James Vandezande is a registered architect and a principal at HOK in New York City, where he is a member of the firm-wide BIM leadership and is managing its buildingSMART initiatives. A graduate of the New York Institute of Technology, he worked in residential and small commercial architecture firms performing services ranging from estimating and computer modeling to construction administration. James transformed from an architect to a digital design manager in his 10-year span at SOM. In this capacity, he pioneered the implementation of BIM on such projects as One World Trade Center, aka Freedom Tower. James has been using Revit since version 3.1 and has lectured at many industry events, including Autodesk University, VisMasters Conference, CMAA BIM Conference, McGraw-Hill Construction, and the AIANYS Convention. He is a cofounder of the NYC Revit Users Group, and has been an adjunct lecturing professor at the NYU School for Continuing and Professional Studies as well as the Polytechnic Institute of NYU. James has served as the chair of the Design work group for the National BIM Standard-US and has been a long time contributor to the Level of Development (LOD) Specification.

Eddy Krygiel is a senior Business Consultant with the AEC team with Autodesk Consulting. Eddy focuses on BIM and technology workflows for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) clients. He received his bachelor's degree in architecture from the University of Kansas School of Architecture and Urban Design. He has almost 20 years of experience in architectural offices and on a range of projects from single-family residential to office, federal, civic, and aviation clients. Eddy has helped firms around the country at both the firm level and the project level.

His most recent project was the Denver International Airport, where he had the role of BIM Manager for the Program Management team. The BIM role involved supporting and steering stakeholder workflows from design through construction while not impacting the overall project fee or schedule. The final deliverable to the airport was a facility management–ready BIM model for both vertical and horizontal assets. Eddy has also led or been involved in other large-scale projects that have taken BIM beyond documentation.

Eddy is the author of more than 15 books on BIM and sustainability including the Mastering Revit series and Green BIM. He also teaches BIM, construction documents, and architectural communication at the University of Kansas School of Architecture.
