In the latest episode of Design-Build Delivers, we explore the powerful role technology plays in bringing teams together on design-build projects. We were joined by Neetha Puthran and Aaron Wagner from U.S. CAD, an ARKANCE Company, along with Brian Skripac from DBIA, to discuss how common data environments (CDEs) and tools like Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) are transforming collaboration.

From overcoming long-standing barriers in communication to sharing real-world examples of technology streamlining project processes, this episode highlights practical ways teams can improve efficiency, reduce requests for information (RFIs) and ultimately deliver better results. The conversation also explores future trends in project management, including the growing influence of AI and machine learning.
