By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Collaboration, Marketing, Vendors, Web 2.0
27 January 2011

I wrote a couple of weeks ago (Want to win “Best AEC collaboration application” at the Be2Awards?) about the built environment social media awards, the 2011 Be2Awards, that I am helping organise. Online nominations for the awards closed at the end of last week, and online voting across the 16 categories started on Monday 24 …

PR: Protecting reputation

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Marketing, People issues, Vendors, Web 2.0
27 January 2011

Online, businesses need to respond promptly and professionally if they are being misrepresented More than once when I was heading PR at BIW Technologies, I had to assert the company’s position in the face of misleading claims by competitors, but the process was sometimes very slow. We were reacting to printed claims in trade magazines, …

Want to win “Best AEC collaboration application” at the Be2Awards?

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Collaboration, Functionality, Marketing, Sustainability, Web 2.0
10 January 2011

The inaugural Be2awards celebrate the best in AEC use of social media and collaborative tools and techniques, including a category for best collaboration platform. In the middle of 2008, four people started a Twitter conversation about how people in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sectors might be able to use social media tools and …

Senubo to launch early 2011

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Future, Marketing, Mobile, People issues, Vendors, Web 2.0
19 October 2010

Not strictly a collaboration solution, more an expertise-oriented social network, start-up Senubo is set to launch in early 2011. Yesterday I attended a half-day workshop organised by the Construction Productivity Network focused on how to get the UK construction industry to deliver “more for less” – a topical ambition given that tomorrow the government is …

16 September 2010

Voting for the 2010 Construction Computing Awards has opened, with 20 of the 24 categories to be decided by online votes, and four to be decided by a panel of judges – something of a departure from previous years’ practice. Of course, you’ve got to be in it to win it, and there are some …

Woobius pushing the self-service SaaS offer

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Functionality, Future, Marketing, SaaS, Vendors, Web 2.0
13 September 2010

From its April 2009 launch, Woobius* has been looking to differentiate itself from competitors by virtue of its simplicity (see posts 1, 2). It still believes this is the right approach (albeit less overtly) and while most of its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) construction collaboration competitors, UK and overseas, still employ conventional sales and deployment consultants, Woobius has …

Asite’s Appbuilder and Platform-as-a-Service

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Extranet/CDE, Functionality, Future, Mobile, SaaS, Vendors
20 August 2010

UK-based construction collaboration software developer Asite is looking to emulate Salesforce‘s Force.com Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering by creating a platform to host construction-related applications built using its Appbuilder development framework. This is the latest development in the competitive world of construction collaboration technology, but is likely to be quickly emulated by Asite’s key rivals. Background Ten …

OpeningDesign.com

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Collaboration, Extranet/CDE, Functionality, Future, Internet, Marketing, People issues, SaaS, Vendors, Web 2.0
3 August 2010

Partly through my involvement with Be2camp and partly because of my interests in online collaborative spaces, I was contacted by US-based architect Ryan Shultz of Studio Wikitecture to have a look at a very early, ‘alpha stage’ website concept, OpeningDesign.com. As Ryan candidly admits, this application is still experimental, and is currently a combination of …

Websites overhauled at BIW and 4Projects

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Collaboration, Marketing, People issues, Vendors, Web 2.0
21 July 2010

The corporate websites of UK construction collaboration technology providers 4Projects and BIW Technologies* have both been refreshed recently. Despite my past involvement with BIW, I think the changes in 4Projects’ online presence are more extensive, building on website changes that the company instigated on its subsidiaries 4Retail and 4Exergy sites last year (post). 4Projects appointed …

Carbon calculation

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Collaboration, Functionality, Marketing, SaaS, Sustainability, Web 2.0
29 June 2010

Almost two years ago, when I was helping (un)organise the first Be2camp ‘unconference’ event in London, the sustainability theme that underpins this built environment/social media advocacy movement attracted contributions from several people with an active interest in calculating and then reducing the carbon footprint of the architecture, engineering and construction, AEC, sector (we had talks, …
