Reed Construction Data Inaugurates AIA Strategic Partnership Program

(Washington, D.C.)


In an effort to provide members with greater access to cutting edge decision making tools for their practice, the American Institute of Architects (AIA) announced an agreement with Reed Construction Data to become the first company under the new Strategic Partnership Program.  This initiative will be limited to eight companies that closely align with the Institute’s strategic initiatives and mission.  These select companies will be able to demonstrate how their products and services can better support the more than 80,000 AIA members.

“Reed Construction Data is a widely known leader in data and information systems for the design and construction industry, and it demonstrates that they recognize the value of this comprehensive opportunity,” said AIA EVP/CEO Christine McEntee. “We anticipate that this partnership will help AIA members receive timely information about the valuable products and services that Reed offers.”

Reed Construction Data CEO, Iain Melville, added, “This is a significant step for Reed Construction Data and an exciting time of change and development for the company.  By entering this partnership with the AIA, Reed positions itself at the forefront of the adoption of Building Information Modeling technology and integrated data solutions for the practice of Architecture.”

The AIA and Reed plan to release more information regarding their partnership at the upcoming AIA National Convention in Boston, May 15-17.
