“The industry needs to move to an integrated design approach. This is not about losing one’s data sovereignty, it is about forming teams to improve workflows and outcomes,” Viktor Várkonyi explains. “All disciplines can work with their preferred solution and on their own tasks and parameters, but in a centralized model.”

This disruptive approach will significantly change the way the different design professions work together. Today, about five percent of architects and structural engineers already work in an integrated design manner. They are the role models for what is required to make the construction industry accelerate - finally.
