AI: The Next Era for AE Firms

AI is transforming how architecture and engineering firms deliver work. Once futuristic, these technologies—from generative design and robotics to AI scheduling—are now shaping how the built environment is designed and delivered. AI is also emerging as the foundation for managing people and projects more efficiently through connected, intelligent systems. In this session, we’ll explore how AI adoption is redefining performance across firms and reshaping an industry long known for resisting change.

IN THIS SESSION, ATTENDEES WILL:

1. Identify the primary categories of AI tools emerging in the A&E market, from generative design and analysis to knowledge management and operational automation.
2. Describe the three-level framework of AI impact: automating tasks, optimizing operations, and predicting outcomes.
3. Differentiate between AI for 'automating tasks' and 'optimizing operations,' and explain why this shift represents a new strategic inflection point for A&E firms.
   
4. Explain how applying the three levels of AI to the core function of resource management acts as a "fulcrum" to connect people, projects, and profitability.
5. Understand how relevant tools, acting as a unified AI operating system, can be applied to improve team well-being, optimize workloads and drive firm-wide profitability.
