Design & Construction communication is still primarily a paper-based system.

Unnecessarily slows and confuses the design/build process.

One of the worst causes is the government.

Another is architects.

Carbon Footprint of Paper

Why does paper pollution matter?

Pulp and paper is the third largest industrial polluter to air, water and land in both Canada and the United States, and releases over a hundred million kg of toxic pollution per year. National Pollutant Release Inventory, 1996

Carbon Footprint of Effect of Paper Process Paper is not the most efficient medium of

communication.

Gaining Clarity is Everything.

technology.

I own the entire process

Looking for better efficiencies.

Paper communication is a big problem.

Paper can slow and confuse process.
