Developing a common technology platform is key to integration and shifting toward a collaborative process. Vritual Design and Construction represents the leading platform; a revolutionary tool and mindset to design, construction and operation. 

• VDC provides greater design efficiency but also more accurate job costing earlier in the process. 
• VDC flushes out trade collisions that a 2D view can’t make obvious. 
• VDC allows clients to see the final result in photo realistic renderings.
• VDC allows modeling, performance testing and logistics simulation.
• VDC allows subs to fabricate components off-site saving cost, reducing waste and shortening time.
• Finally, and perhaps the most important feature, VDC creates an integrating platform. 
• Craig Janssen noted that it brings all of the trades together at the front end. A key shift in the model is the front loading of design to work out the details and bring the collective team knowledge to the table vs. the current sequential process that parcels out various stages of completion.
