AI is no longer a side conversation in AEC firm management meetings. It's THE conversation. AEC AI Acceleration Workshop gives you a clear understanding of what it can and cannot do, a practical framework for rolling it out responsibly, and immediate actions to leverage this transformative tech profitably and strategically.
This intensive 2-day executive workshop is built around one idea: your AEC firm doesn't need more hype. And you don't need to be buried in highly technical discussions. You need a plan for AI adoption.
But before you can formulate a great one, you need a foundation of knowledge to stand on equal footing with tech leads, outside consultants, and vendors. And clients asking hard questions. So you won't get oversold on AI. Instead, expect an honest, no-spin grounding in what agentic and generative AI can and cannot do.
Only PSMJ's AEC AI Acceleration Workshop is built around live demonstrations, group exercises, and hands-on activities designed to make the learning stick. Over two days that fly by, we:
You gain an understanding of what large language models and AI agents actually are, how they work in the AEC industry, and where they reliably break — so you can evaluate any vendor pitch or internal proposal with confidence instead of guesswork.
Learn a proven framework for sequencing your firm's AI rollout — from individual staff using AI tools with zero infrastructure, to department-level workflows, to firm-wide systems built on your own project data — so you never skip a step you can't afford to skip.
See the real math behind AI-assisted documentation, meeting summaries, and RFI tracking — work that can eat 20-30% of a PM's week — and walk out with a model for calculating the ROI for your own firm.
With AEC win rates often hovering around one in four, and major proposals costing tens of thousands of dollars to produce, learn how AI-assisted RFP analysis, go/no-go decisions, and first-draft proposal sections help your BD team spend less time writing and more time winning.
Understand the real risks — hallucinations, shadow AI, data governance, and licensure exposure — and leave with a "measure twice, cut once" framework for piloting, learning, and scaling AI without betting the firm on it.
No homework, no follow-up webinar required. You leave with tiered, concrete action items sized to your role and firm, plus a takeaway packet: a Tiered Framework guide, a Decision Matrix, a Glossary, and an Action Checklist.
This workshop is built for the people who set AI strategy in AEC firms and own the outcome — not just the people asked to pilot the tools.
If your whole leadership team is wrestling with the same questions, bring them. The group activities work best with more perspectives at the table.
