BECOME AN A3 THINKER

In today’s hustle and bustle world, facility owners issue Requests for Proposals on an A3 and concurrently require responders to produce proposals in this preferred format. Alleviating both production time for the AEC firm and review time for the facility owner, the industry continues to lean into Lean Principles. AEC firms and facility owners share a goal to simplify the procurement process and demonstrate innovative, vivid ways to share information.
