Putting the social into AEC development

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Future, Marketing, People issues, Vendors, Web 2.0
22 June 2009

I have been following posts on a blog hosted by PTC, a vendor of product development technology solutions to ‘discrete manufacturers’. Its product lifecycle management (PLM) applications are widely used in the industrial, high-tech, aerospace and defence, automotive, consumer and medical device sectors. OK, not my usual industry interests, but useful nonetheless as the blog …

The internet as a lifeline for AEC SMEs

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Business/Financial, Collaboration, Extranet/CDE, Future, Internet, Marketing, People issues, Web 2.0
15 April 2009

(This is a slightly updated version of a post from my pwcom2.0 blog that discusses potential use of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), among other tactics, for managing the impact of the recession upon SMEs in the AEC sector.) Given that most of the businesses active in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sectors are small or medium-sized …

Red Nose Day goes Cloudy

By Paul Wilkinson in Blogs, Internet, Web 2.0
13 March 2009

Launched in 1985, Red Nose Day is an annual charity fund-raising programme supported by a huge range of UK organisations, schools and offices. It has even worked its magic across Twitter, Facebook, Bebo, numerous blogs and other social media – where numerous avatars, including mine, now feature temporary red noses (courtesy of DigitalRedNose.com). Among other …

6 March 2009

Sharp-eyed visitors to this blog may have noticed a new RSS feed in the side-bar – from pwcom. This is my new blog focused on PR, marketing and Web 2.0, with a strong bias towards how these are used in the architecture, engineering, construction and property sectors. I have discussed Web 2.0 a lot in …

Out of the blue: LotusLive

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Collaboration, Functionality, SaaS, Vendors, Web 2.0
19 February 2009

About a year ago, I wrote a short post about IBM’s prototype Bluehouse product (see IBM targets SME collaboration with SaaS Bluehouse). Today at Public Service Events’ Construction Project Management ’09 conference at the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, I had chance to get a quick update on latest iteration of that product from the team …

Testing times for AEC IT magazines?

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Business/Financial, Future, Internet, Marketing
16 February 2009

I spoke at last week’s CIMCIG conference on marketing in the recession. Another speaker, Andy Cassie of CIB Communications, made a few predictions about the construction marketing environment, including a suggestion that one major construction title and one architecture title might disappear (I Twittered about this at the time and it apparently prompted some concern …

Let’s make construction more ‘social’

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Collaboration, Internet, Marketing, People issues, SaaS, Web 2.0
3 February 2009

[This is a re-post of a blog article I wrote for Building Sustainable Design, which launched this week.] I have spent more than half my career in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) and property industry looking at issues relating to collaboration, and since 2000 have been focused on how to use internet-based technologies to …

3 February 2009

The first issue of Building Sustainable Design is now out, accompanied by a website, blog, multiple RSS feeds, Twitterfeed, and other features we have grown to associate with publications in the UBM (Building magazine) stable (I liked the short video welcome from editor Andy Pearson – a nice touch). Aimed at readers in the low-energy …

Tackling ‘the interweb thingy’

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, Blogs, Business/Financial, Internet, Marketing, People issues, Web 2.0
2 February 2009

Over the weekend, I enjoyed reading a BBC Business article by Tim Weber from last week’s economic summit in Davos. In How companies tackle the interweb thingy, he points out that while every company worth its salt has a website, many “are still struggling to move beyond having a colourful website towards really using the …
