Why did you choose construction as a career?
Simply because of my immense interest in building ‘things’. I found that it offered me the opportunity to contribute to the building of facilities and infrastructure which make a difference to society and environment by supporting the way we live.
You have made BIM your area of expertise. Why?
My interest developed while undertaking a PhD study into BIM implementation within the supply chains of some major construction firms in the UK. This revealed to me the great potential of BIM from case studies of early adopters including BAM Nuttall and Laing O’Rourke. Furthermore, my personal desire is to be part of the construction transformation agenda which hinges on digitisation and automation, both of which are facilitated by BIM.
