This was Autodesk’s mindset when developing our new workplace model for employees, simply called Flexible Workplace: Autodesk’s Flexible WorkplaceĪs we look to the future, we believe that flexibility in where and how work gets done will better enable our people to thrive-and by extension, help our customers achieve better outcomes. As our society continues to recover, it’s clear that many aspects of the post-COVID world will be very different and it’s up to us to help shape what that future will look like-including the future of our workplace. In tandem, we’re also encouraged by the widespread vaccination efforts and what they mean for collective healing ahead. We know our global community is far from ending the COVID-19 pandemic completely and our hearts remain with the many parts of the world continuing to experience its impact. We’ve even introduced COVID-conscious workspaces to help keep our employees healthy, safe, and inspired moving forward. We’ve gone digital, provided flexible customer solutions, enabled distanced learning experiences, and made an impact where it was needed most. Reflecting on this time, I’m proud of the steps Autodesk has taken to ensure its employees, partners, customers, and their respective industries are as supported as possible throughout these challenges. Is there a market for more books that deal with beginning MEP? This blogger/author very much thinks so.It’s been well over a year since the mass onset of COVID-19 across the globe and with it an abrupt disruption of the status quo, both personal and professional.Īt Autodesk, we’ve stayed vigilant, weathered an ever-evolving storm, and shown resilience as our employees, customers, and extended communities were forced to adapt to an entirely new normal. Not many WANT to admit that they are MEP-types. Granted, that Revit Architecture has been out longer, and there are many closet architectural-type people out there. And Out of the MEP, 0 (that ZERO, ZILCHO) deal with beginner users there. Out of all the books mentioned above for Architecture, 4 of them deal with ME the beginner. My point is that Revit MEP is still an untapped resource. I’ll have to dig through those in my never-ending quench for learning. Actually, that last one surprised me a bit. That’s it, folks! Two books! The list is just taken form the first page of Amazon there may be other books out there, but they are hiding pretty well for me.Įven the famed Autodesk University speakers forums were pretty much slanted towards Architecture over MEP.

Granted some of these are older versions, but the fact remains there are lots of them out there. If you jump on Amazon and do a search of Revit Architecture, it will yield a result of 297 books. While looking at resources for each, I have come to the conclusion that Revit MEP is still a vast untapped resource. During my downtime (read unemployment period), I have been self-studying with Revit Architecture and Revit MEP.
