Location plays a crucial role in AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) projects. It affects design decisions, accessibility to resources and labor, compliance with local regulations, stakeholder engagement, and project coordination, which ultimately impact the feasibility, sustainability, and success of a project. However, it is often ignored in many AEC projects. In this session, we will discuss the significance of location and how it should be defined early on in all AEC projects to ensure that we can leverage its full potential in all project phases (plan, design, build, operate).
