As always, unless you work in a specific industry, this meant making hard choices about which industry sessions to focus on (your correspondent focused mainly on the oil, gas and mining sessions). The sessions were given by members of Bentley staff and external speakers, discussing technology and industry trends.
Once again, the annual Bentley Year in Infrastructure (YII) conference was structured to give each of the infrastructure industries that Bentley’s portfolio serves its own series of sessions alongside the plenary keynotes. By revealing organizational responses to this phenomenon, this paper introduces the concept of genericity–complexity trade-off in digital integration routines to explain how firms generate routines that address integration either with ad hoc responses in projects or with systemized integrative efforts across all constellations of practice.Cambashi Report on the Bentley Year in Infrastructure (YII) 2016 Conference by Tony Industry sessions With this evidence, this research spotlights the shifting loci of information integration in practice, wherein custom agendas pressure practitioners to shift the focus of integration from their permanent practice at firms to temporary workflows in projects. By looking at and beyond a large portfolio of projects that demanded building information modeling (BIM) cloud collaboration, this study found that disparate digital agendas across projects disrupt digital integration routines, and they have knock-on effects that can overreach project boundaries and impact projects portfolios and firm operations. Through a longitudinal ethnographic study of an engineering firm, this paper explored how practitioners act upon the surge of custom digital integration agendas across multiple projects. The literature has offered only a partial understanding of this challenge due to the episodic focus on the digital delivery of individual projects or the initial adoption of digital practice in firms. The challenge for engineering firms to align with an unprecedented variation of digital integration agendas across projects is a recent phenomenon.
