On the Road in Australia with Richard Taylor

A Recap of BiLT ANZ Conference and Visits to Sydney and Melbourne

Ideate Software’s Technical Evangelist, Richard Taylor took wing to visit Australia, September 2nd through 7th, 2024. In addition to attending the BiLT ANZ Conference, he also spent time with Ideate Software users across a variety of firms, sharing the newest efficiency-enhancing workflows and time-saving tools.


The BiLT Conference

In Melbourne, AECO professionals convened at the BiLT Conference, for three meaningful days of enlightening speakers and socializing to advance people, processes and technology in the AECO industry. The show’s compact event space was a refreshing catalyst for participants to engage with each other, sparking productive conversations and fostering new relationships.


On Friday afternoon, Richard presented “Understanding the key metrics within a comprehensive Revit Model Health Check,” which highlighted some Ideate Software customers using Ideate Automation to perform these repetitive tasks. There was an audience of over 50 attendees in the room for the main stage BiLT presentations. We’re looking forward to returning to the Sydney BiLT ANZ Conference in 2025!

He also visited with architecture firms from Sydney to Melbourne, hosting information sessions and presentations to help their team members use Ideate Software solutions to enhance their Revit workflows. Among the highlights were a deep dive into using Rooms tags across sheets and views with PTW Architects and an exciting question and answer session about Ideate Automation at Woods Bagot.
