“We’re viewing ourselves now as having an opportunity not only to make construction faster for designers but … to be an operating system that can connect everyone in construction,” @part3software’s Jack Sadler (@jacksads) told me. #CDNtech betakit.com/part3-serves-nor…

As architects, we do not "sign off" on orders for stuff like cabinetry, counters, rebar, windows, etc. We review shop drawings and submittals for material, spec, color, finish, etc, but *not* quantity and stuff related to field conditions. We aren't responsible for making sure shop drawings conform to field dimensions, that's on the GC. As they should want it to be! A good GC doesn't want the *architect* messing with stuff like that; a bad one does, so they can pass the buck. While we're at it, GCs, if you change a material or a spec, you need to get approval from the architect. This isn't bc architects are obsessive control freaks, this is to protect yourself. If you deviate from the CDs, without approval from the architect, it's on your head if anything fails or goes wrong. But what if what the the architect put in the drawings is wrong or a bad idea? Then send them an RFI, or an email, or bring it up in a meeting and make sure your voice is heard. If you have a legit concern, you should go on record with it, and come to the table with proposed solutions backed with real info. Proper procedures during construction protect everyone: GC, owner, and architect. (PS Developers: if you don't know how Contract Administration (aka the construction phase) should work from a legal, contractual, and liability standpoint, STOP and learn it. Messing up CA has financial and liability implications both during the project *and* during the statute of limitations after the project ends...5-7 or more years!)

If you’re still thinking about AI as a ‘feature’ you’re behind, and doing it wrong. AI is an enabler of those features and experiences you couldn’t create before. Don’t build useless AI for the sake of it, use AI to build better experiences.

Getting excited for #SAASNORTH! Part3 will be there sharing how our software is modernizing Architecture and Engineering firms across North America!!

I had a great time today chatting with Jeff about CA, Entrepreneurship and much more! Check it out and let me know if you’re in Austin next week! @EntreArchitect

For whoever needs one reminder to speak to their customers ... Speak to your customers! This last week I met with 4 accounts and the feedback has given us testimonials, ideas, and energy!

Being able to laugh with your team is so important in my opinion. The startup journey is hard enough so have fun while executing with your team.

I had the chance to share part of my story - our story - with @covcampus. Its funy how sseemingly small events can change the course f your life. coventry.ac.uk/news/2022/cle…

Jack Sadler said “I do” to Coventry University during Clearing, and went on to meet the love of his life 💙 “In your life there are many times you have to hustle, and Clearing is just the first.” Read more here: coventry.ac.uk/news/2022/cle… #RiseUp #IAmAPhoenix

"The new Site visit report tool is a great addition to an already fantastic software. Super easy to use and intuitive. Able to jump right in and the user support are quick to respond when needed" Site Reports ✅ Easy to use ✅ Customer support ✅ Still need convincing?

Product managers helping the team ship a new feature

"High highs and low lows" True - but every high is a great rush that lasts exactly 60 seconds.

Just a reminder that @part3software is hiring is business development, any BDRs ready to take on a real challenge at a fast growing startup, hit me up #bdr #salesjobs

We got a 10/10 NPS score today from someone on a team that almost derailed our startup before it got going. Startup life is all about savouring those small wins...

Sales cures all

We appreciate this sentiment...but there are a lot of questionable statements made by the co-CEO of Gensler (the largest architecture company in the world) Let's take a closer look...🧵

So perfectly summarized my daily feed 🙈

I couldn't be more proud of our team as we take another meaningful step toward achieving our mission
