It’s been a long time coming, and after much planning and effort I am launching my Autodesk Blog, Inside the System. This blog will focus on the MEP industry, Sustainability, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and how new technologies help to meet the demands of today’s MEP projects. This means that I’ve got a lot of ground to cover, but ultimately I hope that this provides a diverse range of useful information for all of my readers.
Many of you already know me as Kyle B on both the Autodesk and AUGI discussion forums, where I frequently post. You can find me there helping customers with technical issues, discussing larger industry issues, and soliciting customer feedback. As you can see in my picture on the left frame of the page, I’m on the younger side, 26 in fact, and as such I’m part of the internet generation. Check out my bio if you want to know more about me.
I believe that communities like discussion forums, and media like this blog, are revolutionary ways to communicate on a global scale. No longer must information be passed along from person to person through seminars and conferences. I can write a helpful tip about Revit MEP, solve a technical problem, or ask for feedback on a future product capability, and anyone on the internet with an English skill can consume that information. I encourage everyone to participate, a larger community means a larger resource of information.
This fills a critical need. As a Product Manager for Revit MEP, I am tasked with setting the year-to-year direction of Revit MEP, and working with others at Autodesk and our Reseller channel; ultimately making sure that our customers succeed with our MEP solutions. A critical component of that success is having the right information to succeed.
With that in mind, I set out on this journey through the blogosphere.
