BUCK FIM - S2 E2 - Warren Dietrich, Pomerleau & Ashleigh Dixon, LLSC

Everyone wants better collaboration. Few people are willing to talk about what's actually getting in the way. On this episode of BUCK FIM, Brought to you by CODiii - The Design & Construction Brain, I sit down with Warren Dietrich from Pomerleau and Ashleigh Dixon from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada to explore what happens when construction leadership and community leadership collide. We get into: • Why collaboration breaks down under pressure • The difference between accountability and alignment • The tools we rely on and the ones that create more friction than they solve • What construction and fundraising can learn from each other • How Light the Night became a real-world test of teamwork across industries Different worlds. Same challenges. If you've ever wondered why collaboration sounds easy but feels impossible, this episode is for you. 👉 Episode drops June 9th. #Construction #Leadership #Collaboration #LightTheNight #Pomerleau #BuckFimPodcast #AECO

BUCK FIM - S2 - Episode 2 - Jeffrey McGrew w/ Motif

Is BIM a single source of truth, or just a beautiful lie? Everyone says the AECO industry is undergoing a digital transformation. We’ve got AI agents, new platforms, and massive cloud ecosystems. Yet, billion-dollar projects are still quietly running on spreadsheets, screenshots, and frantic phone calls. Why do the same friction points survive every single generation of software? On Season 2 Episode 2 of Buck Fim, we are tearing down the pitch decks and digging into the messy reality where software collides with human behavior. To unpack this, I sat down with Jeffrey McGrew, Architect, Builder, and Senior Product Manager at motif, alongside a surprise CODiii Crossfire appearance by Jillian Northrup. We didn’t hold back. We get into: The "BIM Blah.0" Reality Check: Why today's core tools are running on ideas from the 70s, built in the 80s, and why platforms need to be radically more flexible. Vibe Coding & Version Control: Why AI agents can't just be turned loose on a drawing set without the architectural equivalent of Git (and why liability demands it). Compositional Design vs. Rigid Schemas: The breakdown of object-oriented data models when faced with real-world procurement and manufacturing. The Communication Chasm: What actually happens on-site when trades hit an unconstructible detail and "do it their way" without a feedback loop back to the office. If you are tired of hearing about idealized workflows and want to talk about how we actually bridge the gap between theory and execution, this episode is for you. 👉 Episode drops June 2nd. Tune in, subscribe, and let’s start breaking the norm.
