has a complicated relationship with the word "sales." In an industry built around engineers, architects, and BIM managers, the salesperson is often the most misunderstood person in the room and yet adoption, trust, and whether good technology actually reaches the field depend on getting that role right. In this episode, Andrea sits down with Gustave de Bardeci, a sales professional and APAC territory manager at Revizto who has spent his career on the commercial side of construction software, including formative years at Aconex. Gus moved from Argentina to Australia with no job, no network, and a language barrier, and rebuilt himself into a trusted advisor for some of the most technical buyers in the market.

  Inside buildingSMART - The Future of IFC with Eric Bugeja

  Aug 4, 202643 minS1

  Why open standards and structured data decide whether AI in construction delivers results or scales your mistakes. BIM, IFC and vendor lock-in. AI is only as good as the data it's given, and construction has spent decades producing fragmented, ungoverned information. In this episode, we sit down with Eric Bugeja, Chairperson of buildingSMART Australasia, board member at buildingSMART International, and founder of consulting and training firm Kephron. Eric traces his path from graduate mechanical engineer, to leading multidisciplinary BIM teams and shaping open standards for the global digital construction community. The conversation covers why vendor lock-in is a business risk rather than an IT preference, why most IFC frustration comes from poor information requirements rather than the format itself, and where the next generation of open standards is heading: cloud-based, AI-capable, connected data instead of file transmission. If you work in BIM, digital engineering, or project delivery, this one offers a clear mental model for preparing your data, your software choices, and your leadership for what's coming. The engineers who make the shift, Eric notes, never go back. This episode explains why.

  The Most Overhyped Tech in BIM Isn't AI with Dhanjeet Sah

  Jul 23, 202642 minS1

  After 27 years in BIM, why the digital twin flopped while the common data environment quietly reshaped digital construction and AI workflows. Every few years, the construction industry is told a new technology will change everything. Some do. Most don't. The harder skill isn't spotting the hype, it's knowing which shift is actually worth your time. In this episode, Dhanjeet Sah, Studio BIM Manager at FK Architects, draws on 27 years across Nepal, Dubai, Singapore, and Australia to trace the industry's path from CAD to BIM to digital engineering, and now to AI. Having beta-tested Autodesk software since the early 2000s, he has watched these cycles up close. The conversation is less about tools and more about judgment: how to separate durable change from noise.

  5 Bold Predictions for the Construction Industry with Mirco Bianchini

  Jul 7, 202652 minS1

  Five AI predictions for construction: why the point-solution app store dies, agentic automation takes over, and per-seat pricing ends. Website: h ttps://www.digitalconstructionpodcast.com Episodes: https://www.digitalconstructionpodcast.com/episodes Episode notes: https://www.digitalconstructionpodcast.com/episode/5-bold-predictions-for-the-construction-industry-with-mirco-bianchini Host: Andrea Ciaffi https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrea-ciaffi/ Guest: Mirco Bianchini https://www.linkedin.com/in/mirco-bianchini/ Most conversations about AI in construction stop at "it will make drawings faster." This one starts where the industry usually stops: the workflows, roles, and software models we have quietly accepted for years, and why they are about to be rearranged. In this episode we sit down with Mirco Bianchini, Senior Product Manager at AECOM, an architect turned parametric design specialist who now works at the intersection of product, software, and the built environment. The conversation is structured around five predictions for how agentic AI reshapes digital construction, and most of them push against the industry's defaults. 00:00 – Intro and best career advice 02:30 – Prediction 1: the app store dies 14:25 – Prediction 2: collaboration vs headcount 23:40 – Prediction 3: projects as graphs, not lists 32:25 – Prediction 4: the forward deployed engineer 41:25 – Prediction 5: the architectural flip Hosted on Acast.

  How I Built Gamma AR for the Construction Site with Caner Dolas

  Jun 22, 202658 minS1

  Rework eats 5 to 10 percent of every construction budget. On a 100-million-dollar project, that is 5 to 10 million dollars of waste no one planned for, and most of it is not a modelling failure, it is a translation failure between the BIM model and the people building from it. This conversation looks at what fills that gap. Caner Dolas, CEO and co-founder of Gamma AR, has spent the last six years building the augmented reality layer that sits between the model and the foreman, and his framing of the problem cuts past the usual demo-reel pitch around AR in construction.
