Welcome to the New Year!
At this time of the year, many people have a short break at least. Where I live people are just starting to get back to work. So, what should you be doing for the start of the new year? I’m not a fan of New Year’s Resolutions. I don’t think they work. I am a fan of goals. They really work. When you write down a goal, and put a date on it, your brain starts to work on it for you. Before you know it, you have an idea of how to achieve your goals. Please, try writing some goals down and look at the goals every day. Goals have to be measurable, stated in the positive and have a date, otherwise they are just a weak desire.
Great News from NNA
Columbia, Maryland (January 12, 2010)—Nemetschek North America is pleased to announce that its Vectorworks® Architect software has been tested by the National 3D-4D-BIM Program with the General Services Administration (GSA, see www.gsa.gov/bim) as complying with the requirements of the BIM Guide Series 02, Spatial Program Validation. Vectorworks Architect software (version 2010, SP2) may now be used on GSA projects that require BIM.
This really is fantastic news if you are in USA, and it will allow architects to persue
more government work. Well done you hard working people at NNA!
