Come Witness the Future
of Specifying in the Making
The future of specifying is
near—learn how it will benefit your business. The Specifiers Properties
information exchange (SPie), sponsored by the National Institute of Building
Sciences, to be held Dec. 9, 8:30 am – 12:00 noon at the Washington Convention
Center (Room 154) during Ecobuild America, will showcase how a common data
standard can help designers and specifiers to manage their requirements and
select and specify products. Product manufacturers, including GE Lighting,
Eaton, BASF, US Gypsum, Wheatland and others, will show how their products can
be distributed using buildingSMART Industry Foundation Classes (IFCs) through
software such as Revit and e-SPECS. This new technology will have an enormous
impact on the industry. See how the comparative costs against conventional
practice can lead to a win-win proposition for designers, specifiers, product
manufacturers and trade associations.
The agenda will include an introduction to design;
specification and handover; business problems; the role of buildingSMART, IFC
and OmniClass Classification standards; the SCIP-CSI project to establish
specifiers’ key property sets; architectural examples from product
manufacturers; an electrical example from product manufacturers; a live
demonstration of design, specification and product selection; and the next steps
with a panel Q&A on the roll-out of SPie.
SPie is FREE and open to all registered attendees.
