    Description

    What if the AEC industry could build it right the first time—every time? By learning from manufacturing, it can.

    In this session, Manuel Liedot, CEO of Graitec, and Emmanuel Leroy, EVP of Graitec Solutions, will explore how Graitec is helping AEC professionals “shift left”—bringing simulation, constructability, and data intelligence earlier in the design process. This approach minimizes rework, shortens project timelines, and improves overall outcomes.

    With deep roots in both manufacturing and AEC, the speakers will demonstrate how Graitec’s strategy is transforming traditional workflows. Through real-world case studies featuring Graitec tools like Advance Steel, StrucSoft, Rebar Detailing, Simulate, and Revit integrations, attendees will see how early-stage insights lead to smarter execution.

    You'll walk away with a blueprint for moving from reactive problem-solving to proactive planning—designing with construction in mind from day one.

    Key Learnings

    • Adopt the “Shift Left” Strategy: Understand how incorporating simulation and constructability checks earlier in the design process—before decisions are locked in—drives greater efficiency, fewer errors, and faster project delivery.
    • Bridge Design and Execution with Technology: Learn how Graitec tools like StrucSoft, Advance Steel, and Rebar Detailing empower teams to coordinate earlier, enabling seamless transitions from digital design to physical construction.
    • Design for Buildability from Day One: Discover how shifting your mindset—and your toolset—upstream fosters better collaboration, reduces rework, and leads to higher-performing projects with measurable ROI.
