SAVE THE DATE: Building Information Modeling (BIM): Identifying the Risks and Liabilities
Date: February 29th
Time: Reg/Breakfast - 7:15 - 8 a.m.
Program - 8 - 9 a.m.
Place: Goodwin Procter
53 State St., Boston, MA
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the process of generating an accurate digital representation of a project that allows the development team (architects, engineers, builders and owners) to deliver highly integrated design and construction solutions. BIM facilitates a highly collaborative process and it is being promoted as a solution to reduce inefficiencies in building design and construction.
There are many unanswered questions
surrounding this technology, including:
* Does the joint sharing of data that is so integral to BIM create liability among project participants?
* Who is responsible for the final work product?
* Who owns and who has the rights to the intellectual property and the final design?
Join us when a panel of BIM users are joined by law and insurance experts to discuss the legal and practical considerations of using BIM.
Panelists:
Michael Herlihy
Executive Vice President/Partner
Ames & Gough Insurance Agency, Inc.
John Sullivan
Project Designer
Spagnolo Gisness & Associates, Inc.
John Tocci
