2002  PACE  ROUNDTABLE
AE Newsletter - Fall/Winter 2002
The 2002 PACE Roundtable was held on November 5-6, 2002 at the Penn Stater Conference Center Hotel on Penn State’s University Park campus. The PACE Roundtable is an opportunity to discuss critical industry issues, as well as exchange ideas and lessons learned with fellow industry leaders and students.

This year we made a special effort to include owners and design professionals in the event to discuss: “Engaging Owners in the Building Process.The focus was on timely and specific topics of current interest to members of the building industry.  The main discussion topics, identified by the PACE Advisory Board, were:

 
  • Project Delivery - Refining RFP and Contract Award Processes
  • Green Team Building - Strategies for Green Building and LEEDS Projects
  • Managing Risk - Insurance Strategies and Risk Assessment
  • Technology for Teams - How Project Teams Can Capitalize on CAD and IT

Nearly 50 industry participants comprising owners, architects, engineers, and contractors attended this year’s event as well as AE 5th year students, graduate students and faculty. Students will conduct research on the topics raised during the discussion and present their results at our PACE Research Seminar on April 23-34, 2003 in Washington, DC.
